Finally somebody using adequate pitch for surge. Can't wait to build it.

[@departedreality]

Use it if you've got it! I really enjoy mixing pitch and roll for surge and sway effects, especially in VR. It also makes a more interesting video haha

[@csoest24]

Man that looks intense!

[@ji3200]

Im surprise there is not much Heave movement on rally game. Did you set Heave range movement very low? If you set the Pitch and Roll set to low, do you think you can get more Heave movement respond? Thanks

Do you feel the road texture? Because the cam is shaking like hell but the rig does not?

[@departedreality]

Yes, the rig can output up to about 10-15hz vibrations pretty well. For higher frequencies, I rely on the transducer (Buttkicker/bass shaker). It is difficult to see the higher frequency rig movements in the video since the amplitudes are very small. I did add extra smoothing to help reduce the VR headset shaking for the video but there wasn't much improvement

@@departedreality you look like you need to use motion cancellation. I did it on my 6dof open vr from github

This is with MC using OVRMC. Without it the camera view goes outside the car haha

@@departedreality did you select the bounce option?

[@cdrseabee]

How much traction loss are you using?

[@departedreality]

For the video it was set to +/- 15deg. I think the yaw tuning could be improved, maybe reduce the dead zone
