Extreme Turbulence only in VR

[FlightMotion]

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Turbulence in VR is too extreme compared to non-VR.

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

Always

REPRODUCTION STEPS

1. Make sure turbulence is set to ‘realistic’

2. Take a flight in VR and switch between 2D and VR to compare. There shouldn’t be any difference, but in VR the turbulence is far too aggressive.

Tested with C172.

Aircraft turbulence behavior VR vs. non-VR

ISSUE DESCRIPTION I’m using a Motion Rig, and when VR is enabled, the rig moves violently during turbulence. When VR is disabled, the rig moves as it should during turbulence. Something’s wrong here… The aircraft behaves differently during turbulence in VR than in non-VR, or there is something wrong with the SIMConnect output in VR. This was not an issue in SU3! Note: This is unrelated to previous bug reports about turbulence in VR!! FREQUENCY OF ISSUE Always REPRODUCTION STEPS Please list …

Turbulence and VR

Thank you using the Bug section, using templates provided will greatly help the team reproducing the issue and ease the process of fixing it. Are you using Developer Mode or made changes in it? No Brief description of the issue: Even with clear weather, and no wind layers, flying over mountains causes severe turbulence. In VR this can be nauseating. A slider or option should be provided for VR users to disable any type of turbulence buffeting to minimise VR vertigo. Provide Scree…

Please consider adding a Turbulence Slider

Overall, I like the behavior of wind effects on planes, but it seems overdone. It is very rare to have smooth air and I know that depends on the actual wind data it is responding to. What I’d really like to have and a simple slider to affect the intensity of the turbulence effects. Right now it’s pretty choppy all the time, then can get quite turbulent and it just seems more intense more often than real world flying. I’m using mostly the TBM930. This seems somewhat simple to do on the outs…

This section is dedicated to regressions found in the Sim Beta related to VR. While we understand there may old bugs that still exist from previous versions, there is no need to re-report them as they are already logged internally. Anything that isn’t a specific regression will be closed. Thank you for understanding.
