Sixaxis

[vonklinkerhofen]

I was just wandering if it is possible to use the sixaxis function on BoP?

I tried it on the somewhat dodgy blazing angels game, but it seemed interesting...

Waiting patienty for the demo! ;-)

Could be used to look around the cockpit perhaps?

[vonklinkerhofen]

Yes, I got that answer from other players/aces as well....

Cockpit viewing would be the best use for it IMHO. I think it doesn't work to well for flying.

[vonklinkerhofen]

Yes, I posted it as a dev suggestion.

I only tried it with the shitty game (BA), but why do you think it woludn't work?

Not accurate/presise enough?

Well I myself will use a stick.
One thing I do not like about it is I don't like to move my entire arm or body just to move the gamepad around, and this is a given because it is unnatural to just ben your wrists.

I tried it with BA and didn't like it, I feel like I had less control.

Good point... I guess it will be the Thrustmaster HOTAS X for me. I have played the PC version for about a year with a stick, and it kicks ass...

[trk29]

Yes it is very fun with a stick.

Ya, you're better off with a stick. i really haven't seen the game yet that can use sixaxis as more than a gimmick. and in games that use it as a main control input, it feels too loose, isn't precise enough.

I'll set to look around.

[vonklinkerhofen]

How do you look around the cockpit when using a stick?

On the 1946 Forgotten battles it's obviously with the mouse...

Do you guys connect a keyboard to the console? It may be a stupid question, but I'm curious.

[BadByte]

Cheap bastardy 101, yes as a standard usb keyboard is cheaper than sony's "textpad" clip-on.

[vonklinkerhofen]

Cool... So the mouse is the look-around tool!?!
