fox_111 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Ever noticed, after playing Black Shark, when you close the game to actually get some work done, you get this little feeling of yawing and banking? I do all the time after playing. I can barely see my screen turn like the helicopter do. It get away after a short while, but still, it's the first game I play that do that to me. Good thing I don't get sea sick or have any motion sickness. I hope that, when I get my trackIR, it will be resolved. Anyone in the same boat/helicopter? :joystick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beugnen Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 not in games, but after watching an action film with lots of car chases, i feel like im in the film still when i leave the cinema and get back into my car hehe. its probably something to do with the eye being tricked into motion but the inner ear isnt fooled. thats why i cant read a book in a car as a passenger, i get car sick. the eyes see no motion but the ears sense it. brain gets confused, thinks there is something wrong and defaults to throwing up to rid the 'germ'. hardware: Alienware Area-51 7500 - 2x 8800 GTX 768 MB SLI - 4GB RAM - Vista 64-bit - Saitek X52 Pro - TrackIR 5 Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connos Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I get a bit of a headache and i think this comes from my headphones and the in cockpit helicopter engine sound.

TangoRomeo Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Not with BS .. however watching Arma 2`s new dynamic 1st Person view, gives me a somewhat dizzy feel. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNV8UbzA9UM 0:23+ sec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_111 Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 Look a little like COD4... Not that bad. They showed the twin seater ka... forgot it's name... Can't wait to play that game. Now back to BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HitchHikingFlatlander Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Play Guitar Hero on a big screen (60" or bigger) and that gives a pretty trippy effect. I believe playing certain racing games will do this too if you use the inside car view. http://dcs-mercenaries.com/ USA Squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mugenjin Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 @TangoRomeo Imo that's because you're only watching it without any clue's what was pressed. Anyway I believe that it's a lot different when you're actually playing it since you have feel the effects of your input. (I know I'm pretty bad at explaining ^^).

wickedpenguin Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I just bought Cachya head tracker over the weekend (can't afford TrackIR ATM) and tried it out. It works very well, but it's got about a half-second delay. Between that delay, my inexperience with head trackers, and getting used to the head motions, by the end of a two hour session I was feeling pretty motion sick. I think I was focusing too much on the HMS while moving the heli around and moving my head. Does TrackIR have a delay, or is it instant?

sobek Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Does TrackIR have a delay, or is it instant? Everything that is processed digital has delay, there is always some lag although TrackIR seems to be the one that has the least lag of all current systems, mostly due to it's high frame rate. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
