I dabble in coding, linux, gaming, HEMA, LARP, e-mobility, carhacking, simpits and… parenting?
I want to see you play “Simon says” on this thing.
I’m not even surprised: https://wokwi.com/projects/328451800839488084
So yeah… I could 🤓 Would have to adapt this for my Mega but that’s details…
I know of http://www.novaimages.de/bridgesim/#media_images
There’s also Artemis Spaceship Bridge Simulator and I know at lease one guy who plays and works on a Empty Epsilon bridge.
For SC there is this madman in Florida (chrchr): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1w6eAHwfFo
So I guess you know about Hunternet Starfighter or Rixer already?
So say we all :)
At least we’ve Diaspora I guess.
my first version was cardboard too and I also call it my little fire hazard 😜 The backside is really ugly. Thanks for your comment. My 10yo self is very proud and happy that I finally built this.
funny that you’d ask: https://tube.tchncs.de/w/faN4WZixzaRqusUCn8fEpP
that’s just a video loop though 🤓
Not going to defend ED but this type of game is usually more about the journey especially with friends. Yes, the grind is unreal and also nothing for me which is why I almost completely ignored engineering so far. I do enjoy other parts of the game though.
100h? My would you look at my SC playing time: just 57h and half of that is walking back to the spaceport xD
I see. In theory that’s possible but there is no game that has this as virtual cockpit as well. I know this exists for e.g. “real” jets but it’s really not for me. Getting motion sick fast (even from shaky YT videos), wearing glasses and like drinking my beer while simming.
Mostly Fedora.
There’s always the one that can’t grasp that VR is not for everyone (or that making something is also a hobby).
Star Trek Fleet Command
Nope. I’m aware of various bridge command sims though :)
It’s just not really my cup of tea.
I edited this and removed the Markdown. Hope it shows now?
Wait… does Markdown not work for kbin too??
Sounds like Markdown went Markunder on your Lemmy client? 🤔 Try the source of this post maybe: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/5164302
Space Pew Pew is more a category ;-)
And there are a few other input options that aren’t seen much any more:
I raise the bar. Using a DIY 5.- EUR head tracker in NMS mapped to a virtual gamepad and my X52 Pro joystick mapped to another virtual gamepad and some keyboard keys just because (Why waste a perfectly fine HOTAS system just because the game is too stupid to support this?) :D
…and also KBM because this is simply more comfortable on foot.
Yes, it’s complicated and it absolutely depends on the game and even… location? Like, on the couch I prefer some sort of gamepad controller too.
We met on the Mumble like 3 days ago :P
Alas yes, join the SC LUG. It’s the best LUG out there [for penguins] 🤣
Plenty but mostly snippets only. Nothing cohesive for a while (3 kids don’t leave much energy for YT).
There is a project website: https://SimPit.dev (slow af, backyard hosted but ads and tracking free) There’s also a PeerTube channel: https://tube.tchncs.de/a/bekopharm/video-channels I did make one of those dreaded YT Shorts (not going to do that again - that’s just pain): https://www.youtube.com/shorts/BoJHZQpK2Iw
Other sources may be derived from the project website or my blog 🤓
Mission accomplished 😜
Edith says: This is mostly because I don’t have any icons for X4 yet. The HUD app (written in React) can switch that on the fly but I’m really not big on the gfx side and that’s also a lot of hot needle coding going on. Currently also experimenting with Rive animations that are more suited for classic MFD applications. See this [unlisted] demo snippet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suik2_baUfU
Wasting away hours with Ostriv. Alpha/ea or not. It’s not stressing at all, in default even very slow and can be paused. Goes great with an audio book 👌
Alas activity slowed down a lot recently. Which is not very surprising considering the dev lives in a freakin warzone :-/
Laughable selling this as “Improving gamer experience” breaking another existing standard.
Saying this especially from the DIY angle where custom controllers are kinda the thing.
Also lol because “competitive” gameplay. Gear always wins the day - just like in meat space.
Ah well, one good thing may come from this: Plenty of cheaper second hand controllers that I may buy as replacements to connect to my Steam Link. This one isn’t too picky when it comes to controllers. My current mix on that is a Steam Controller, a Wii-U controller and some no-name “works-on-all” wireless controller.
