Rfactor2 The VR thread -settings & tips

My wheel has an Up-Down-L-R switch ( I suppose most do). I mapped the Up position to re-center the view. Very convenient and easy to find "blind". (I set Down to look behind.)
 
The issue isn't with finding the key, that's the easy part :p It's just a hassle trying to get a good cockpit view again because i have to put my physical head down/up/left/right to get the 'spot'.

However, I use the 'O' button on my G29 for Recenter key. And the Up-Down-L-R switch to change my LCD Menu (pit stop changes etc), it's easy and close to the left hand incase of a sudden pitstop that requires a few changes.

Lots of other stuff on the wheel too. DRS, Pit Request, Speed Limiter and Change LCD Menu are set to the 4 blue 'L' & 'R' buttons.
Brake Bias is set to the spinning wheel/knob.
Engine Mix set to the Up & Down arrows on the left side.
Engine Boost set 'X' & 'Triangle'.
Couple of other things like Ignition, Starter & Neutral are set to the 3 keys at the very bottom of the wheel (PS button etc)

All I do is sit in my driving position with hands on the wheel and press the button, when I first drive some cars I may have to adjust the seat movements (up/down/forwards/backwards) & Mirrors but then that's saved until there's an update for the car which sets it back to default (same with mirrors).
 
I’m pretty much running everything within rf2 visual graphic options to off / min in an attempt for fluid vr experience ( I prefer fluid 90fps )

Think performance of rf2 has got worse , roll on optimisation update hopefully be better then

Yeah OK, sorry for the off-the-mark answer. :D But honestly, it is so simple I'm amazed you find it a hassle. I'm with MarcG, I just press my centering button and I'm 95% there. Maybe I lean just a tiny bit or turn my head a degree and press again. I used to sometimes dip down a little to get the height right but now I just press my seat up/down button. It never takes more the 10 or 15 seconds and I'm good for the session.

Mirrors can be a little tougher. But they're not really in 3d so basically they're the same hassle as always. I've always hated the rF2 mirror adjustments.
 
Yeah, some Cars I need to dip down in the seat and I just recentre a few times till correct.
Yes the seat adjustment works quite qell also and seems to stay after the recenter function has been used .
Yep the mirrors suck hard in rF2!
 
Guys, i tried Rf2 for the first time using VR and i have 6 mirrors on the screen. 3 from the car and 3 virtuals on top of the screen. How can i disable these virtual mirrors?
 
I just recently upgraded to a OSW direct drive wheel using the SimuCUBE software and I have to alt+tab out when I switch cars to change the steering rotation to match the car. I've yet to try VR since but does alt+tab work while using VR? I never had to do it when using my G27 with Logitech Profiler so help me if there is something I'm missing, lol. I've just been back to racing on a single monitor since upgrading to the OSW.
 
not that I've found. There's actually a fair number of options that do not work in VR. FPS counter, CPU and Physics Graph, Pretty much anything that writes to the screen.
 
After reading somewhere in this thread about using ASW in the Oculus Tray Tool decided to give it a try. I set it at 45 as recommended and used the Performance HUD to see the ASW section. However, the screen shows " ASW Status - Available - not active" and none of the figures shown change. Am I missing something? TIA
 
Have you tried using Right Ctrl + Keypad 1 , 2 , 3 and 4 to adjust ASW ?
From memory 1 is ASW Off so FPS move around as normal ,
2 is locked at 45 no ASW ,
3 is ASW lock 45
and 4 is normal ASW , so 90 when GPU performance allows and 45 when load is to much .
Something like that , i just use 3 and 4 now though .
 
Does anyone know if theres a way to lower the eye point view on the AMG GT3? It is to high for me...the AMG on the Sinteck mod seen to have it much better. The only workaround i found is to get high on my seat and press the reset button. But it is not ideal because i have to make it everytime.

You can lower and higher the seat position manually (as well as forwards and backwards). I have my seat position bound to the right thumbstick of my CSW2.5, you'll find the keys listed in the controller settings.
