Strange Rectangle when using Oculus Rift

Post by mangionesaverio »

Hi everyone, recently I tried to use Prepar3D V4.3 with the VR and to my amazement now there's a white rectangle that I can not remove from the view. The strangest thing is that it is located right at the most crucial point of the cockpit, thus preventing me from having an optimal view. Can anyone tell me what I have to do to remove that funny rectangle? Thank you very much for any feedback you may provide me with.

Best

Hi Saverio,

Are you seeing this in all vehicles? Is this appearing as a panel that you can right click and close?

It's a known issue with some PMDG aircraft.
See the PMDG support forum. https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/5382 ... native-vr/

Hi Rob, this is happening with both MDG 747 qotsii and 737 NGX. When you first implemented the tab Virtual Reality with yopur last update the sim was working fine.


hope to read you back

Hi Saverio,

I recommend contacting those developers. We have made continued updates to VR including the ability to use 2D panels while VR is active. There may need to be updates made to these aircraft to support this feature.
