IS VR BROKEN?!
« on: April 15, 2019, 12:11:42 PM »
My VR expierence is NOW a complete dumpster fire.



No mouse support, so I have to look where I want to click.. great.. EXCEPT Looking down makes the clipboard go down, looking up makes it go up, so it VERY VERY VERY hard to get the dot on what I want to click.

then when I FINALLY get into the tower the clipboard is so far away its unusable and same issue.. the CLIPBOARD MOVES WITH THE VIEW.. so if I try to look at it, IT MOVES AWAY.


Ive been  playing this game in VR for a long time now I cant even get airborn did something change?

So to clarify, EVERYTHING on the screen moves when you move your head..  if the clipboard is just to the left of where you are looking and you turn left to look at it, it moves left as you turn left.


Things Ive tried:

Reboot

Checked other games: DCS, Xplane 11.  no issues.

Looked for settings.. nothing of use.

game is currently unplayable.

Which headset and software are you using? My Rift works normally.

It sounds like you're moving your head position instead of your view.

Do you have recenter mapped to a button in AH?

Rift CV1

Fresh install of the game havent mapped anything.

Cannot get to the option to map anything because its so screwed up.

Going to do a full reinstall to make sure something didnt just mess up, will update

It may be something was mapped by the installation. Take off the headset and go full screen and you should be able to see your settings.

did reinstall and logged in without VR, checked settings, recenter tracker is set to CTRL+F4


Issue persists, EVERYTHING moves with the headset, the background logo, the menus, everything.


EDIT:  when I log in it prompts to press a button to recenter, when I do that the clipboard pops down and to the left instead of to the center, then if I try to look down and left to click anything the board moves down and left as well until it bottoms out and I can click on it.

I am VERY familiar with this game both with and without VR, this has never happened.

Log in with VR then take the headset off. Then recenter if needed. Then check mappings and settings.

Ok so I see what the issue is, but Have no idea WHY.

things are "snapped" to me that should not be.

for example..  If I go in the tower...  and look left and right.. the tower MOVES WITH ME as well as the clipboard but the airfield is seen as expected.

it has nothing to do with recentering.


For example: At the main splash screen,  I can recenter all day long.  the background AH logo and the clipboard move as I look around instead of being stationary. Even if everything is centered, if I look left EVERYTHING moves to the left.. etc etc.

Are you launching from the desktop icon?

Did you try renaming the Setting folder?

Curious if the Steam version has the same issue.

Thats what I thought, I switched to 1 sensor, no change, back to 2, verified both are working in Oculus Home and DCS,  no issues,  only with AH.



EDIT:

I managed to get into a plane on the runway.  I figured maybe the issue is just with the menus, so i tried to get past that to fly, no joy The scenery moves as expected but the aircraft/cockpit moves with the head movement, same as the tower.  Instead of looking left and right within the aircraft, the entire cockpit shifts left and right.
