Title: Could this app work with AH's VR implementation?
Post by: Wraith_TMS on May 02, 2017, 03:34:29 PM
Not sure myself, but would this app have any utility/value within AH?  From the initial comments, it was developed for DCS but may work with other flight sims:

Since HT has added flight control utility for Vive controllers, so that the wands can be used for flying, would this app add even greater interaction/immersion with the VR cockpit, even though capability that isn't native to AH at this time (sort of how SweetFX and Reshade, FTNOIR and other little apps manage to integrate well with AH)?   Would it be adaptable to use in AH with Touch controllers too?

FWIW,

Strange... works okay for me, 1stpar, tested it before posting and again just now.  Can't say what's wrong, but the link is a standard one to a forum thread on Reddit.

tbh would be nicer to see something like this:  https://flyinside-fsx.com/  (for both AH and DCS)

Why?

You can still use your normal stick and throttle etc, but it gives you the ability to use your hands to toggle things within the virtual cockpit.

That would be pretty cool since we have movable parts in the cockpit already.  :x
