FIY Should update within 24h https://youtu.be/RIGkmqzJdfQ

It’s a 6dof racing game with a flight model similar to .

It does have a version but the world gen lib is single threaded on Linux so Proton may be a better choice for now.

It also features access to full ship telemetry and head tracking including OpenTrack via UDP thanks to my nagging đŸ€Ș

No idea about VR. Apparently it works but I can’t test that.

I’m not saying that has some easter eggs in it’s documentation but there is at least one Chubie (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhXoYgB7rPU&t=13693s) and a mysterious secret hidden in one of it’s demo elements đŸ€“

Had a good chuckle and now I wonder what the secret is. It wasn’t just base64 or rot13 tho đŸ€”

Is this a paper chase?

Okay, I did some recording of SpaceBourne 2 and added a voice over and even subtitles
 and I conclude that is way too much work but in case you’re interested into a sneak peak of this early access go ahead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz4uK2Irofo / https://tube.tchncs.de/w/5h9VoeHs5vTAu3bgptc7bN

Looks like children can fritter a ton of sand from a single sandbox within 5 years.

Possible that the cats help. The jury is still out on that. Nobody wants to touch the evidence đŸ€Ą

Played around with on the weekend. Mostly to debug my VAAPI issue and testing what runs well. It’s still a pain in the neck and some games I can only get to stream with tweaks but after all I’m kinda impressed. Not that it makes sense do play most of my library on a mobile phone but what works here does also work on the 55" in the living room đŸ€Ș

Run this with moltengamepad --num-gamepads 2 --mimic-xpad and press button on the joystick _first_ and on the throttle _second_ so they get assigned in the correct order.

This should result in two gamepads _and_ the X52Pro so even really braindead games that do only support gamepadS should be able to read this at least in any way.

If the game does support only one gamepad consider binding joystick _buttons_ to keyboard presses (e.g. with AntiMicroX instead).
