Habu_69 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 In 2.5.5 DCS, with the VR Option enabled, could be started in normal monitor mode with the suffix --force_disable_VR added to the Icon Properties Target. This modifier is not recognized by 2.5.6. Has anyone found a way to accomplish opening DCS in non-VR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works for me: --force_disable_VR You need to enable run as administrator on all shortcuts and .exe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle_01 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 The no vr command line option works for me.

Chapa Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 The command works for me. Updated without Skatezilla but the normal way. The shortcuts have don’t changed with the update. As a reminder, the command is done with dcs.exe instead of dcs_updater.exe i7 12700k, RTX 3080ti, 64GB RAM, M.2 512Go, Quest 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habu_69 Posted February 17, 2020 Author Share Posted February 17, 2020 Got it. Works with DCS.exe, but not Updater.exe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mosslman Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Still no go for me, DCS.exe and DCS_Updater both set to run as admin and shortcut set as "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin\DCS.exe" --force_disable_VR I don't use Skatezilla (should I?) since I prefer minimal stuff running.

Svsmokey Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 (edited) Still no go for me, DCS.exe and DCS_Updater both set to run as admin and shortcut set as "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin\DCS.exe" --force_disable_VR I don't use Skatezilla (should I?) since I prefer minimal stuff running. My version openbeta 2.5.6.49798 Use Skatezilla :) i close it as soon as i see the "logging in" screen . No overhead . I really don't get the "command line" bs . It offers no advantage but the opportunity for a syntax error . Technology is supposed to work for us , not the other way 'round Edited June 3, 2020 by Svsmokey 9700k @ stock , Aorus Pro Z390 wifi , 32gb 3200 mhz CL16 , 1tb EVO 970 , MSI RX 6800XT Gaming X TRIO , Seasonic Prime 850w Gold , Coolermaster H500m , Noctua NH-D15S , CH Pro throttle and T50CM2/WarBrD base on Foxxmounts , CH pedals , Reverb G2v2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mosslman Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Nope, still just opens the first window and then dissapears, no message. I used to write stuff for MSDOS so quite happy with command line switches :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobaz Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 I usually start DCS with the oculus app, which I prefer until last update. I used Skatezilla's updater for somes things, & it works to start DCS. What changed with this update? How can I get back?
