t-stoff Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Where did you ask for guidance? I didn't see it. Ahh it was couple of pages/days ago. I was in the middle of a dilema between this and the Rift S, and I solved by making a decision, now I've got to own it. If it works, fine, if it doesn't it will force me to upgrade my computer :lol: About the USB power, I asked because I was making the order and thought about buying all at once, but let's see it first, act later.

JasonJ Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) I'm getting a problem today. WMR portal keeps saying 'put on your headset' even though it is on. I can get Steam VR to work and it works with DCS but I don't get full tracking. My room should be bright enough (it was fine before) and the only thing that has changed is windows 10 has updated. I find that if I let the computer sleep and then come back to it the next day, I have far more success if I shut WMR down completely and restart it each time I want to do a DCS session. Same for Steam VR. So my routine is to shut everything down and close the apps completely and then start WMR first outside of Steam, do the head tracking exercise each time at the beginning of the session, then go into Steam and start Steam VR and then run DCS. Even though I have WMR for steam loaded, if I open WMR straight from windows first, it seems to run well. I do this sequence of steps each time and it seems to work consistently. YMMV. I had the same problem as Dave317; It kept saying "put on your headset"....even after I put it on.... I had to re calibrate the headset using the "Setup Room Boundary" option in the WMR window - from the top left "three bar" menu icon. (Do this before starting SteamVR) I used the seated option (not set up room boundary) and hold the headset at chest level pointing forward and clicked "Click Here" when displayed on the screen. I don't have to do this every time though, just very rarely when it loses tracking and it says "Put on your headset" when you already have it on.

cercata Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 In the F-18 I see the HUD ultra sharp, miles ahead compared to my CV1, but in the A-10C the HUD is not very sharp, almost the same than with CV1 ... is this an A-10C thing, very limited resolution on the HUD ? Or is something in the setting ? Link to post Share on other sites

Vlerkies Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) Hi folks, a question on recording with OBS in the reverb. Had my reverb for some time now, but been absent for a long while. Can anyone point me to a post/thread/tut on recording video. I see some videos out there at full res others with more restricted res. I might have asked before cant remember but just want to know if there is something out there that explains it all.

I might have asked before cant remember but just want to know if there is something out there that explains it all. Thx There are many OBS DCS videos out there. Most recent one that simplifies the process is this one With regards to resolution. It comes down to what you set as your output resolution. The higher the res, the bigger the file and if your CPU can’t handle the load, it will slow down during the process. 1920x1080 and 2560x1440 are common. Above that, 3840x2160, you’re gonna need a strong CPU and fast SSD. Also, the video producer used the simple option during setup. In Advanced, you can set your bit rate which has a big impact on file size and CPU utilization. Higher resolution output requires higher bit rates to display smoothly on YouTube or whatever video upload platform you use. I record regularly in VR at 1440p. Perhaps I could make a video on how I record in DCS.... :joystick: :book: Edited April 15, 2020 by Chaz YouTube | Twitch | My Gaming Rig EVGA 2080Ti XC Ultra 11GB | i9 9900KS | ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-E Gaming | 64GB DDR4 3200 MHz | Corsair H150i Cooler | SSDs: 2 x NVMe M.2 970 EVO PLUS 1TB, Crucial 1TB, Crucial 512GB, Samsung 850 EVO 500GB | Corsair 1000W | Bose Companion 3 | Razer Viper | HP Reverb G2 |Track IR 5 + Pro Clip | TM Warthog, CH Pro Pedals, Honeycomb Alpha + Bravo | TM T500 RS w/ Leather 28 GT and custom F1 wheels | Viotek 34” 1440p monitor | Shure SM7B + GoXLR Link to post Share on other sites

Hammer1-1 Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Another question - the head tracking seems to be a bit sporadic. I did a couple of dogfights in the hornet, and the headset would recenter itself out of nowhere outside of the cockpit and then back again. It does this quite frequently. Is there a way to keep this from happening, or is this a thing with this headset?
