« on: November 04, 2002, 01:48:43 PM »
would really like to see tilting (rocking)head positions instead of side to side view..also tilting as you bank from side to side..also jaring on landing.
would like to see some acceleration head movement , like head moveing back slightly when throttle is oppened up.

just some suggestions:)

WWIIOL has this effect, and I really like it.  WWIIOL has some amazing ideas and AH should steal all of them   :D

Agreed!

 This is also modelled in IL-2. When you enter a high G situation, the pilots body swerves back against the seat.. It's really cool :)

And disable the 6 view, reduce head rotation speed under high G loads.

WBs has it, steal that, too ;)

Lets leave the problem causing junk from WWIIOL with that game.   If you don't like flying much then yeah lets bring the problems of WWII here to AH

It's not being very negative Selector, just being practical.   Head movement is just another form of eye candy which would use more processor power that many base line users don't have to spare.   As WWIIOL added more and more features people started having more and more problems with the game.   It got to the point that flying in that game was near impossible and so a very large number of the player base left.   Many like myself came to AH, and I for one think that we have enough problems with this game without creating more.   Maybe sometime after HTC fixes the many problems that have not been addressed, it might be a good idea but for now I say leave the problems they had in WWIIOL there and not here.   However if you want head movement then I suggest buying a good set of Virtual Glasses with head tracking.    Then you can use the pan mode and have realistic head views.   Oh by the way I am not slamming anyone here, but it's just my opinion, which like the old saying goes, everyone has one.

nah, we don't have to steal them, that could be a law suit, however we could be 'influenced'

we already have something like that in AH, when you pull up very hard, you'll get pushed down a bit.
or doesn't this count?:confused:

According to this post

head movent when pulling Gs is a bug.

Or something like that.

If you had that bug you would know it. I saw it once after I put my game rig together.

it looked like the camera viewpoint couldnt keep up with the aircraft, so it would move back (almost out of the cockpit), and then skip forward to where it was suppose to be. eventually things were moving so much I had to quit the game. after I rebooted everything was fine.

its not the same as the head bobbing, shaking you get when pulling g's/firing/compression.

Yes...those direct low 6 views are ridicilous in AH.

Seems like pilot can stand in cockpit with his back on moving direction while pulling Gs.
