[VR] "My legs are small and my cockpit is tiny" fix
-
Finally tried 125% scaling in the Reverb G2. Legs are now the right size, but the rest of the cockpit is definitely too big, it makes the F-16 way off to me (probably by 25%) It feels like a far bigger fighter like an F-15 now. I can somewhat measure this too, looking under the VR to the home cockpit’s MFD and ICP the VR ones are very noticeably bigger.
-
And with Pico 4 they are about 1:1 size with 125% , so its different settings for different VR goggles??
-
@haukka81, you have physical MFDs and/ICP at about the correct distance? A lot of people have their MFDs closer than actual if just desk mounted.
I really think it’s resolution or aspect ratio tied, because the scaling will look very different with the myriad of those you have with the Pimax 8kX.

@Atlas
The first time I tried the fix, I was in cockpit in VR and I didn’t notice any change either. I tried it again with the game closed, bumped to 125%, relaunched the game in VR, and the change was VERY noticable. -
@Boiler Nope, definitely don’t see it. Closed the game and shut off the PC last night at 125%. Did a flight this evening. Then closed everything, restarted SteamVR, set it to 100% (or rather, turned it off), reboot the PC. Did the same flight, maybe the cockpit is smaller but really difficult to tell and may just be placebo. Reboot the PC again, start up BMS, still not seeing any difference. Closed everything, restarted SteamVR, set it to 125%. Reboot PC. Start BMS. Not noticing any significant difference.
EDIT: I’ve set it to 200% and I do see a difference now. I guess 125% was just too subtle for me to notice.

OK I read this thread and it seems to most all here that 100-125% World scale seems right to most. but in mine I set my world scale to 180% and then it seemed like it should be.
I am trying to determine why I have such a big differenece in my world scale compared to most here. I had it at 125% and it did seem to tiny still.
I am thinking maybe something amis with my G2 or something, I just don’t understand why my scale needs to be so much higher to make it look correct?
-
With Pico 4 and 180% it’s family size viper
-
Note that U1 includes:
- set g_fVRIPDMultiplier 1.0; // adjust world scale, default = 1.0.
So you won’t have to use SteamVR work around for the scale if you don’t want to. apparently. Thanks BMS team, probably @chihirobelmo!

“My legs are small and my cockpit is tiny” is NOT a bug.
It is a FEATURE.Last week, I spoke to a RL Viper pilot (callsign “Stumpy”) who is quite short and surprisingly obese.
I asked him about this BMS bug, and he said: “VERY realistic. MY legs are small and - with a BMI of 39.9 - my cockpit is tiny.”
Mark this thread = SOLVED.

……
wait…
are you calling us short and obese?
-
@Ferde I can only speak for “Stumpy”.
(Rhymes with Pumpy)
However, if you are a Viper pilot, I AM confidently calling you short…

You difference in world scale is down to the distance between your eyes being different from everybody else’s. It’s not specifically to do with your headset, it’s to do with how your brain has learnt to judge the size of things with eyes the distance apart your eyes are… adjust the world scale is effectively changing the distance between the ingame cameras to match your real IPD (inter-pupillary distance).

So, we go in and change the number 1 to a number that looks good to us? Just trying to understand for myself. Currently I’m using a G2 with SteamVR set to 180. Thanks
-
@Dracfalcon yeah, haven’t adjusted it yet but 180% should be 1.8.

I’m sorry but no, the scale is inverted to common sense. numbers between 0 and 1.0 make the cockpit seem larger. 125% on steamvr is 0.75 here

umm I looked and seen no such line, can you supply a line number it is on or the section it is supposed to be in?
Thank you and BMS team

@The_Nephilim you add it to your Falcon BMS User.cfg. line number does not matter.

Let me know your thoughts. I will hold off until your feedback.
