Чтобы все заработало, в конфиг ини надо внести все изменения как указано автором мода.

Но мне не нужна кликабельная кабина, хотя автор мода - фанат этой фишки.)

Вопрос другой. Как у вас идет полет в шлеме? Картинка перемешается плавно? При взгляде вниз вбок на землю не идут статторы? ( дергание картинки, хотя фпс может оставаться высоким)

The performance is smooth besides some stuttering at ground, I don't have problems with visual quality.

I strongly suggets to install Reshade thanks to SMAA or FXAA filters. Reshade works nicely with the mod and it can be used to overcome the lack of external AA injection.

Спасибо, но сглаживание, да, важно, но проблема мода в статторах и даже на вашей сильной компьютерной системе. Можно навернуть в мод еще кучу всяких примочек типа кликабельной кабины и т.д., но если фризит, то мод неиграбелен абсолютно.

I'm really not a fan of motion smoothing/retroprojection but considering that we have to use steamvr which methods is probably the best around and the high load on CPU/low load GPU of the VR mod, I suggest play at 90hz+motion smoothing, I manage a bit well some stuttering at low level flight

1. Game version + mod framework: 4.12.2m and UP3.4 P2 HF23
2. Mod package version: il2vr_up34p2hf23_dev202608170044_icon-anchor.zip
3. Headset model: Meganex 8k MkII
4. Streaming method: direct
5. Result: 3D cockpit OK, good visuals, no complaints.
6. Dashboard readability: Crisp
7. Framerate and latency feel: CPU-limited. With motion smoothing, steady 45 fps with dips into the 30s at low altitudes. No latency issues.
8. 6DOF feel: 1:1, no issues

All in all, works really well on 4k in each eye. Shifting the load over to the GPU somehow will be amazing but I'm sure you're on the case. Well done!

Incredible breakthrough! Thank you for this. Working well on my rig with slight stuttering when there is a lot going on, FPSVR shows that there is indeed heavy CPU load. GPU load is minimal. Stuttering goes away when activity is light. IMO 1946 still has the best AI and most exciting gameplay of all the IL2 series, and has by far the largest amount of aircraft and maps. If you can get this working with the B.A.T. mod (which is the peak of IL2 1946 development) and somehow reduce the CPU load, I will be playing this old sim more than any other. 

System: 9800X3D - RTX5080 - 32GB DDR5 - Quest 3 - Virtual Desktop

I'm getting crash to desktop at 40% when opening IL2 after installing the mod.  I'm running 4.12.2m, ran it flat screen before applying the mod, and have made all the adjustments to the conf.ini.

Добился на своей конфигурации оборудования более менее качественной картинки ( в кабине и вдали). Подлагивания бывают, но допустимо для игры.

Вопрос автору мода.

Какие изменения в конфиг ини надо сделать, чтобы убрать "кликабельную кабину" ? Мое оборудование позволят все кнопки назначить на HOTAS. 

Очень допускаю, что такой я буду не один🙂 Знаю многих фанатов старого ил-2, что принципиально летали без буквенных подсказок, карты с отметкой самолета, а только смотрели на приборы и местность за бортом.

Оставить хотелось бы только показания слева (скорость, перегрузка и тд), карта вызывается нормально, с ней разберусь.

Очень жду исправления показаний справа ( работа двигателя и тд, вместо русских букв идет сбой шрифта и вместо букв знак ?, об этой проблеме автор знает и писал, что пробует исправить).

С большим уважение за великолёпную работу! 

Ваш друг Papa_JA2

 

PS

Главная часть вопроса снята!!!

Кликабельная кабина отключается, если назначена кнопка  VRHUD_TOGGLE: 

Я ошибочно полагал, что отключается все, но оказывается автор предусмотрел "мое пожелание", и карта, и показания работы справа - НЕ отключаются!  Осталось дождаться нормальных русских букв)))

Good stuff metal, the new update has fixed the centering issues on the Quest 2 as well; now the HUD/map is all lined up and I don't need to do the work around. VRNeckSafer works properly too

Привет! XRNS у меня в 1946 отказался доворот делать. Поставил VRNS программа доворот делает, хотел поставить доворот право-влево по 60 градусов, но не могу отстроить ее нормально, вылетаю из кабины за самолет))) Что-то можете подсказать или поделиться вашими настройками.

Hi! In 1946, my XRNS refused to do the additional turn. I installed VRNS the program does a do-turn, I wanted to do a do-turn right-left at 60 degrees, but I can’t rebuild it normally, I’m flying out of the cockpit behind the plane)) Something you can suggest or share your settings.

I didn't notice this until now since I hadn't used NeckSafer for a while, I'm having the same issue as you; my left and right turns to look behind me mess up the centering and don't return to the original position afterwards

Update to my issue.  I was trying to use the UP version of the mod, so I started over with the SAS ModAct version, and everything worked fine with that version.  I then went back and made a new install to try the UP version again, and realized that I forgot to apply the UP patch.  Once I did that, and installed the applicable VR Mod, now both installs will start.  The issue I'm having right now with the UP version is when I get into the cockpit, say in an Me-109 G2, the screen is black.  I can exit back to the menu via the ESC key, or when the aircraft is inevitably destroyed, but not playable yet.

Edit:  I've discovered that I can play tracks on the UP version, but if I try to fly a mission, I get a black screen when the cockpit should load as described above.

If anyone has any ideas on why only the UP version is having this issue, I'd be grateful, otherwise I'll keep trouble shooting.

Fantastic update, the gaze control is great and you can interact very nicely with HUD! 

I'll switch to BAT from UP asap and I'll test it.

Great to see a BAT port!

I'll give it some proper testing later since it's 5 in the morning lol. I was just curious to see if there'd been any updates, lo and behold...

I did notice some flickering in the very brief flight time I had, it was very regular intervals, every second or so, I think mostly with the landscape/horizon. I'll mess around with graphics settings and see what the deal is. The only other performance issues I ran into is just the usual BAT chugging when lots of stuff is on screen, nothing new

[GOA_AveFenix=VR=]

Hello everyone, I would greatly appreciate it if someone could make a step-by-step video showing everything needed to get the mod working. I’ve tried everything but haven't succeeded; the simulator runs inside SteamVR Home rather than as the actual application (meaning I see the simulator from the VR room as if it were just a screen). Could someone please help me? I’m using an HP Reverb G2 headset. Best regards to all.

[JollyJack]

IL2 1946 i gave up on to get it going properly. RoF works fine and is still worthwhile.

[Sparviero]

I tried the BAT version, works greatly. However I suggest I clean install.

The only problem I got is the centering of the menu: even if my headset is well centered in steamVR, the menu is far above me.

[boilingmetal]

Have you tried using the center button at the bottom of the main menu? If centering still doesn't bring the menu back to directly in front of you, then there are still some strange coordinate misalignments at play here.

Hi,

Congratulations on the mod, very much awaited by some many. Works great with BAT, I hope you are able to move some of the load onto the GPU.

I also had the issue with the menu up above me, I seemed to have fixed it by writing the vr_menu_y=0 option in conf.ini.

Good luck for the further patches 🫡
