Using a button to switch from 2D to VR

Recommended Posts

Since I got my G2 headset over a year ago I have set the L/G button on my throttle to switch from VR to 2D and back. Now, over the last couple of months the button is hit and miss. I have since assigned other buttons to the same task and they too work only on occasion. There is no pattern. So, I can't do much troubleshooting. I find it very frustrating to have to ESC out and go to General Options just to go back and forth.

Has anyone else struggled with this issue? If so, was there a fix? Or is this just another MS broke something new while trying to fix something else?

I have assigned a button on my Thrustmaster Airbus stick for 2D-VR and it's been workling flawlessly since.

You can, of course use the keyboard (I think it was Strg+Tab) as a backup.

Kind regards, Michael

Yep same, got a button on my SNES controller to turn on/off VR, works a treat since forever, the annoying thing is when I accidently press it during flight🤦‍♂️ might have rebind it elsewhere.
