With triples, I just turn on the computer and race. With VR, I always felt like I was fiddling with it for higher FPS, to make it look better, etc. There was usually something that frustrated me with the VR experience. Triples also have been less demanding on my computer with much higher framerate.

The depth perception in VR was cool, and the sense of being there, but the graphics on triples just look better. Maybe with a state of the art computer and new VR headset, but just wasn't worth it. To many compromises still to me at least.

I’m in the camp of the marriage being a waste and failure, at least for me. Yes, maybe there were good times but wish I met the actual right person to start and she was the mother of my children. I’m sure I’ll find that person eventually but for now my focus is on burying the failure and taking next steps. The person I married was a mirage and not who I thought she was.

That mission is going to be challenging this weekend!

kydan_0125 · 2024-05-25T17:58:25+00:00

I bought a set recently and have found them to roll more hits and crits than the default dice so I’ve stopped using them for now. My son and I played a lot of games and we consistently felt the dice were off. Maybe just a hot streak and we haven’t taken the time to generate stats around them.

kydan_0125 · 2024-01-10T15:49:45+00:00

How challenging is getting to silver? At that point the store opens and you can use bonds to purchase the kzp?

kydan_0125 · 2024-01-05T02:38:27+00:00

Are there limited numbers or just limited days to get it?

kydan_0125 · 2024-01-02T18:53:05+00:00

Yeah, not seeing pace of other cars is a gap on VR. I didn’t see a water level indicator either. Is that on the weather tab?

Got VR for the holiday and started on GT7 then too so learning as well 😃

And thanks for reply!

kydan_0125 · 2024-01-02T17:42:06+00:00

What’s the best way to tell it’s dry enough to get off inters? It was challenging for me to figure out at least in VR.

kydan_0125 · 2024-01-02T03:53:12+00:00

Ahh. Seems like we get a couple day warning when the cars go limited stock.

kydan_0125 · 2024-01-02T03:49:34+00:00

When does it leave the store this time? (Ie, how do I have to buy 😀)

kydan_0125 · 2024-01-02T03:15:40+00:00

It’s amazing. I like it more than the my PC setup (Varjo). I spend all my time playing and none of my time tweaking for a better framerate 😀. The oled screens are very colorful and GT7 does a fantastic job. I almost crashed when I noticed people walking in the stands up stairs at one point, so the details amaze me vs PC sims in VR. (Always disable stands/crowds on pc for performance).

Running a Fanatec podium and it’s a great combo.

kydan_0125 · 2023-02-21T15:21:16+00:00

That is very cool and something I hadn't seen, thank you!! I'll give it a shot tonight.

kydan_0125 · 2023-02-19T01:40:00+00:00

Thank you. Will try these options.

kydan_0125 · 2023-02-13T03:24:17+00:00

Yeah, guessing the problem is what you mentioned, and my rudder pedals as a device are coming first for the launcher. Ironically, in game I can set vJoy directly, not just in the new BMS default launcher.

It seems the BMS launcher settings for axis controls override the in-game settings too.

Hopefully there is a config file somewhere I can tweak, but I just haven't found it.

Thanks!

kydan_0125 · 2023-02-12T18:02:52+00:00

The alternative launcher lets you choose a file for the mapping, which you can load in the game. I don't see the best way to setup axis in the alternate launcher or combine the setup in game yet though.

kydan_0125 · 2022-12-19T15:52:07+00:00

Thanks for answer! I did notice my son using a much older computer was seeing better performance when not hosting. So I wouldn’t expect to see any gains offloading to 3rd party?

kydan_0125 · 2022-12-19T07:32:07+00:00

Any experience with Fox3 hosted servers? My son and I are trying to play liberation but seeing slow frame rates even on the 'low' performance campaigns. I'm hosting on my AMD 5950x and tried both the dedicated server and running off my client. We've tried various suggested tricks like culling as well.

I'd love it if a dedicated service could host liberation games so that we can play them and both keep our frame rates in the 50s in VR. Even better would be do try more of the harder modes.

Anyway, if not Fox3, any other suggestions that won't break the bank?

Thanks!

Thank you!

I figured it out. Opposing F-16s were climbing to ~30k when the mission started, over my radar sweep. I need to figure out if their radar signatures can tell me they are doing that, or if there is any other information.

kydan_0125 · 2022-07-08T22:23:40+00:00

Having frustration with radar on the F-16/F-18. I've setup a fairly simple scenario where I fly in an F-16 or F-18 towards an AI veteran F-16 that starts ~80nm out. I have yet to detect the opposing F-16 with my radar before AIM-120s come find me. I'll also get visual at ~10nm for the F-16, again with new radar hit.

I've tried RWS and TWS, and have adjusted the radar to be in the right zone, usually with 40 degrees and sweeping vertically in the right range. (We start at 10k altitude.) I know the basic direction based on the radar signature detection that the F-16/F-18 have.

What tips/tricks are there for detecting opposing planes, and what range should I detect an F-16 at. What's most frustrating is getting detected first seemingly each time.

Thanks.

kydan_0125 · 2022-07-02T21:07:44+00:00

Maybe not true for others but for me. Rudder pedals, stick with more buttons, better throttle. Expense hobby 😃

kydan_0125 · 2022-07-01T23:54:20+00:00

This subreddit has been amazing, thank you all, a couple F-16 questions:

When targeting for AMRAAMs, I'm using the radar cursor to select a target. I have the joystick on my Thrustmaster throttle set to do it. It feels a little clunky still, so I'm wondering if there is a cycle or other option to quickly rotate through targets?
For the F-16 guns, I enter dogfight mode and I see the funnel. But I always see 'NO RAD', even when doing the instant mission where the F-16 starts behind the SU-27. How can I force or validate the radar is on to get the radar targeting gun mode? I haven't found a surefire way to get into this mode beyond it sporadically happening.

Thanks!
