Carrier operations: sense of deceleration and acceleration

[Raven (Elysian Angel)]

Hey,

 

With all upcoming love for carrier operations, I'd like to see some forced pilot head movement in F1-view (including for VR) when landing on a carrier (Cy-33 + F/A-18 + F-14), and launching from the catapult (F/A-18 + F-14), to simulate being thrown forward when catching a wire, and backwards into your seat when launching.

Since "cockpit shake" is already an existing feature in DCS, hopefully it shouldn't be too hard or time-consuming to implement :)

 

This will, in my opinion, greatly increase the immersion for carrier operations :)

 

 

 

Regards,

Agreed!

 

Though, setting this up for VR users should only be done with the utmost care, since all non-player-initiated movements in VR are the worst in inducing motion sickness.

 

As for normal desktop use... yes, I want this.

There is head movement after carrier landing shown in the latest trailer:

 

at 2.12

 

Might be a bit nauseating in VR though

would be nice! of course with an option to enable it.

This is probably TrackIr?

Why not just turn on "allow headmovement by G-forces" in the options menu? It does exactly that...or is it too weak for your tastes?

Yes.

I'll let you be the judge of that:

lmao, does it even do anything at all? :doh:

I like the little bounce before the catapult launch, unfortunately Kuznetsov is just a stunt jump...

I wouldn't mind seeing some post processing effects for the grey-out and tunnel vision from the acceleration and eyeball flattening that comes with a catapult launch.

If you have a VR headset, the best thing you can do is put your computer chair on rails with massive springs on front and back to give you that acceleration/deceleration effect...;)
