VR NeckSafer problems in DCS

Featured Replies

I was having terrible problems with my NeckSafer in DCS. I use smooth motion but lately what it does is throw me completely outside the cockpit when I turn my head (often putting me out beyond the wingtips). I finally asked Grok and used the following steps which has helped a lot so far.

### Summary of Steps to Fix DCS VR Cockpit Clipping for VR NeckSafer

1. **Enable Saving**: In Options > Misc, ensure "User Snap-View Saving" is checked (it was already for you).

2. **Enter 2D Mode**: Disable VR in launcher; launch DCS in 2D.

3. **Setup Cockpit**: Select aircraft, start mission, spawn on ground, enter cockpit (RCtrl + C).

4. **Adjust Head Forward**: Hold RCtrl + RShift + Num * (your binding for forward); press 3–5 times (or more) to shift head forward for VR buffer.

5. **Save Default**: Press RAlt + Num 0 to save as default view (creates/updates snapviews.lua).

6. **Test in VR**: Relaunch in VR, enter mission, look behind. Recenter if needed (RCtrl + Num 0 in-flight).

7. **Per Aircraft**: Repeat steps 2–6 for each plane; all save to the same snapviews.lua file (separate sections).

 

I only did it for the Mig-21 but went to diff airplanes and so far it is holding for each and I haven't needed to do it separately for each aircraft. 

I center in the Pimax software before every DCS session after starting Necksafer and that usually fixes this problem for me.  You can do that either with a controller or if you have controllerless mode enabled in Pimax Play, by holding down the up volume button on the headset and then centering when the menu comes up.

Yeah I do that to but it was still causing problems until I did the above.
