Al-Azraq Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Hi! With TrackIR you can get your head out of the cockpit. It looks bad and it also offers some advantage as you can check angles that you shouldn't be able to. 4 4 i7 12700KF | MSI Z690 A-PRO | Corsair Vengeance 2x16 gb @ 3200 Mhz | RTX 3070 Ti FE | Acer XB271HU 1440P 144HZ | Virpil T-50 CM throttle | Virpil WarBRD Base + MongoosT-50 CM2 Grip | MFG Crosswind | TrackIR 5 | HP Reverb G2 Bf 109 K-4 | Fw 190 A-8 | Spitfire LF Mk.

Al-Azraq Posted March 22, 2020 Author Share Posted March 22, 2020 Just an update: it seems it only happens in multiplayer as I was practicing landings using the included mission and it was perfect there. 2 i7 12700KF | MSI Z690 A-PRO | Corsair Vengeance 2x16 gb @ 3200 Mhz | RTX 3070 Ti FE | Acer XB271HU 1440P 144HZ | Virpil T-50 CM throttle | Virpil WarBRD Base + MongoosT-50 CM2 Grip | MFG Crosswind | TrackIR 5 | HP Reverb G2 Bf 109 K-4 | Fw 190 A-8 | Spitfire LF Mk.

JG13Wulf Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 (edited) Just an update: it seems it only happens in multiplayer as I was practicing landings using the included mission and it was perfect there. Maybe not only in MP. I just tried some flight with it on my server with a friend. First 2 plane I used : No problem But for the 3 : Get the bug. I took all the time the same slot (dark and cold on the ground with open cockpit at spawn). *confirm I got both in MP and SP Edited October 16, 2020 by JG13~Wulf 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al-Azraq Posted April 28, 2020 Author Share Posted April 28, 2020 Hi! Any update on this, it really looks bad when it happens which is quite often. Also it gives you advantage as you can see angles that otherwise you wouldn’t be able to. 2 i7 12700KF | MSI Z690 A-PRO | Corsair Vengeance 2x16 gb @ 3200 Mhz | RTX 3070 Ti FE | Acer XB271HU 1440P 144HZ | Virpil T-50 CM throttle | Virpil WarBRD Base + MongoosT-50 CM2 Grip | MFG Crosswind | TrackIR 5 | HP Reverb G2 Bf 109 K-4 | Fw 190 A-8 | Spitfire LF Mk.

Wiggy Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Bump this thread. It appears this bug is back. With the canopy closed, using TrackIR, you can stick your head through the canopy glass. Screenshot attached. View limits adjustment I guess? Cheers, Wiggy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xvii-Dietrich Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Another report on the "head-out-of-cockpit with TrackIR" bug. This is difficult to reproduce, but I think I've found a reliable way to get it to fail. Versions: Date of test: 31 July 2020 DCS: Open Beta v 2.5.6.52437 Module: FW 190 A-8 EA Map: Normandy Preparation: New mission, Normandy map, 2x FW 190 A8, cold start Run the mission on my own server My procedure: Start the mission and spawn into one aircraft. With the canopy still open (default), you can move your head outside (correct). Close the canopy With the canopy now shut, you can no longer move your head outside (correct). Switch to a new aircraft. With the canopy of the new aircraft still open (default), you can move your head outside (correct). Close the canopy With the canopy now shut, you can no longer move your head outside. (Correct.) You can switch to a different new aircraft again if you wish and it will keep working in a similar fashion. Now, this time before switching... re-open the canopy. <-- This is the important point. With the canopy of the aircraft now open again, you can move your head outside (correct). But... Switch to a new aircraft. With the canopy of the new aircraft still open (default), you can move your head outside (correct). Close the canopy You can now still move your head outside the canopy. This is INCORRECT. _______________________________________________________________ The important thing is that the canopy clipping will work correctly no matter how many times you re-spawn. Until you re-open the canopy. Thereafter, a closed canopy will never restrict the TrackIR view. _______________________________________________________________ Notes: I understand that this problem exists on other WW2 aircraft, but I have not personally tested any of them. I have tested this pretty hard and it seems repeatable. I do not know if this would be the case for those other aircraft. I believe it is independent of the map. I've seen the same thing on at least one other map (Caucasus). I have attached the mission file that I used for the test. I have attached a track file which shows the problem. test-fw190a8-trackir-bug-20200731.mizserver-20200731-164540.trk 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeCuvier Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 In my perception, this "bug" is a feature. It allows me to check my six despite the glare on the canopy glass. I hope it stays that way, or they fix the glare.

tapi Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I am experiencing "head out of the cockpit" since the time I started to use TrackIR Z-axis for zoom. But not everytime. Most frequently while flying on online servers. 2 Smoke me a kipper I'll be back for breakfast!

Brigg Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Yeah this is a total PITA bug. Can we finally get this rectified for the Anton and every other aircraft in the DCS multiverse it happens to. thanks 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al-Azraq Posted June 29, 2021 Author Share Posted June 29, 2021 It really happens in some planes so I don't know if this is by design or not. I know that limiting the view for VR is weird but then other sims do it right and no one complains. 2 i7 12700KF | MSI Z690 A-PRO | Corsair Vengeance 2x16 gb @ 3200 Mhz | RTX 3070 Ti FE | Acer XB271HU 1440P 144HZ | Virpil T-50 CM throttle | Virpil WarBRD Base + MongoosT-50 CM2 Grip | MFG Crosswind | TrackIR 5 | HP Reverb G2 Bf 109 K-4 | Fw 190 A-8 | Spitfire LF Mk.
