Tank Crew in VR

[Intrud3r]

Hi all 

Tank Crew in VR is incredibly immersive! Sitting in this steel coffin with all that bullets flying around, great!

 

But I have a hard time with aiming.

 

is the VR zoom the only possibility to zoom in on the gun sight? And the “crosshairs” is often mixing up with the background and seems to be invisible in most cases.

 

have anyone similar problems?!

Yes, zoom with VR is not at all satisfactory.

[JonRedcorn]

Don't expect a fix.

I hope they show some love for this addon! 

Its early access, I know , but just a few more tanks but no fine tuning the mechanics would be sad! 

 

 

Ou! Is it possible to move the gun with a Axis of the flight stick?

Salutations,

 

Yes, I control my tank turret via joystick with the use of a program called JoyToKey.

Anyone else having issues with other vehicles sometimes not rendering, then re-appearing?

Yes. 

 

Also, Icons.

 

I had a PZIII and 6 rocket launching sdkfz appear 200meters  in front of me out of the blue !

 

This was in VR in the excellent SP missions, but with out the TC dlc.

? ok ... but this will not give you a real axis function ?! Is it precise enough for aiming? The buttons moves the sight too fast I think

so far, I feel the icon thing is only for the PzIII and the T-34. I didn't experience this in the Tiger or KV. 

Actually, the VR "camera" is independent of the turret "camera" and the IL2 engine tries to not render things not visible (even though it is because you're looking in that direction with the VR HMD...)

Using tank with vr is really nice, like flying. Main problem with vr, like in OP, turret crosshair wont work with vr. Thin black line is 1px wide and disappears/blinks, so it makes hard to aim.

And own tab to keybinds as "tank controls" would be nice.

It works fine for aiming one can set how precise or fast the movement is.

The zoom is simply insufficient and falsely applied, there must be a much stronger VR zoom. I posted on this in the update thread.

 

If you guys do not press them by bringing it to their attention via posting in such threads, nothing will change. Let's just all get this right together and have it fixed, so those of us who have already bought TC can enjoy it properly.

 

And those who have not yet can safely buy it.

 

Make us and yourselves heard.. just post in the update thread asking for this nicely and politely. ?

I hope so! It has such a big potential! There’s nothing similar around, so please make it right

Yes, this game is good, just need some tweaking to be great.  Joystick and Xbox controller would be good also for VR use rather than mouse and keyboard

I think Oculus Touch would do the trick if properly integrated.
