Camera shake

[Andryl]

Should be cool and immersive to have a camera shake effect during carrier takeoff (and also landing) like in the linked video:

As you said, the shake is due to the camera. In person that shake doesn't exist and since we are simulating flying "in person" it makes no sense simulating a "camera shake".

 

 

The Hornet video is cool though.

 

 

S!

If the airframe didn't shake then the camera wouldn't either...we get shake at high AoA do we not?

 

I also recall a scene from Ice Hornet where the displays visibly shook/distorted when the engines were started up. Would be cool to have that as well, but totally a pipe dream.

This.

Also look at the movement of the pilot head every time the plane wheels leave the carrier

 

 

(1:30 min)

 

 

(imo, one of the best hornet videos on the web! :D)

There is definitely a violent shake.. significant bounce at the beginning and then a pretty violent shake off the end. difficult to clearly read airspeed through entire shot but doable.

Doesn't Lshift + J already provide that?

 

For external views yes.

Your head and eyes are very good at damping out shake, the camera is not a great metric for how the human brain experiences such acceleration, anything more than what exists would in my opinion be unrealistic.
