I saw the setup.  One thing to add maybe, remind the axis the long barreled pnzr4F is the appropriate version over the short barrel.  I think it defaults to short barrel.

Tried vr in a tank last night and the view from the main gun doesn't seem to work?

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

It might be something simple like moving your head forward to an eye piece to look through, but I havent used VR in a tank yet. I know in a bomber you have to look down to look through the bomb site.

Yeah, it took me a while before I figured it out since the short barreled options are the last 3 of 7 loadouts.  I'm probably wrong in that it defaults to the short barrel, so it should be good to go.

It was like the view was super close up with the mouse dot being this huge orb..

I'll try to lean into it tonight and see if it gets better

Similar to popping out the speed and climb rates on planes, there's a "vehicle armor" line to click that gives this data on penetration and armor protections.
