  1. Didn't work for me, either the 64 or the 32 bit versions. I was smart enough to back up my original file before experimenting, too easy to revert back to SteamVR.
  2. This program allows SteamVR games (like BoX/FC) to be ran directly through Oculus’s software. This could improve performance due to one less layer of software. I will be testing it on BoX, myself. Currently not working for BoX 24SEP18 https://uploadvr.com/openvr-for-oculus-vr-lets-you-play-steamvr-games-through-oculus-runtime/amp/
  3. Flying on your leaders 5-7 has always been bad for mutual coverage. You should be more between 3-4 or 8-9. Too many times do I see a wingman fall behind and fail to speak up about being in position. Same goes for Leads flying at full cruise settings the whole time, pushing their wingman into the higher power settings to try and stay in position.
  4. You got this, Maus! Break a leg
  5. Ah, that is an old gem, Barton! My favorite was the molotov cocktail to the marching band.
  6. And Labroisse with the zinger!
  7. The first DLC is rumored to be making it through security to the airport bar. You lose points for leaving stuff in your pocket or getting kicked off the plane for being too intoxicated. Did that preview show the game simulating sleep?
  8. I think we should get in on the ground floor of the latest, upcoming flight simulator. Imagine multi-player in this one!
  9. Good info, immediately reminded me of this gem:
  10. The video has been reposted, see the OP.
  11. Wow, she does look great! Like Joan Jett. I had been misinformed many years ago that she was attacked by a fan, I didn’t even realize she was still alive :/
  12. It's an interesting story, at least. There is a place at the base of the bridge called "Burgers by the Bridge" that is worth a bite, if you find yourself there.
  13. Just two of my favorite things! Here's a video that some friends of mine made for their business, I provided the transportation and destination.
  14. Are you near-sighted? If you aren't, you may not need to wear your glasses as the Rift is focused to infinity. If you're like me, yeah, it's a must for longer playtimes. I ordered this 3D printed lens adapter (two versions, actually, I recommend the one with the open edges) with a pair of Zenni lenses (as indicated in the instructions). I actually got a pair of clear and a pair of yellow tinted lenses to experiment with eye-strain relief, the jury is still out but I'm digging the yellows. I do warn you, though, if you get these, you must be careful resting the rift on your forehead as the insert has somewhat sharp edges. It's 3D printed, so you could file them down, I just wear a do-rag when I use the rift, it helps some with cushioning, as well as look cooler on Twitch than my bald head. The fogging has stopped with the inserts, but I recall it occuring. I keep a fan near me for days I'm on the Rift for extended periods of time, it's hot under that zero ventilation mask. As for checking 6, looking out of the corner of your eye is what you're missing. That and the extra 30-40° of peripheral vision. This is the number one prerequisite for me to buy a replacement VR HMD (second is the resolution). Some people are using swivel chairs to get those extra degrees, I just sit forward while craning around to my right and I may use my off-hand to push myself a little farther, if I need to. I found my right is easier to turn to than my left, your results may vary.

    No worries, thank you for trying!
  17. I wasn't specifically calling you out, Vonrd. I was simply warning this thread to keep it away from politics.

    FC Skins

    I like it, a lot, Vonrd! I noticed you made the X bigger, it looks good. Would you be able to put some yellow in the front cowling? My initial thought is a raised eyebrow over one of the inlets and a flat one over the other, might look interesting to say the least Oh, but invert it so the right eyebrow is raised, please
  19. It is unfortunate and many people will scrutinize the ways in which he gained detailed information on how to do what he did. Please, let us continue to keep our forums free from political musings.

    Sure, Vonrd! Hopefully I can get the install done this week. If you can do a sort of version of this with my pup, I'd certainly appreciate it. Feel free to jazz it up as you see fit. Thank you!
  21. I’d have to watch it again, I believe you were right, though.
  22. Went back to watch the TacView and they don’t broadcast it. The only thing I could tell from it was I never really pushed the aircraft to the critical AoA.
  23. Here's the highlight from my flights last night. After 1.5 hours of streaming, this was the gold: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/294320856 Turns out I shot down an F/A-18C and F-15C in the 104th server, leaving with a single Magic II on board. I decided pressing the issue was a bad idea and kept it for self protection on my egress. Landed back at base but had a blown tire from takeoff, aircraft could be repaired.
  24. “Soon”
  25. Mine, as well. To clarify, it’s the 25% off non-early release modules.
