AV8BNA VR Pilot in the works.

Finally no more empty cockpit. I think the pilot's body is excellent. This increases immersion enormously.
 
I am very happy to see the Harrier back on the road to success. Please keep up the good work.
 
I'm already looking forward to your MiG 23. 😀

Yep, that's my feeling too in M-2000C.

Just shift your head back while looking straight ahead, and hit VR reset command (or Numpad 5).

Then it's ok, when I look down I feel like wearing the flight suit 😄

 

Even better way is to use the keyboard numpad commands to move the viewpoint forward/backward and up/down (left/right is not required) to position your head properly with the 3D pilot. And then hit that Viewpoint Save (IIRC AltGr + Shift + Num5) to store it as the default. Now you can at any given point just reset your viewpoint normally and you are in proper position.

 

Now the next level 3D pilot cockpits that should be raced by different studios who is first to implement are:

1) Hands move with the virtual gloves.

2) Upper torso moves by the head position (leaning)

3) Head moves with the head, so you see right in the mirrors etc.

4) Virtual hands cast shadows 😉

 

That is the next gen version when ED makes such possible.

The Pilot looks superb.

I just love sitting in this air frames Pit, it just looks like a well worn marine that gets better and better with time.

 

Razbam,

Please please please allow the DCS main menu selection of “show pilot body in cockpit as default” to decide whether the pilot is shown as standard in cockpit. I feel this selection in the main menu is self explanatory and as an adult I knew what I was getting into when I clicked it.

 

For the majority of users that hate the pilot body in cockpit then I would suggest not clicking the “show pilot body in cockpit as default” icon in the standard menus as it may offend them.

 

Razbam…… you are the kings of pilot figures in pits, please act like it.

A big +1 on everything @Rogue Trooper said above!

 

I recently rediscovered the AV8B and I totally fell in love with it. The pilot body is next level! RAZBAM, you're doing yourself short by not showing the pilot body by default 😉

@Timghetta

Your pilot's bodies are currently the measure of all things in DCS. 
Would it be conceivable that you create pilot bodies for other Devs? (Of course you should be paid!)

An A10C, Mi-24P, MiG21 with one of your pilot's bodies, that would be great. 

Just the question: Would it be conceivable?

I concur, the VR pilot looks fantastic and great inmersion booster.
When I take out my headset, and come back to the sim moments later, my VR needs to be recentered. In those moments Im scared by the Sleepy Hollow fighter pilot lol
