As a seasoned SC pilot, it never hurts to learn new pointers. Your teaching style is succinct and eloquent. You got yourself a new subscriber.

[@TeddyLindsell]

It’s like zeroing your sights , fine tuning your aim, I actually never fully understood esp until I watched this vid…yessss another sub and look forward to checking out your channel properly. Thanks

[@merlinfanboy556]

I honestly expected this video to be some kind of clickbait but this was actually informative and not some blatantly obvious stuff that gets mentioned in literally every single SC tutorial video! You have my sub :)

[@pixel.citizen]

Great vid. Original Kickstarter backer here and I've never bothered to tune my control settings. Gonna give it a go now

[@FuriousImp]

How did I only just find your channel? Subbed! Very good and concise!

[@bjordan429]

This! I've been struggling to push further, so I decided to go back through tutorials looking for things I may have missed. This is game changing; an actual pracitce to tune in ESP. Thank You

[@HitomiOokami]

Love the vid, sadly I'm a little confused about the "explanation" bit where you want us to find a comfortable setting for flight. You use "curvature" and "sensitivity" so my confuzzlement is a if you mean the ESP curvature or mouse/stick sensitivity/deadzone settings along with the VJoy Range settings. During the "Exercise" you mention 1.0 and 1.2 but again I'm sadly bit lost on which of the sliders you mean. >///< just hope for a lil clarification, am sorry it didn't quite click.

[@SidShakya]

Another new thing I learned today in Star Citizen which I have been playing for 3+years, man so much to this game.

[@Daedalus29]

Short, precise, straight to the point, this tutorial was a lot more helpful than expected.

[@daedra-nm7lt]

I can't wait to get my sticks, it's gonna be such a game changer. I've been bingeing a bunch of your vids just to get all of the info in my head lmao. So concise and easy to understand, thank you for doin what you do

[@MystisNykoto]

I picked up some Gladiator NXT sticks about a year-ish ago, and they have been a total game changer

[@vericz]

Recently got my dual sticks (alphas) and spending a lot of time just fine tuning the bindings and curves. HUGE difference right away tho

[@Eggsecuter]

What sticks are u getting? I’m buying a whole new pc setup and planning on getting VKB Omni throttle left and a VKB space fighter right. I’m just unsure as a dropped a ton of money on the new pc parts lol

[@rags619]

Thanks for the tips. Upgrading my dual sticks helped a lot with light fighters but I’ll try this as well. You got yourself a new subscriber

[@ukwerna]

Hey nice, have been playing for years and also fly in DCS a bit, but this never occurred to me in SC. Cheers

[@JuneBugJoe]

so tighten the circle a bit and increase the slow down. got mine at 6.5 and 1.7 - surprised no one else has posted what felt decent. Id like to try other peoples numbers

[@Myhammie]

@JohnathanWinters Also, regarding the ESP zone size you state, "If you find while you are trying this that your PIP feels unstable or that you're overshooting too much, then it's time to lower your degrees." Did you mean it's time to INCREASE your degrees, as in to make the ESP field larger? If the area gets smaller, it's even easier to overshoot or be unstable.

[@JohnathanWinters]

Correct its raise, added a pinned comment.

[@Dubstepconcept]

Such a great channel, fantastic info and straight to the point. You deserve WAY more subs my dude, keep it up!

[@SwedishLatino]

I have been pvping for a few years in SC now. Bought dual sticks 1 year ago and still havent mastered them tbh.. But this will surely help. Thanks man! Definitely liked and subbed, keep em coming cheers!

How to adjust the precision damping curve and precision zone size for mouse and keyboard? These two enhanced option are not available for me above the VJoy visibility?!

[@katastrusmega8928]

This was very well crafted. Great video.

[@mikeled1754]

I think you can increase the speed back to the pip by doing a quarter roll towards the target the turning towards target, instead of flat turning towards the target.

[@ChefboyRD253]

Good stuff. Thanks!

P.I.T.W. targeting it will give you instant relief and only Star Citizen has mastered this targeting system. Pissing In The Wind requires just the right amount of angle to get the best arc to hit the floor in front of the target... After all that is how lasers work, for realz!!!

[@ezequelcisneros5097]

what ship is that at 1:04 mark

[@LibertyOrDeath87]

First of all, thank you for the videos. I just started watching/rewatching as I’m trying to get better at pvp. To set a hold for ESP off, do I just hold the button down when setting the keybind?

[@Myhammie]

@JohnathanWinters In your video you talk about the circle strafe. Fortunately, I knew what you were talking about. However, not everyone does. You then referenced a link in your description, which is to a playlist. Unfortunately, you DIDN'T say which video on your playlist was the one related to circle strafing. For those of you looking for the circle strafe video, it's titled "Why You’re Easy to Hit, How to Stay Evasive | Star Citizen Guide 3.17.2".

[@JohnathanWinters]

Your right, corrected.

