I ordered MFGs on Sunday for the reasons of toe brakes and I need a pretty wide stance. I also got the WAP kit. That poo poo get here Friday, from Croatia. Now just waiting for the VKB TECS throttle to be released and my vomit inducing VR HOTAS setup will be complete.

Trillhouse posted:Are there any modern flight sims where you fly a helicopter around and do (non-combat) missions? Like Sim Copter but with realistic helicopters, basically. Take On Helicopters. Watch some reviews first though, there's reasons it has mixed reviews. Some of that is Arma people coming over expecting Arma flight physics while using a keyboard, and some of it is from actual pilots as the flight characteristics are lacking. I found it fun for a bit, but I have zero experience in a helicopter. Edit: Oh man, this might not even count as modern anymore, came out in 2011.

Dr. Video Games 0031 posted:Just get a VKB. The Gladiator NXT is a very solid-feeling, well-built stick with good buttons at a reasonable midrange price, and you can still couple it with your x52 throttle if you want (which I find to be a largely acceptable single-engine throttle for the price). I've been doing this for a few months now and its great. Main reason I'm replacing it with a Virpil throttle is I need more buttons for DCS.

skooma512 posted:Lost my TrackIR tiara There's ton of alternatives if you are looking for point models. I made my own, but Delanclip rules and there's a few others too. If you want purely reflective stuff or has to be a tiara, then yeah I think they are the only ones still using those.

Yooper posted:How often does one actually move engine throttles individually in a modern jet? I've got an X56 and I'm not sure I've ever done anything but move the whole throttle. For the F5 in DCS I have it setup so when I go over the first detent it puts the throttle into idle and I have to do it individually cause  Edit: Not exactly modern though...

Shipon posted:Yeah I have tried using my G2 in VRChat and it is...lacking. But for cockpit displays it's gorgeous *turns up graphics to max* WOW! Its so clear, I can read every dial and the game is still running at a whole 5fps! Seriously though the G2 is absolutely stunning coming from an Index & Quest 2.

Yeah I have not touched my x52 stick since I got the VKB gladiator. My X52 is old enough that I had to remove all the soft rubber with alcohol since it got sticky as hell.

So if you wanted to know about flight stick longevity, both the Extreme 3D Pro and the X52 show up in The Expanse. 200 years and still in production.

Sagebrush posted:The downloader is super slow because it downloads every single one of the 10,000 files in the update separately, halting the transfer and unzipping after each one, rather than doing it as one big blob that can reach maximum transfer speed and then decompressing and installing afterwards. What the gently caress. Programs where I manually had to download the zip and throw the contents over the live folder hitting "replace all" is better than that. It's at least 1 continuous download.

Vando posted:Outside of the training issues (extremely large caveat I know) stuff like generated ATC is 100% the correct use case for something like this, where the sheer volume of calls required is never going to be achievable by a human actor. It would be cool if we could trust that AI solutions were being used to extend what's possible instead of undercut workers at the first opportunity, but hey This is also where I landed. AI used in a complex system that actually furthers said system's abilities? Fantastic. AI used so they don't need to pay a voice actor? Get in the boo box. Funny that it both sucks and sounds like it was more difficult than just hiring an actor.
