Anyone see the SE VR video from Sektan?
Is that a real thing or did he just convert SE visuals to some VR graphics?

I've been asking for years to allow TrackIR so I can look around my cockpit while flying, especially with Cockpit LCD mods, and even more especially after SE update of Cockpits... I would even take the risk of using VR and get sick from my games eventually losing frames. Worth it imo. Be nice if this was a real mod or update.

The video is not loading for me, I will try later...

Tho I just have to hold the Alt (or Ctrl !?) to look around in my cockpit.

You can do the same in Arma 3 also but TrackIR makes life a lot easier and it feels more natural and Arma 3 has it, in fact I remember someone bringing up months ago, "why not allow TrackIR auto enable Alt + Look," can't remember if that was on here or Keen forum, obviously it's more complex than that but the function does exist, just mimic TrackIR movement with the Free-Look in Cockpit and viola!

So we would need a button to disable the mouse controling the ship (Alt like it is right now) and be able to look arround inside the cockpit without moving the ship.

Is that ^ what you want?

I don't play Arma3 = ??

That's why I said "obviously it's more complex than that" because I know that's what would happen, but if KSH did do something like that, they already have the function of "Free-Look" built into the game. They just don't have to disable the mouse while TrackIR is Free-Looking, you know? It's more complicated than just apply TrackIR but it seems it's almost everything is already built in the game for it, I just don't know how difficult it is to apply TrackIR directly to a game.

Ah! Ok, you could ask them on the Support Portal or Live on Twitch when they go live.

I will not add it to my report cause I will not be able to talk about it.

It's okay, I'm sure it was brought up before but Arma 3 is the only game I got that uses it and it's very expensive for what it does, I only read about 2 other people who have it. I doubt it would be worth it from KSH's perspective. Not like sales would go up because of that lol.
