    Hi, I am contructing my first motion sim machine, I WAS under the impression that the game I play (WARTHUNDER) doesn't support motion sim, so instead of building a Stuart platform I went with the non-motorized joyrider. I have recently learned that a plugin for motion data exists for my game and would love to convert my joyrider. Seems doable. and would be an excellent starter for the Stuart as far as learning is concerned, has anyone playing WARTHUNDER had success with the plugin?

    So far the War Thunder plugin only works with external view. @value1 is currently investigating what else may be possible. You can follow developments here: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/war-thunder-plugin.6231/

    As to modifying your joyrider then yes that is very feasible. There is a similar discussion going on here: http://www.xsimulator.net/community...uild-with-custom-peripheries-first-time.6338/

    But do post your project info on your thread here, including any questions, plans or ideas. You will find plenty of members will give of both their time and expertise to help you along.
