Stuff and Blabla

🔥 Hell Yes! added UDP support for native under and I can finally talk about it 🤓 Yes! Yes! 🚀 🎥 I was to happy about it that I even did a recording while I had a bad cold and was hoarse just to show it off: https://makertube.net/w/wo4zAJiTFLeg8t2o93MLpL or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgOkGwMShT0 ✍ Took a while but it’s now in the open beta for 7.50 https://steamcommunity.com/games/392160/announcements/detail/4485117301459255318 It’s great to see another company embracing open standards and care for their niche gamers too ❤️

MH-Zombie

This one flew under my radar so far (haha, sorry): Rescue the civilians, race the clock, and raze the enemy in MH-Zombie, the world’s only helicopter arcade simulator! Three flight physics modes, three difficulty modes, and a tutorial mode provide a stepped learning curve and wider accessibility to realistic helicopter flight. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1429350/MHZombie The reason this came to my attention is because it’s one of the few games that [just] implemented via UDP e.g. available by (and various others). This is great because it doesn’t force people to jump the hoops of , which is only supported for Windows…

Video editing with the little one

The new smart phone also has various recording and post production possibilities – albeit limited – that she is playing around with a lot lately using her own drawings. This time she showed up with a game recording where she played some mobile game together with a school friend. They used Signal and headphones for voice and played together via internet while her phone recorded all of…

I love this level of nerdism. And I so hope they get to name that bugger 😄

Wow. The peeps at “found” a planet and reached it live on Twitch after a ~10h flight: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2294019904 Insane 🤓 😍 I so hope that the player “Heuristik” gets to name that bugger 🤣

I totally missed the memo but apparently there is a Linux version of for a while now: https://support.gameglass.gg/en/articles/9351904-installing-gameglass-hub-on-linux * Ubuntu 22.04+ * Linux Mint 21.2+ * Fedora 39+ Not a fan of GameGlass (I prefer my switches and dials, as you may know) but it’s probably of interest for other builders.

This works way better than I expected. This is a static image test for a HUD on my home cockpit using a dead cheap beamsplitter made of plexiglass and a smartphone o0

It has been a while that I tried . With the new Tracker plugin (AI haha) for we get head tracking without annoying IR LEDs or reflecting stripes just by reading the webcam video feed. This is apparently fast enough to try without a dedicated nowadays. And all that on a PC. Took some fiddling but the concept still works. What a time to be alive.

News from the department. I have absolutely no clue what I found this time so I’ll go with “probably something religious”.
