      I fully agree. This is the best solution, a "pilot in cockpit" because empty cockpits look so strangely fake and quick "ghosting" of the arms and stick when needed. Well done Razbam.

  • @harlas206
    @harlas206 Před rokem +26

    Awesome! If you can make it auto ghost when the mouse pointer hits the controls it would be so usefull! No need to hide stick anymore, ghosting when cursor moves over the controls or pilot model would skip the old toggle on/off problem we have today.

      ​@@the-joe-biden It'll be a frosty Friday in hell before arcade players need the throttle ghosted in order to click the APU switch. I think it's a great idea, and easily togglable with the same command that toggles the ghost/opaque modes. Just add a 3rd state for cursor ghost.

    • @harlas206
      @harlas206 Před rokem +1

      @@the-joe-biden Obviously it should be togglable in main options or something like that, I find the other option we already have by completely toggle It on/off more arcade. And the standard option of just rotating your head around things just to be able to toggle a switch even more ridiculous and arcade. Finding stuff like this arcade is just silly, there's not even a ground crew, optional labels, optional auto start, damage models, optional wake turbulence etc. See it more as help tool for those who want to fly with a visible pilot in the cockpit but still be able to use every switch instead of pressing a button to hide/unhide the models.

      I'm rather confident we'll get the Mudhen within the next half year... but don't ask me about the Phantom. "2022", they said. Q5 2022 was my response to that. And even that is almost over and since they haven't shown anything at all really yet, it's extremely hard to judge. We do have quite a good picture about the F-15E though already.

  • @cj-oc6ls
    @cj-oc6ls Před rokem +11

    You should ghost the pilot as well. If you want to be really clever about it, the ghosting can happen automatically when head tracking detects looking down. This would allow many of us to keep the pilot on most of the time and when we look down the pilot ghosts.

    unlike reality, as the pilot did not have to do that.

    Question: Do you simulate human hands limit or how to call that? Like the pilot will not be able to push two buttons on stick simultaneously. I think this limit is useless, but still. For example tuning TACAN volume while setting power does not look realistic. Probably useles feature still. :D

      Yeah right because everyone who does not have 1:1 cockpit shouldnt be allowed to enjoy the module. In VR (=only realistic and immersive way to play) you cant use keyboard binds reliably and binding anything to keyboard is just as unrealistic.
