Thanks for the reply Joe! So, switching to stereo mode fixes it for now? Is that right? What version of Flyinside are you running? I’m at 1.92. Any word out there on an update to Flyinside? I added myself to the LM forum. Man, I’m hoping they fix it soon. I gotta practice my carrier traps before DCS releases the F-18C! Hehe! Lol Ray

Hey Guys! I’m having the same issue in VR with the Oculus. I finally got the Superbug to work right using native VR with P3D V4.2. I am now getting weird visuals when approaching and landing on the carriers. When I’m on the overhead at 800 feet, I can see the support structures of the ship, but not the deck! What the Hell is that?! :) The actual markings of the deck slowly appear as I’m coming over the ramp! Once I turn off to a CAT, I can see elevation issues on the deck itself. Objects on the deck appear and disappear as I move my head around. Any idea what that is and how I may be abled to fix it? Reinstalling AICarriers2 and the Nimitz did not help. Is also happening with the acceleration carrier as well. I’ve never seen anything like that before! I’m running the latest NVidia driver with a 1080. I can’t run that addon with Flyinside because is not compatable. The frame rates and studdering are all over the place. I’m getting really good performance in native VR with some minor studderings. Ray

Bill thank you man! I added myself to the issue over there. Thanks again for the help! Ray

Hey Guys! I posted this as well in the VRS forums, but I’m posting here to see if anyone has ever seen anything like this. I finally got the Superbug to work right using native VR with P3D V4.2.

Dave, what pixel density are you running it at? I run mine at 1.5. I gotta be honest though, I went back to the Track IR with P3D man. Seems that lately I’ve been having lots of stutters and visual jerking that I can’t figure out how to get rid of. This is despite good frame rates. Is just happening with P3D V4 with any airplane. Ray

Are you running P3D V4 with Flyinside or native? What are your frame rates like with the PMDG 74? I also get flashes every now and then. Are you getting those? Ray

I have an i7 7700K with an Nvidia 1080, and 32 Gigs of RAM. Ray

Angelo, I have the Riff. Don’t know any others. Perhaps someone in the forum has compared the two and can give you better info. Native VR for me in P3D V4 was not good at all! I was getting lots of video stutters and the frame rates sucked! Ray

777?! Wow man, you’re flying with the big boys! 😆 That’s awesome Dave! I love a Boeing man. I flew the 727 freighter on all three seats, and that was my old time favorarte! It was fast and if you can see the airport, you can land on it! I’m hoping JetBlue gets a wide body some day. I’d like a chance to fly one before I retire. The Airbus is the easiest airplane I’ve ever flown. Can make you a very lazy pilot! 😆 Yeah man, get that Oculus setup. I love that thing! The resolution could be better, but man, the level of immersion is unbelievable! I fly DCS World as well, and that in VR is an amazing experience! So far the best performers in VR is DCS World and Aerofly FS2. Don’t get me wrong, P3D V4 is awesome in itself, but as far as the lighting, and the smooth frame rates, I think those two are the best. Also, Navigraph is a must if you’re going to fly P3D V4 with FlyInside. You can import that window and is like having your own EFB in the airplane. Is awesome! I know I’m an aviation geek! 😂 Ray

The A320 man! I still have that childhood curiosity of how other airplanes fly! You?

Flying the PMDG airplanes in VR is absolutely awesome! I highly recommend it. The best performance, frame rate wise, is the 737, followed by the 777. The 747 appears to be the most demanding in PC performance, but it is my favorite, and I fly it often. Ever since I got the Oculus, I’ve never gone back to the Track IR! It is absolutely amazing! Ray

Thanks whamil. Doing further troubleshooting I found I didn't have engine sounds on ANY airplanes! I solved it by performing a full reset of the SteelSeries headset system, and reprograming a profile. That worked! Thanks Again for the reply man. I appreciate it. Take care. Ray

Hello! Just purchased this airplane and I'm getting no engine sound among others. When I load the airplane, I just hear what sounds like the igniters, and the "TAWS systme test okay" from the GTN750 from Flight1. No gear retraction/extension sound, wind noise etc. Any ideas where to start? Windows 10 Home i7 7700K Nvidia GTX 1080 SteelSeries Siberia 800 Oculus Rift (Not using the Oculus sound) Thanks guys. Any help will be appreciated! Ray

