Can you please try this version: https://www.hitziger-solutions.de/downl ... Helper.zip
I gave the version linked above a quick test, and what I tested (just running a server, I did not try any scheduling) seemed to work nicely – thank you!

Re: New Meta Quest 3 VR Headset

A desktop RTX2080 Ti is significantly more powerful than my laptop RTX2070 Max-Q, and I'm still quite happy with what I'm getting. You may not be able to crank everything to the highest possible resolution and frame rate, but you should still be able to get a great immersive experience. If there's a...

Re: PCVR is a pain to setup - tried Quest 3 and Pico 4

A cable is really the way to get the most reliable, highest-quality connection. With a cable and the Quest 3, my experience is actually quite straightforward - only the Oculus software is required on the PC, and the connection between PC and Quest gives great quality and stability. And, of course, i...

Re: New Meta Quest 3 VR Headset

I have a Quest 3, still driving it from my laptop with an RTX2070 Max-Q, so nowhere near its full capabilities (72Hz refresh rate which is honestly fine, not quite full rendered resolution but it still looks great). I was using the original Oculus Link cable that I bought with my Oculus Quest (the o...

Re: Virtual serial port for NMEA Windows11on ARM

The easiest thing might be a solution with a microcontroller that has USB support, such as the Raspberry Pi Pico, programmed to present itself as multiple serial ports over USB and forwarding data between them. That way Windows thinks there are real serial ports involved. A Raspberry Pi Pico is also...

Re: New Meta Quest 3 VR Headset

I've preordered a Quest 3 [...]. As soon as I receive it I will try it and will report the outcome. I've received my Quest 3, had a couple of short flights in Condor 2 in VR - and it works, flawlessly, with Quest Link, and looks awesome. I'm currently using glasses inside it (and thus have reduced ...

Re: New Meta Quest 3 VR Headset

Based on the fact that both the Oculus Quest and the Quest 2 both support Oculus/Meta PC VR through 'Quest Link', I am very strongly presuming that the Quest 3 will continue to support PC VR in the same way. In fact, I've preordered a Quest 3 to replace my aging Oculus Quest. As soon as I receive it...

Re: Naviter SeeYou Navigator

Here it is. It uses the BLE support included with the ESP32 board support for the the Arduino IDE, so you need to add support for ESP32 dev boards, but should not need any libraries beyond that. Note that this is for ESP32 chips that support Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). I offer no guarantees, no supp...

Re: Looking For a New Laptop to Support Condor 2 And VR

https://www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Graphics-Cards-Benchmark-List.844.0.html has a comparison of different laptop GPUs. For reference: I bought my current setup – an Acer Predator Triton 500 laptop with an NVidia RTX 2070 Max-Q GPU, and an Oculus Quest (1) VR headset – in early 2020; and it runs Co...

Re: Meta Quest Pro

I've not used the Quest Pro specifically, but generally, I very much enjoy Condor in VR, including because it allows me to look around like in a real glider. I'm using the original Oculus Quest, and I have never had any issues with latency; as long as you have a powerful enough PC that can provide e...

Re: Naviter SeeYou Navigator

cbrunschen has a great post for a "free" bluetooth adapter. I didn't claim anything to be 'free'; I was simply discussing bit of detail about what protocol the Naviter dongle seems to be using, and showing how, if you want to build one of your own rather than buy one from Naviter, there is a way to...

Re: Naviter SeeYou Navigator

There are two different kinds of Bluetooth involved. XCSoar uses what these days is known as "Bluetooth Classic" with the standard "Serial Port Profile". SeeYou Mobile uses "Bluetooth Low Energy" (aka "BLE") which does not have a standardized serial port equivalent (though it uses something that has...
