I thought they were pedals too :/ o well... it's too bad this kind of thing isn't supported in all games ... it'd be sweet to have like 8 monitors for an fps or something |

actually I think this can be set up in some FPSs... I remember unreal turnament having an option to set up the view angle... you can set it to 360 and see EVERYTHING around you but it would be impossible to play on a single monitor... Though it would be afuly nice to be able to see whats going on around you in a FPS game  |

wow that's nuts.....but if u have so many screens, u look at one and then u dun't know wuts goin on in the other ones...cuz gotta spin around a lot. |
|
| Author: | SilverSprite [ Sun Jul 13, 2003 1:14 pm ] |
| Post subject: | |
nah i think it would be better.. at least now you can quickly spin naround to see enemies behind you.. man i want one of those soo badly.. |
|
| Author: | Tony [ Sun Jul 13, 2003 2:34 pm ] |
| Post subject: | |
well otherwise you wouldnt be able to spin around at all... this way you can keep an eye out on your sides and could even have a back mirror 
that would take FPS pwning to a whole new level  |

In the plane...is not how you see the whole area? So...anything wrong you can check 1 side....Mostly youd don't need to look left and right, but just in the middle 3 screens would do... |

it would be cool to have all those monitors... but not just for flight sim stuff. i mean, geez what a waste. that's thousands of dollars sitting there. if you want to be able to see around the cockpit better there's some infrared detector thing you can get. you mount the detector on top of your single (and inexpensive) monitor and then you have some red dot taht you put on your forehead. then say you want to see out to the left, you just turn your head slightly to the left and the view moves along with you. |

oo that thing sounds bitching Mazer. know anywhere you can find out more about them? |

i'll see if i can find out later... i remember reading about it in the july issue of pc gamer. |

i donno if that would actually be practical... to have a 180 view the "dot" gotta be preaty damn sensetive and you will probly often move a screen cuz you cant sit perfectly still while playing that CS game... and that would end up screwing you up more then it is good. |

who said anything about using that for cs? for an FPS obviously you're only looking around by using the mouse. but for a flight sim it'd probably be much more useful to use this device as opposed to ~15 monitors (that's for those who don't want to memorize a bunch of hotkeys). besides, there's probably some way to adjust the sensitivity. |
|
| Author: | Tony [ Tue Jul 15, 2003 7:54 pm ] |
| Post subject: | |
yeah, I know you can adjust the sensitivity... but if you still want to be able to view the monitor while image is rotated 90 degree... it gets kind of sensitive.. doesn't matter though... 3 monitors should be more then enough... Just configure other two to display the sides... and if you really want to pwn, one for back view as well |

i'm not sure i understand... you don't use multiple monitors for cs... do you, tony? |

well I do have 2... the big one for play and a smaller one next to it for back view (so noone sneaks up on me with a knife)
though no... I dont even have CS, I tried installing CS, but there was some problem with running it  it would freeze the machine or something |

AH HA...SO ITS NOT ONLY HIM. I know another guy whos CS keeped crashign/freezing when installing. CS ..is bad  |

yes, instead those cs players should play a game that isn't five years old |

a game that isn't 5 years old?
ah, you must be talking about the wc3 mod for cs! 
just kidding, i don't play that it's so dumb. but i do play cs. it's so much fun. in fact, besides nwn that's all i play right now. |
