I enabled Oculus Beta and today my new Dash home arrived. It's a bit fiddly at first but this is how I can read notes while flying
- Make sure FS2 auto launches with -othervr mode
- Launch FS2 from within Home - I forget now the new easy way of doing that. Something about Oculus Home remembers Steam games you've played and adds them to Home
- Hit the right hand touch control menu button
- Use the new dash panel to select Desktop
- Open your PDF/browser document using Touch as a mouse
- Point the touch at it, grab it by gripping then move it somewhere you like - it lifts the window off the desktop
- Click the pin icon at the bottom
- Click the right hand touch menu button again to return to the game and the document is overlaid
- To move/resize the overlay at any time, hit the RH menu icon, grab and move with touch. The mini joystick lets you shrink and/or move laterally too. I can now sit it on the Cessna copilot seat with ease.
I think it might be costing me FPS though as I'm sometimes jittery on a 1080ti but then I've had problems for a few days anyway. Also I can't interact with the window without stepping out of FS2, so its not as good as the built in solution IPACS is working on.
