Strange problem.

@ dogmanbird, Thank you for the information, looks like the Reverb is. @ eslader, Thank you also for that, although Beat Saber is not my thing -

Strange problem.
RichD replied to RichD's topic in Virtual Reality (VR) for Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Thanks for the advice but I'm glad to say (for now) that it's sorted. You see my Quest 2 has died and I'm not replacing it with another. I'm looking into getting either a Reverb G2 or HTC Vive (both used) as they plug in graffic cards. If you know of any going, please let me know.. Thanks -
Strange problem.
RichD replied to RichD's topic in Virtual Reality (VR) for Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Once I get the best result, I do not change anything. The setting's are retained and are the same next day but liken I say, the sum does not run the same. One thing I have noticed and not heard anyone say anything about it is when I start the sim is, when the logo video for ASOBO plays, it will stick/hang for a split second, not sure why. BTW, FPS is not a problem, I can live with what I get. Just want smoothness. -
Hi everyone, looking for help. Everyday, I spend hours trying to get msfs to run smoothly and most times I succeed. However, every time I shut down the computer for the night and start it the next day, I'm back to trying to get it back to how it was the night before. Every time.... Any ides would by helpful. This only applies to vr. I'm using quest 2 with openxr toolkit, oculus tray tool on Windows 11 Thank you in advance. Rich

Advice for a VR headset please.

Thank you for your help, but I'm resolved to a change now. Too much trouble for me. Rich -
Advice for a VR headset please.
RichD replied to RichD's topic in Virtual Reality (VR) Hardware and Games
Hi, The quest 2 is fine until I connect it to the pc, either link cable or air. When I start it, I see the desktop fine, I can move my head and there is no lag or distortion. When I fire msfs, it starts to lose tracking and resolution. And when I come out of vr, back to the desk top, it goes black. When I go to the oculus home page, it like watching water go down a plug hole. I've also spent hours trying to get it to look right and smooth but to no avail. I' be used all the recommended software and reinstalled it move time's than I like to count, so I'm after a dedicated headset that plugs into the RTX rather than USB. Thank you for your time and advice. Rich -
I currently have a poorly Oculus Quest 2 and to be honest, I've not been to impressed by it using MSFS. I'm currently looking into either a Reverb G2 or a HTC Vive, and I'd like some advice into which one is best to run on a RTX 3060. Thank you in advance. Rich

Stuck on Syncing Data screen
RichD replied to stratfordman10's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Here is what I do after reading about the problem. 1. Sign out of the Microsoft store. 2. Sign out of the Xbox app. 3. MOST important, restart computer. 4. Sign in to Xbox then Microsoft store. 5. Start the sin. Try that. -
Kodiak Amphibian announced today
RichD replied to Bobsk8's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Yes Bobsk8, simming since MS98 I appreciate the input and I didn't find it condescending. -
Kodiak Amphibian announced today
RichD replied to Bobsk8's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Kind of, it's not that it's a bad aircraft, but the developers seem to forget that different yokes have different amounts of length movement in them. Logitech yokes have 8 cm full travel, where as the Honeycomb has 16cm and the Velocity has 21 cm full travel. That's all well and good, but sometimes it doesn't solve the problem. Anyway, this these is about the release of the Kodiak, so I'll leave it there. -

Well, lets hope they make the flight model cfg available. Not everyone has 12 or 8 cm of elevator movement on there yoke's. -
Cessna Yoke Distance From Instrument Panel?
RichD replied to monkeysuncle's topic in The Home Cockpit Support Forum
Oh I see. The best thing I would suggest is look up c172 cockpit on youtube and judge from that. -

Poll: Significant problems after SU9 install?
RichD replied to Noel's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
You can say what you want but they don't listen. They are intent on following their schedule regardless, I even think they get confused between Xbox and pc. Me, well I'll have to wait another month or two before they fix it, but more then likely it'll be another set of broken opportunities. -
Request help with REACTIVITY on CONTROL OPTIONS.
RichD replied to LRBS's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Same issue here. Been using flight SIM since fs98 and everyone since and feel the hurt when they mess up. As for the extremity dead zone, one of the best tings they have come up with. I use a Mad Catz Pro Flight Cessna Yoke, which has a short moment (4cm forward and 4cm aft) and I use Extremity Dead Zone to control the amount of yoke/stick movement in the sim, making it far better to control. Rich -
Thank god I'm not the only one. I have a Mad Catz Pro Flight Cessna Yoke, and since update 8, I have been having problems saving the profile for any aircraft. Because the Mad Catz Pro Flight Cessna Yoke has a short moment (4cm forward and 4cm aft) I use Extremity Dead Zone to control the amount of yoke/stick movement in the sim. After the update, I can set it to what I need and save it. However, if I close the sim and restart it, I always have to reset Extremity Dead Zone. When I look at the profile, and compare it to an old one, Extremity Dead Zone is missing. In the old profile it is referred to as AxisOutDeadZone. Here follows what I mean:- Old profile; <Axis AxisName="X" AxisSensitivy="19" AxisSensitivyMinus="19" AxisNeutral="0" AxisDeadZone="0" AxisOutDeadZone="9" AxisResponseRate="1050"/> New profile; <Axis AxisName="X" AxisSensitivy="0" AxisSensitivyMinus="0" AxisNeutral="0" AxisDeadZone="0"/> If they were aware of it, why didn't they fix it, instead of winding us up with the issue. Another mounth to wait, please get it right this time

Hi Mario, Yes I tried it......no it didn't work but thanks for the advice.
