Could 6-DoF ever be available in 4.2 if players could forgive small Graphics issues

[Cocoa]

Hello Gents,

Really interesting topic of course. I'm new to this forum, I have to tell I enjoyed the discussion on 6DOF.

I read a lot of comments and complaints of people without a tracking device. I'd like to suggest them to google "freetrack" keyword.It's not new. You will be surprised by it's performance and easyness. It is a free and excellent tool. You need to pay the cost of a webcam no more.

On the other hand, about the strapped-in pilots head movement. I think even if you strapped in your head can move pretty much. I experienced that in a cockpit. I had no problem to move left-right up-down my head, but yes i could not "zoom" in, and of course backwards view is somewhat restricted.
Now, moving along the "Zoom or Z-axis" is no issue we can forget it, as it was correctly pointed in a post : "that could be done even without 6dof in stock game", so it is not vaild point to discuss about, when 6dof is the subject.

Also I think that these days when TrackIR/Freetrack is avaible and 6DOF availbe, and it is enhancing indeed the inmersion, it is kinda silly not to include it. (I repeat freetrack actually democratize a lot the tracker-user community as it has almost no costs, and no high engineering skills are needed to do that.)

Of course with the 6DOF mod you can move further then in a real situation, but there is nothing else to relay on for 6DOF, so please include a proper 6DOF to the stock game and work it out with the limits it should have. That is the sane solution.

The argument that "trackir" users have advantage is again not too correct.

Why we dont limit then high end video cards, controllers with HOTAS, 1meter wide monitors all the rigs that gives 14440000fps, or longer view distance. Nobody would do that, I guess everybody is looking in this trade for a better immersion. 6DOF is a part of that, just like proper graphics etc.

I don't care about the small graphic glitches, I make no use of them 2mms between 2 panels..who would use that? Expet the spit where you have to see through the fusolage, want it or not, I recall maybe the Fw is like that too.

Small glitches or not I think there is no doubt that Il-2 has been the best on the market for a decade now, so maybe Mr. Maddox doesn't have to be shy about the small erros in the 3d models.

TD on the other side instead of giving us cirleing torpedos and guided bombs, (though I appreciate all kind of development-especially the G-load simulation which is something magical to have), could put more attention on 6DOF.



Soo my vote is a big huge "YES".

Thanks for your attention.

sorry for the ortography, had no time for spell check now....
