    Does anybody know if the Spacemonkey Plugin works for MW5 ?

    or is it just a Joytick input conversion ?

    i tried to install it but i had no luck .... spacemonkey does something with openmotion and has a modded unreal engine launcher but it seems that there is no motion data .... nothing ...

    doenst work for me ...


    Setup
    1. Navigate to the MW5 sub folder inside the Space Monkey install folder.
    2. Extract the contents of MW5Mercs_0.3.zip into the game installation, there will be a folder named MW5Mercs containing two folders named Binaries and Content.
    Usage
    1. Go to the main interface of Space Monkey and select a main config for Open Motion.
    2. Go to the main interface of Space Monkey and press the Open Motion button.
    3. Press the Initialize! button.
    4. Space Monkey will now wait for a connection from Open Motion and output telemetry automatically.
    5. Navigate to the UnrealModLoader_V2.2.1 sub fodler inside the Space Monkey install folder.
    6. Launch UnrealEngineModLauncher.exe
    7. Launch MW5

    there is also a wreckfest solution ... idk if that works

    tested it in theorie ...wreckfest do some output for telemetry in 64bit mode

    i got an answer on github. its definitly telemetry output, no xinput !!!! aaaaand it seems to work ... spacemonkey did the outputs !!!!

    was there a spacemonkey plugin in the dowload section, otherwise the output has Dirt4 format so maybe just start the Dirt4 plugin

    Hello, thanks for posting this! And sorry to 'necro' this old thread. I was wondering if the telemetry from MW5 includes the position of leg rotation? Perhaps this is what position z is doing?
