  1. Hi Norrin.  I'm about to try your VR setup for Strike Fighters 2 and I have some questions, if you don't mind.  Do I have to install all three programs, or for the first two do I just copy the files into the SF2 directory?  I also have a HP Reverb G2 headset.  Do I have to use Open Track, or can I skip using that with my headset?  Thanks in advance for your help.  I would really love to try out SF2 in VR.  Thanks for  your efforts.  They are greatly appreciated.

    Sincerely

    Edward

      Hi Edward, 

      Firstly, I just realised that I still had the original version of the file (v1.0.0) linked via the download file tab in the Combat Ace download section, this has now been corrected so please make sure you get the v1.0.2 version as this hopefully has a slightly better explanation and a few additional details regarding troubleshooting.

      As you said, for the first 2 steps there's no need to install these programs, you just need to copy the relevant files from the downloads into your strike fighters 2 directory, that is the one that contains the SF2.exe files.

      Installing Opentrack with your headset is optional; however, headtracking won't work in VR, that is you'll still need to use the  mouse to look around the cockpit etc. So I highly recommend you install it, that way when you turn your headset your view will change in game. The easiest way to do this is to use the SteamVR settings as shown in image D of the instructions. If you do this, don't forget to set up a dead zone in the mapping options of openTrack.  There's a really nice explanation describing how to set-up OpenTrack here: https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/34403-a-complete-guide-to-set-up-head-tracking-opentrack/

      I hope this helps,

      Best wishes,

      Simon (norrin)

      Hi Norrin

      Thanks so much for the help.  Your instructions worked perfectly.  I got the 3D cockpit and everything.  Looks great.  Open Track is working well.  Only on last thing.  When I move my head and look around I can still see the edges of the game screen.  I have tried to adjust the screen size and curvature and it works but at the very extreme I can still see the edges of the screen.  I'm used to playing Il-2 1946 in true VR without seeing the screen edges.  Is there any way to fix that.

      Thanks again for setting all this stuff up.  It works perfectly except for the screen edges.

      Sincerely

      Edward

    Here is the Korean Air War Mod Terrain and Campaign Update. My thanks go to TK for such a great sim, FNG2k for his groundbreaking work in this area, and especially Charles, Capun and Gramps (the A-Team) for all their help and support. This is a redone Korea Terrain and Campaign V2.0. I used all new tiles plus got rid of all those "sea mountains"and fixed the water and runways to give them a more 1950's look. Special thanks to Polak for his water mod, which I have adapted for this terrain. I stongly recommend you download and use Polak's sky mod with this terrain as well. Installation 1. Delete your old Korea Folder in the Terrain Folder and replace it with this new one. 2. Delete the old Korean War Folder in the Campaign Folder and replace it with this one. 3. Fly.

    Here are some replacement tiles for the stock First Eagles Terrain. They are modified Flight Simulator 2004 tiles. They are not perfect, and there are still a few misplaced trees. These tiles change nothing else about the stock Verdun terrain except the look. All roads, villages, rivers and trenches are intact. To install simply copy all the files into your wwiVerdun folder inside the terrain folder. To delete simply delete all the files from the folder. My sincere thanks to the A-Team for all their advice and support, and to TK for creating such an excellent flight sim and for the terrain design tools. Edward

  24. Raven This stuff in the screens of Burma has been available to you for about a year These are the Vietnam tiles I did for Razbam copied into the Burma Map available at Avsim. Sorry you didn't know All you need to do to experience it is: 1. Go to Razbam and purchase the Vietnam Terrain 2. Go to Avsim and download the WW2 Burma Terrain 3. Copy the Vietnam tiles into the Burma Terrain folder For additional fun, you can go to Razbam and purchase my Korean War terrain and go to avsim and download the WWII China terrain. Copy the korea tiles into the China folder and you'll get this: You will need a few additional tiles I did for the WWII China Terrain which I could send to anyone. CA_Stary Those new trees look fantastic And I must say your WWII effects are fantastic as well. They really made me start flying WWII planes almost exclusively. Thanks so much for doing them. They really make the sim so much better I think YAP2 is coming out soon as well with some great looking forest trees as well. ES Edward
  25. Thanks Raven I'll try that. But the trees seem a bit out of scale. I prefer Deuces tree mod, which looks like this: And how's this for Burma ES Edward
