Consider making an ingame UI for VR users #154

Closed fdsprod closed 7 years ago

fdsprod commented 7 years ago

Have you considered this? Are there issues that cause you to not be able to do this? Would be very helpful for FC3 aircraft in VR

I use the patented "Look through the nose hole" method lol

fdsprod commented 7 years ago

Sure, i got a big nose... or something, I cant see through it much. But its possible to make your own UI in DCS, I proved it with Twitch2DCS just today. It just isnt documented, at all, so its a pain. I was lucky enough to be able to copy a lot of what Multiplayer Chat does.

Ah just saw your post on reddit 👍

I was thinking exactly that!

Shouldn't be too hard to do now i've seen how you went about doing it. Great job BTW.

I was going to do DX overlay injection but that is overkill if the same can be achieved with LUA

fdsprod commented 7 years ago

Cool deal, DX overlay injection wouldnt work unfortunately for VR, but glad you will be able to do something ;) Looking forward to it!

ciribob commented 7 years ago

ah thats interesting, didn't know that!

Well glad you had the lua idea then as the only reason I was looking at DX injection was for VR!

Time is a little short but i'll see what I can do. At the very least I can make a bodge of your chat interface that has the active radios. Thanks again for the pointer! 👍

If i get time to ill try and contribute, i literally dont use SR as much as I want to because of VR :(

fdsprod commented 7 years ago

ciribob commented 7 years ago
