    Totally agree, that's the reason why someone proposed very good advice, that one to open a Patreon page because such a huge amount of work must be gratificated somehow. I support the idea of a Patreon page as soon as possible. Thank you Pedro

    I agree with you! I would just like to get the real picture. it will be about a month or about a year. And as I understand it, the new version will not be free. I asked the question to understand for myself what time frame the release of a new version is possible. I really liked the old one. and there were no questions for her. But there are no plugins for new games there. and simtools works worse than flypt.

    @pmvcda I have FlyPT Mover 3.5.3 with the OVRMC output module, which has the "auto connect" checkbox enabled.
    When I start Mover and the OVRMC module window is not visible (either because it is hidden, or the option "Start minimized to tray if Mover opens with a file" is set), it doesn't auto connect. Only when the OVRMC window is made visible, it immediately connects. I'm starting Mover via a batch file and want it do run minimized to tray. Is there anything else I need to do to have OVRM auto connect in that scenario?

    I disagree. I don't want to subscribe to a relentless and constant subscription. I much rather make a one time payment.

    Patreon subscription is not mandatory, just as PayPal is not mandatory. That said I would subscribe to patreon to support the developer. Cheers

    Hello everyone. Help me, please. I can't find information about how to add a new rig. I want to try to make a 4DOF platform witn 4 linear actuator and test FlyPT.

    That depends on the geometry of your rig. What are the 4 DOF? If it is a square rig with an actuator leg on each corner, you need the 3dof with 4 linear actuators. That supports pitch, roll and heave DOFs. What is your fourth DOF?

    I don't think there is a preset for exactly this rig, but what might work is if you use the horizontal circular hexapod and limit sway and surge to zero. Just discard the inner two front actuators and pass the outer ones to your two actuators in the front.

    But I haven`t tried anything like this on my 2DOF rig, so don`t take my word for it :)

    Edit: or even better, make two rigs with the same geometry, additionally limit the first rig to zero degrees yaw. Now take the two front actuators from the first rig, and the back 2 actuators from the second rig without the yaw limit.

    It's a good explanation.

    Does anyone know if there was an update or fix regarding VTOL VR and the issue with only being able to see data in the source but nothing else working? I seem to be having the same issue as this quoted post and didn't see anything addressing it.

    hello. I want to use joystick source. It runs within FlyPT, but does not work when you go to the game window. It seems to happen when the window is switched. Is there a solution?