Very cool! Man, I love that airplane! Looking forward for this one! Ray "Bones" Lemus

Cool Kyle. Good stuff! I've noticed weird behavior when trying to reverse the spoiler axis as an example using FSUIPC. I just can't get that to work properly. Looking at the Introduction manual (06OCT14 SP1c), it recommends to NOT calibrate the axis using FSUIPC. Since reversing the axis uses the calibration section of FSUIPC, I can see where the issues come in. To prevent any issues, I'm going to set a profile specific to the 777 without any axis. I'll simply check "enable controllers" within P3D. Thanks again Kyle. Pete and Cory thanks for contributing guys. Learned something! Raudel "Ray" Lemus

Oh, okay. Is running okay though using the axis with FSUIPC. Do you know off hand what issues I can have running it that way? So, just to make sure I understand: I can assign key commands using FSUIPC, but NOT the axis? So, when I fly this airplane, I have to check "Enable Controllers"? Is that right? Thanks man for taking the time.

Never mind guys. I figured it out! Operator error! Turns out I didn't noticed the yokes were minimized. When they are in such a state, the animation is disabled. Guess it was a good idea to put power on the airplane and check the flight controls page! See Yah! Kyle, thanks for the reply. What do you mean by "in the sim menus"?

Hey Guys! I'm trying to setup my flight controls with the 777 through FSUIPC, and I can't get the elevators and ailerons to work. No problems with the 737 or any other airplane. They show up fine within the FSUIPC axis menus, but when I get in the VC, nothing! They even register okay within the joystick calibration section. This is using ANY type of controller axis. The trottles as axis work just fine. What's special about the 777? Any ideas how to fix it? P3D Ver. 3.4 FSUIPC Ver. 4.95b Thanks!

Hi John! Man, I'm really sorry you feel that way man. Believe me when I tell you that I respect your opinion, but I think your perception appears a little extreme. People get killed every day while driving, but we can't stop driving man! A visit to the flight deck while the airplane is at the gate is NOT a big deal, and is perfectly safe! Even if someone puts a gun to my head to take the airplane, it'll take a team of people to just take the airplane off the gate! Pilots, kids, and aviation enthusiasts come up to take a look and ask questions on a regular basis when I'm working. We can't just blindly shot out aviation enthusiasts like yourself because there have bee terrorists acts involving airplanes throughout the world. We have to take precautions of course and follow security procedures, but just completely lock out everyone simply implies that the terrorists have really won the war! If I'm at the gate, and I have time, I'll be happy to show you guys the office. Come on in and take a look! Just don't touch nothing! :-) Ray

Hi Robert! I would ask during boarding if is possible to visit prior to departure. If the visit is granted, then ask if you could take that picture. If the flight crew is not too busy, you may take that picture right there and then! I normally ask to come up during deplaning, as most of the time we're busy trying to get the airplane ready for flight during boarding. Good luck and don't be embarrassed to ask man! Hopefully you get a cool flight crew!

Send fifty thousand US dollars cash, unmarked, un-sequential to every member of the forum offended! Lol Just kidding! Yep! I saw that man! It was misinterpreted and you did apologize. That's cool of you. I just thought it was some funny ###### how fast and brutal you jumped on the guy, that's all. See Yah!

Slow down there 77West! It was clearly an innocent request in a freandly forum! :-) Have you considered going into litigation? Lol

Guys thank you for the replies! I'll try all of the above and post here when I get back home. Thanks! Ray Lemus

Anyone!..............anyone!............Don't all of you jump on this one at once! Lol :-) Ray Lemus

Hey Guys! Does anyone have any difficulty disconnecting the autopilot with just the joystick mapped with the "z" command? Everytime I've tried to use the button mapped to the autopilots disconnect, I see the button action on the MCP being pressed but the autopilot does NOT disconnect. The only way I can succesfuly disconnect it is by clicking the yoke autopilot disconnect using the mouse, or by right clicking the screw on the MCP. Other than the issues reported and this one, I've had no other issues with this airplane. PMDG, you guys have totally impressed me again! Keep up the awesome work! See Yah! Ray Lemus
