A Idea for VR users with 2 headsets


Recommended Posts

First today I'm flying all day in multiplayer for the first time, so look out for Fireball XL5 my game tag name.... I had a situation last night could ASOBO make it so that you can have a passenger in VR.... We fly with an empty passenger seat, my younger brother asked if he could use my second VR set to sit in the passenger seat while I fly a plane... I thought what a great idea, so we tried and failed.... It would be so cool to have your kid or partner sitting in the passenger seat and certainly would add value to the sim.....

 

what do you all think about that, or maybe some of you have found a way to do it, please share....

There is an app already called shared cockpit from Flightsim.to I think. Haven't used it but you can give it a go.

You need a reasonably powerful pc (& graphics card) to use just one VR headset. Imagine the power you need for two.

One major thing though is that both headsets would need to work independently to do what you are asking. Both showing completely different views. If for instance the passenger was seeing everything you were seeing then it would probably make them sick. When you look to the left..your view changes to the left. However your passenger is probably looking to the right. He certainly won’t be moving his head around in sync with yours.

Two headsets sound great in theory but I doubt it’d ever work, with one pc anyway. It might work using two pc’s and two copies of MSFS one day, in multiplayer.

Yes there is, I haven't tried it either but it connects two players on different PC's:
