Hell yes. #xwvm announces public alpha.

I'm playing this for a while now having an absolute blast. This also works on #Linux including #HOTAS / #HOSAS and #HeadTracking with #Opentrack

Screenshot of a live stream showing the interior of a Star Wars X-Wing fighter firing it's 4 laser cannons at the same time at a target. The view is slightly tilted to the left because the player makes use of a head tracking device that controls the ingame camera.

Another game that implemented #Opentrack / UDP support after me bugging the devs: https://bitbucket.org/xwvmteam/xwvm-lfs/issues/954/linux-opentrack-camera-not-raising-udp

Love it when open standards are embraced ❤️

Think that's now the 4th game I managed to ask for this 🤓 That's a rather good track record, ain't it? Haha, sorry, I'll show myself out.

Updated https://simpit.dev/ - home of the #Space #PewPew #SimPit inspired by a #VF1 Valkyrie cockpit (#Macross)

That's a glorified #DIY joystick controller with an LCD ('MFD') and plenty of #RGB for my #Linux PC

Newest additions are my #XR sheniagans (and some notes on #Breezy and the usage of #IMU data as #headtracker), the games #AceCombat and #XWVM (#XWing / #TIEFighter) and a bunch of videos were updated.

Best viewed WITH an ad-blocker and patience (slow af).

There are some #XWing #XWVM still images that didn't make the cut for the video. Enjoy 🙃

Livestream recording: Space – Pew Pew – Playing X-Wing with XWVM Alpha again in my Macross SimPit

Played #XWVM (closed) Alpha with my #Macross inspired #SimPit. I’m simply in awe that I can replay missions from #XWing (or #TIEFighter) with more modern graphics and modern interface devices again. I spent _so many_ hours playing these #StarWars games as a kid.

This is the heavily cut VOD of the live stream over at @bekopharm@live.famkos.net (pick your poison):

This time I play with the native Linux version and my X52 Pro joystick (which means I actually have a chance of hitting stuff too). The following missions were played:

Historical Mission 2 / Wingmen Are Important
Historical Mission 3 / Sattelites Near Coruscant
Historical Mission 4 / Beating The Odds
OP 1: Destroy Imperial Convoy (Uncut)
OP 2: Reconnaissance Mission (Uncut)
OP 3: Fly Point During Evacuation (Uncut)
OP 4: Protect Medical Frigate (Uncut)

Kudos to the XWVM team, they are doing a stellar job here.

How we enjoyed X-Wing today.

A home cockpit consisting of 3 monitors showing the game. The central space is used up by an elaborate button box with many lights and a central display. The targeting computer of the X-Wing is duplicated on a 4th monitor embedded in the centre of the button box.

Star Wars: X-Wing Collectors Series with XWVM alpha

Played #XWVM (closed) Alpha with my ViperPit and with #XR glasses. I’m simply in awe that I can replay missions from #XWing (or #TIEFighter) with more modern graphics and modern interface devices again. I spent _so many_ hours playing this as a kid.

I go over the input settings and show it’s capabilities to connected various joystick devices, demo the Proofing Grounds and showcase mission 1+2. In the end I go over various settings for the XWVM engine and how the machine hardly sweats displaying the gorgeous cockpit.

The game was played with #Viture Pro XR running in Side-By-Side mode thanks to ReShade on a Linux PC.
