  • Special Server Maintenance

    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

"Infuse VR" coming soon to Steam

For me it's just a curiosity, it obscures the view and spoils the immersion. It's better to practice muscle memory what I've been doing for years in VR. :sentimental:
 
I'm with YoYo. Not really of interest for me. Seems very fiddly to set up, and has to be set up again if you move anything. Groping for the controls can be annoying sometimes, but it would still beat having images of my PC peripherals superimposed on the aircraft controls. I can't figure out who the intended audience for this is - especially outside of flight simming, where people don't use multiple specialized controllers.

The keyboard option certainly looks quite interesting, although I have Quest Pro and there is a gap between the glasses and the cheek. Look down and you can see everything. This program is certainly an interesting solution, but as you can also see in the video, adding these 3D models also obscures part of the cockpit.
 
I think that instead of projecting an image of the whole controller or keyboard, maybe if it just had an un-intrusive representation of one or a few of the buttons, enough for you to locate and get your hand on it without it interfering too much with the display, that might be helpful. The video says you can make your own 3d models, so this should be possible, hopefully without a graduate degree in 3d modeling. Also if you can turn it on and off, maybe with a voice command, so that it only shows when you need to find something, also good. Still not for me, and I have no plans to own any headset that is compatible with it anyway, but it will be fun to watch how this tech develops.
