VR head position save option (question/help)

Hello, I have Steam Index + base stations that are fixed to walls.

Every time I start DCS the position where my vr headset situated when the game initialises will be the zero position in the game, so I need to recenter view every time if the headset wasn't on my head the moment the game launched.

Is there a way to tell dcs to save my desired center head position so it keeps it event AFTER the restart ???

I don't want to manually recenter my position every time since my simpit is in fixed spot and not moving.

I hope I am clear.

Thanks

RAlt and Num0 is usually the save function for recentre I believe

As far as i know there is no possibility to save your vr/trackir head positon so that you don't need to recenter, you would need to have your head in the exact same position every time anyway. :dunno:

But there is a "recenter VR headset" options in the controlls menu, i have bind that to a key on my HOATS. Startup DCS, put on your VR headset and push the button, finished.

If you know this option already, just ignore me. :beer:

Doesn't work in VR, at least i can't get it to work. Reverts always to the default position. VR center does work.

This^^^^ also helps with looking at switches next far left or right.

It does work and help. Recenter VR recenters to the view you configured with RAlt+Num0.

In other words, get yourself a suitable position with the help of recenter and the rest of of NumX buttons. For me it's normally height and distance to the cockpit front. When in a comfortable position, store it with RAlt+Num0. Now, when pressing Recenter, it will take the position you stored last in RAlt+Num0.

Well, for me it doesn't.

In VR i'm always sitting to low so i move the camera up and a bit forward (forward depends on the airplane). I then hit RAlt-Num0 but the next mission i'm low in my seat again, no difference if i save the cockpit angels or not.

There is at least something written to the snapview.lua since it changes date and hour when i press RAlt-Num0 but it doesn't work.... ever.

Been trying and looking for a solution since i went VR back in november 2019.

It has never worked for me either.

And the ‘Recenter VR’ binding doesn’t work for you?

It has always worked for me, and each of the aircraft in my collection have my position preference stored.

Yes, the Recenter_VR works but that's not the same thing.
