January 18, 20188 yr It is nearly one year since I have my Oculus Rift now. Until June 2017, I used it with FSX, thereafter I shifted to P3D v4. I have completely left flat screen flying. To me, the PMDG 737, 747 and 777 are most addictive in VR. Cockpit visuals are no problem - I use the FlyInside software with its zoom function. But there is one thing which disturbs the immersion in the 737: from time to time, the cockpit sounds cut out for a short moment. This occurs more frequently (up to every few seconds) when approaching an fps-heavy airport. The CDU of the 747 and 777 both have the option to keep sound while not in focus, which is a proper countermeasure. The 737, however, lacks this feature. PMDG, could you please add it to the 737?

Michael Yes, I have noticed that too. Toggling the Q on your keyboard to switch sound off and on again usually does the trick, but it can become annoying to have to do so regularly.

March 18, 20188 yr I usually fly the NGX, I always fly vr, but I’ve never noticed this. Maybe I don’t use FPS heavy airports. Or it may be that I fly native VR, not FI.
