Fine tune the view orientation

Postby BlueThing » Thu Dec 15, 2016 6:39 pm

Hello,

currently in order to reset the view orientation inside the rift, we use a bind button. When pressed, the view snap to the same direction our HMD is pointing.
(If I'm not mistaken, it is only possible to reset the horizontal orientation (turn right/left), since the vertical orientation (look up/down) is defined by the sensors)

In order to perfectly align the view inside the rift with the exact same direction of the (physical) home cockpit, a fine tuning method is required.

I would like to have the option to reset the view by gently and slowly turning it right or left with the keyboard.

cheers,

We have one better under development :) We're working on a way so that you can setup, fine-tune, and save a set orientation between your Rift sensor (or Vive lighthouses) and the aircraft. That means tune your position once, and never have to "tap" the headset again!

that sounds great, and I'm really curious to see how that works.

I still believe it will be necessary to reset the view orientation every once in a while:
At list in my case, while the yoke and throttle are fixed to the desk, the Oculus sensor on the other hand is just standing on it and sometimes accidentally pushed slightly.

Hi Dan, Toni

any update about this one?
Is it already in action with the last release (1.8) and if so, how do you set it exactly? only via config file? (I couldn't find anything in the GUI).

cheers
