He 111 head bump sound issue

[HagarTheHorrible]

I think the headrest boundary is too close to the head. I get constant bump noises when looking left, 70-80 deg, sometimes right, but if I lean forward slightly then the issue is resolved.

 

It would be super interesting to know how the boundaries are set and defined.

The sound needs to be removed completely

It actually breaks the immersion currently in all the air frames I've tried

Jason has said they worked the boundaries out as far as they could. I get the same bump noises too. It would be nice if they had a setting to just turn the bump noise off but keep the limitations where they are (because they can't go out anymore).

the limitations are actually more restrictive than track ir and IRL. The collider seems to be based on a point on the front of the HMD. ... ie about 4-6 inches further out than your virtual forehead. Its actually a disadvantage right now.  and yeah quite frankly the perception of some unnatural advantage by walking outside your aircraft is... well... overblown. Try flying a fighter while leaning out far enough to actually see anything useful.. its a self defeating action.

I agree that the perceived advantage from being able to pop your head outside the canopy is a little (actually a lot) over egged. For me it's more the immersion breaker of having my view half in, half out of the canopy as I rapidly look around, left to right and back again.
