  • VR controller pointer option

    Quote from PjotR22

    In AFS2: settings>controls>view>move or AFS4: controls>general>view>move you can assign buttons to move your body around in the VR cockpit.
    Works great for me....

    Thanks for the tip. I tried but it moves slowly and only a small amount in total near your seat area. Is better than nothing of course, bu not really solving the problem.

    Again I think that laser pointer option should be available to solve this but I understand won't be available in a near future. Again many thanks for your help!

  • VR controller pointer option

    Thanks for the tip Jan, however is not the best option for me, as moving the chair leaves me far from the controllers. Maybe the mouse option seems more feasible to me.

    However, if it is not a real hassle and after solving other major issues first, I think that you could implement the laser like pointer option and make it optional in control settings for those people that prefer this way of interaction like me.

    Again many thanks for your work and your quick replies, very much appreciated.

  • VR controller pointer option

    Dear IPACS,

    I am using HP reverb G2 headset with motion controllers via steamVR. So far so good but I noticed that if I can't physically reach a button in the cockpit with the motion controller there is no way to press or flip it.

    Is it expected and option for reaching buttons inside the cockpit when is not physically feasible as for example when you are playing in a small room or for pressing mcdu buttons when you have a physical table and the mcdu seen in VR fits under that table in real life? Some kind of visible laser pointer to press non reachable switches as in other games would be definitely appreciated.

    Regards

  • NAVDATA - Error reports

    Dear IPACS team,

    FOR LEBL (Barcelona Airport) I have found nav data is not up to date because recently main runways (07/25) changed magnetic heading to (6/24). Can you revise it?

    A few additional things I expect to be easy fixable:

    • AI traffic on rwy 20. It is rarely used. Usually landing/departures are on rwy 6/24 and only landings in night operation is over rwy 02 due to noise reduction procedures from 23PM LT to 7AM LT
    • Heliport markings on the heli spots not shown (maybe my fault only?)
    • ILS lighting for CAT III not displaying. I mean the "christmas tree" pattern that should be visible on rwy 06L/24R at least.
    • RWY borders (white lines) on 02/20.

    Finally, over the coast approaching 24L here is a kind of nuclear plant or so that doesn't exist in real life and sound strange as well as a wind turbine.

    For the rest of Barcelona airport and the city the work performed is quite good, so I want to extend my congratulations to the team for the effort. :thumbup:
