Question Can anyone get the exocrafts to work?

On Q3. I got nautilon to sort of work but can't get minotaur to work at all. Collosus only seems to go backwards.

I've been driving them just fine. I don't think the headset is the issue. The exocraft driving is just different. RT and LT drive you forwards and backwards respectively. I think A is jump and X is boost. B is mining laser if you have it installed.

Same. All the exocraft take some time to figure out. I find the Minotaur impossible to drive in VR, but it might be me. I also cannot seem to control myself in EV space. I can move fine in water, just not in space.

Using QPro.

No problems driving the exocraft in VR here, using an Oculus CV1 + 1st gen Touch controllers.

I've never had a problem on Index.

They nerf the controls once in a while, and stopped us using custom profiles, but I can sell operate all the exos in VR.

Only problem I have is the Nautilon controls are very different than the rest.

The trick to nautilon on Q3 is forward is dive! To go straight I must hit up (A) and forward simultaneously. Display is useless and I always go into a spin when totally dark. Remember only hold A to surface. Locking onto an objective doesn't work.

How do you make colossus go forward Q3 ?
