Re: Error initialising direct3d....?

I don't think Oculus is working correctly, soon as I plug the headset into the pc there is massive lag on the desktop mouse and the keyboard. Not a good sign, will uninstall and try again. But I ended up getting my G2 working with revive via steam vr so all ok.

Was good to get back in the sky again.

Re: Use of Autopilot in Competitions - is there a performance benefit gained? (Again ;-)

Personally I don't use auto pilot at all. I understand the possible need for it and think it would be very easy for the Devs to limit the total use in a flight to 5 mins for eg. Or if a task setter wishes to completely disable it then why not. Apart from the fact your instantly turning a SIM into an...

The future... is it ever going to arrive?

Dear Dev's I am yet to experience a better complete gliding sim in VR than Condor2. Maybe here lays the problem? Not one of the competition are cutting the mustard in gliding terms or VR, yet. We still have no support for newer VR units (G2 for eg) even just this would be a step forward. I have seen...

Re: HP Reverb G2 - VR Setup Guide for Condor 2

Had another go at setting up the G2, followed the instructions. Sim starts to load, gets to "almost there" in the red line bottom of monitor picture. Steam VR says its playing condor. BUT the bottom red line sticks on almost there. In the headset it is black apart from you can see the start timer an...

Re: HP Reverb G2 - VR Setup Guide for Condor 2

Yep, I read it wrong, well it was 1.30am and I'd had a few Jim Beams by then. Turns out it doesn't work without Oculus software. Reinstalled it along with the other two progs mentioned and Condor loaded but got stuck on "nearly done". I could see the view and look around from within the cockpit, but...

Re: HP Reverb G2 - VR Setup Guide for Condor 2

Just come across this, might be reading wrong but it looks like he's just used this revive to patch Condor without the need for the Oculus software. To late to try tonight but will give this a go in the morning.

Re: HP Reverb G2 - VR Setup Guide for Condor 2

So I installed my new Reverb G2 tonight. After a few tweaks n tunes I get IRacing looking and running fantastic. Was well worth the upgrade from the Oculus 2, very happy indeed. But then I open Condor! ☹️ Oh dear.... Whilst it was good to find this work around if all I ran in VR was Condor, I would ...

Re: Problem on Tchin Tchin Server Connection, can´t fly

300 is quite a high ping, have you tried a cable connection instead of wireless? This may improve your ping.

Re: Join window! ..Why....??

Cheers, by chance this link https://condor.hitziger.net/serverlist/ got me flying with others straight away. I can see the stop joins are all different, I must just be out of sync when most people are flying. First time completing a live race, there were about 8-10 starters, most enjoyable. https://...

Re: MC setting?

Just tried this Mc tool for the first time on a download of a flight with 10 ghosts. I am still like the Sheriff from Blazzing Saddles when he's a child going west being part of a waggon trail, "Well, we were bringing up the rear". Took a couple of goes, bombed out in the little village twice just b...

Re: MC setting?

If we expect 2 m/s climb, we set the MC to 2.0 and the computer will output the optimal speed to fly.

Thanks for helping here folks, sorry if I am being a bit thick, but I just cant find where the output for best speed is indicated. This is in the JS3-18, is it on the dash somewhere or PDA?

Re: MC setting?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_to_fly Ahh, that's great thanks. So its based on the expected climb of the thermals which can be edited on the fly to suit. "We can switch from vario to “speed command” with the default RIGHT CTRL key." Sorry if I am missing something obvious and repeating questi...
