FSX Steam Edition VR Compatibility
Flightsimmers who are users of Virtual Reality equipment such as the HTC Vive or Oculus Rift will most likely already be aware of the excellent FlyInside FSX' add-on, which makes FSX Steam Edition VR-compatible. Click the logo below to go to the FlyInside website:
All of the Virtavia Steam Edition models have now been tested using FlyInside and a HTC Vive headset. It was found that, whilst most worked to some degree, many had slight issues with the size of the virtual cockpit in VR, and one is not working at all. So to save users potential disappointment and to save us having to deal with numerous e-mail queries about compatibility, we're using the table below to depict the situation visually. It's our intention to work through the more popular models which have problems and address these as soon as possible. The table will be updated when improvements are made and the updated VC's will of course be freely available to owners of the models.
