Title: Stall vibration
Post by: Jochen on May 29, 2000, 05:29:00 AM

How about adding stall vibration when your plane closes to stall?

Currently you viewpoint (head) moves with G load and it is very nice looking. It would be easy to implement small shuddering effect to warn pilot that he is closing the stall. This shudder would be somehow linked to stall warning sound.

the vibration would be pronounced to non existant depending on the plane

I posted an idea on WB boards a while back, asking for this. I figured since the plane shakes like crazy at overspeed, you could change that from a pitch-shake to a roll-shake. Maybe just total vibration, moving from front to rear. All in all it's a sound idea, all we need now is the darn thing in the game  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Seems like a great idea.  We could do away with the stall horn (or make it optional).  Some planes would vibrate a lot and give plenty of warning of impending stall, others would just stall without much/any warning.

Not only would it be more "realistic", it would give us more to (cough) discuss about the flight models.   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

I like the idea of different levels of stall warning for different planes  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) - unlike the current "universal" sound warning.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif)

You don't get the actual vibration, but at least you get the sound of it  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif):

(you may need to crank the stall volume up a bit in game)
