Flak halftruck VR graphics issue

[SCG_SchleiferGER]

I encountered a grahpics issue when playing the flak halftrack as a gunner.

 

Here is how to reproduce it:

 

1. Look for a vehicle to point your gun at, (I suggest one of the AA missions is a good point to start).

2. Point gun at said vehicle and focus it whith your eyes

3. Rotate the gun horizontally, but stay on the vehicle with your eyes by turning your head in the opposite direction

4. afer 30 to 45 degrees of travel the vehicle vanishes

5. rotate the gun back to the starting position, the vehicle should show up again

 

I think this is a misplaced performance optimisation to not render vehicles which cannot be seen by a normal tank gunner bexed in by armor.

The issue is not present with any of the other availabe crew positions on the flak halftrack and only happens in VR.

This is one of those issues that stem from the way certain controls influence the "camera" but disregard the fact that the camera in VR is attached to the player's head. You can induce the same in cockpit if you bind the pilot head, I believe, controls to the mouse and move your mouse around. It's been a thing in VR for a while now.

 

Several such issues are noted in this thread, amongst others:
