ATC Window in VR - Help needed

[D-man 10]

Greetings all,

Can anyone pass me a clue on how to bring up an ATC window while in VR?
Is it possible or am I just missing how to do it?

Thanks in advance...

Which P3D Version?

Addon ATC or do you mean the default ATC window?

Normally it is just done by entering VR and hitting the button (or new assigned joystick button) for ATC, it should show up slightly above your center view and slightly to the right.

For better positioned windows in VR copy and paste this section within the "missionpanels.cfg" at your sim root "gauges" directory.

These will bring up the windows more within you view and much more usable. So you don´t have to reposition them so much or not at all.

You have to paste them and caution that you match the "window" numbers. This is for ATC, GSX and third party windows (like weather with ASP3D).

Backup you original file before. Should something go wrong, paste it back and you are good to go.

Copy the part "in between" the lines

Thanks MPO910..
I'm on P3D 5.1 and Stock ATC.

Before reading this I finally found the ATC window floating high above the cockpit glass (somewhere I never look in my go to 172). However in VR I'm unable to reposition the window in real time.
I'll try your repositioning tip in hopes to bring it down.

Cheers!

Yes it should! You can do hardly anything wrong. Report back, also if you need help!
