Hi I want to use oculus thumbstick as joystick in DCS (Digital Combat Sim), can I use auto_oculus_touch for that? Do I need vjoy? What would be the steps for that, sorry if this is the wrong place.

Thanks a lot!

Not sure if you still need help with this, but this is definitely possible.

You just need to install the vJoy, as indicated on the readme:

If you want vJoy support, you must have it installed. It is available from http://vjoystick.sourceforge.net/site/index.php/download-a-install

Once you install it, just run vJoy and run the script named oculus_touch_vjoy.ahk (also assuming you have AutoHotKey installed.

Just note that you should find the AHK executable and set it to always run as administrator, as most times on Windows 10 it won't allow the script to run without it. You could just right click and run the script manually, but I find it easier to set AHK to admin.

Then DCS should see the vJoy device and you can map the joystick as you please.
