Interesting VR features in P3d V4.1

A little down the page you'll see - General Platform Updates

Perhaps everyone knows this, but I didn't;
•Added support for 4k Virtual Cockpit (VC) textures

Has anyone heard of a 4k headset yet?

There are other useful points, but that one popped out and hit me in the VR face.

Also;
•VR can be enabled at startup with the “EnableVirtualRealityOnStartup” Prepar3D.cfg option


This one should be useful to many. I haven't been able to use Plan-G due to this problem;
•Fixed an issue that prevented legacy Prepar3D v1 SimConnect apps from properly connecting

There are no 4K headsets yet, but don't confuse: they are talking about the texture resolution for the VC, not the screen resolution.
Until now, the VC textures were somehow limited to 1024x1024, which can be a bit low. Now 4096x4096 should bring some really crisp-looking VCs :)