[@commanderoof4578]

I turned off most of the “”assist”” features as they annoy the heck out of me Target in sight and moving fast = cant put target down sights as the ship will not turn at the required speed even under full input I also like to have a fixed curve that doesn’t change with any change happening in real time because its a pain to have to adjust to the game when things change on and off I also have it set so my head is fixed looking forward without zoom or target tracking because that also annoys me because it prevents me seeing my MFD’s correctly and sometimes at all

[@danth3man763]

How do you set your head to fixed? That stuff annoys me too and I can't figure it out either

[@commanderoof4578]

@@danth3man763 unfortunally i cant really remember But its a bunch of look ahead and look at target settings Think its 4 different settings each of which have multiple sliders or something Dont have the game installed right now and it should take over a week to install so you will need to look elsewhere to find out how

[@JohnathanWinters]

Game settings, look ahead disable all the features down there.

[@shrapnelface5978]

You just killed me in star citizen and I realized I liked this video but haven't gotten around to doing it yet. And since I need to bump my aim up a level, me thinks it time to check my especially settings

Great guide, keep them coming :)

[@banditcatcher.]

Could you do a tutorial for pip setting for the cutty black Ive got long tails

Good shtuff mang

[@Meatsie]

Great video, as usual :). Thanks for all your contributions to this community! Is ESP usable with kb/m or is it just for sticks?

[@JohnathanWinters]

Thank you, and yes it is usuable.

[@WhyDidYTstartThisHandleShit]

@@JohnathanWinters stupid question but, how do we know this function applies to kb/m?

[@JohnathanWinters]

[@GunmadMadman]

I’m greatly amused by Enhanced Stick precision being called ESP, like using it will let you fly like you have an extra sensory perception

[@Ellis01234567890]

at 1:32 how do I change my stick curviture from 1.0 to 1.2? Is that an in game setting?

[@AtlasM8]

I only see esp strength did they get rid of the other options for esp? Its like the sliders just disappeared I don't think they got renamed.

[@TFTrickster]

Stupid question but is the snap only for aiming with joysticks I’m on mnk and I don’t ever notice a snap

[@spacecowboy4804]

@justinwinters Hey brother I do not have the ESP toggle/hold option under flight movement. It just says "press" is there a way to change that?

[@bobbynova7417]

I don't have an option for "hold" toggle of ESP in my keybindings. Here's what I see: E.S.P. - Toggle On / Off (Press) @ui_v_ifcs_esp_hold What the heck is that 2nd one? Is that it and, if so, what's with the bizarre label?

[@Loco_Da_Ryder]

Nice info 👌🏽

[@Raylker]

Great info !! Thank u !!!

[@LeslieWorks]

I'm looking for some hardware tips. Currently I'm using dual sticks but I feel like I could be doing something differently and more efficiently. I come from a drone racing background so it was easiest for me to setup throttle and yaw on my left stick with pitch and roll on my right stick, just like my drones. Then used my hat for strafing. I need more control over my strafing but don't like to twist the sticks, that usually causes unintentional input. Foot pedals for yaw is like an airplane but isn't nearly as responsive enough for me. I know there is something I could change to aim better but I don't know where to start.

[@JohnathanWinters]

Not what you want in space. Right stick pitch and yaw, left stick strafes, twist for roll. If you don't have pedals, right stick rolls.

[@LeslieWorks]

@@JohnathanWinters so roll on pedals?

[@JohnathanWinters]

@@LeslieWorks No, strafe forward and back on pedals.

[@Tigs2]

Really sorry if this is a stupid question. Is this joystick only?

[@PsiQss]

Now the real question is, how am I supposed to "calibrate" these settings when I keep dying on wave 1 xD Great and informative tutorial though.

[@mohamed-amenyussuf1185]

does this work for mouse and keyboard as well?

[@danielthibault8470]

Thank you for making this tutorial. After keybinding the E.S.P. to a key, when in flight how do you know if it's on or off?

[@JohnathanWinters]

The bottom Left on Ship HUD, says ESP.

[@NY-Vice]

Does this also apply to/help Keyboard & mouse pilots?

[@otrain23airsoft]

What's your go to personal setting?

[@Shaabhekh]

I watched an Avenger One video from a few months back that went over ESP and he legit butchered whatever the f*ck he was supposed to be talking about when compared to how you explain it in this vid, lol Bookmarked for future reference :)

[@harryhunt1735]

where can i find ESP or is it just for people who use thrusters?

[@inzanegaming7293]

Hey! Hmm.. I'm trying to figure out how to explain without sounding absolutely braindead lol.. So when i use Vjoy i have a smooth turning and movement, but when i toggle my mouse mode it feels so stiff.. Like, if i were to make a U-turn i would have to move my mouse across my entire desk. But watching you it seems so smooth and you can easily make turns and follow the target. It's kinda like there's resistance... I hope this makes sense and enough info for you to help me out! Thanks, and keep up the good work!

[@JohnathanWinters]

Thanks, I get ya, I use joysticks.

[@gembrey11]

Why does lowering the degrees decrease the chance of overshooting the pip? Feels like it would be the opposite.

[@JohnathanWinters]

Gives your mind less time to respond to the sensitivity change. Like jumping out of a moving car, the faster the car goes the harder it is to not fall when your feet touch the ground.

[@gembrey11]

Will have to play with the setting since what you described is something i am struggling with. I am constantly overshooting and having issues "guiding" the pip on smoothly.

[@JohnathanWinters]

@@gembrey11 Just make sure to do it in the order specified in the video. Starting at 1:30

[@Sheppardsg1]

try it but still cant aim with joystick flying is ok and when it cames to aiming to target or blue circle aim is going so hard not smooth impossible to lock on compare to mouse

[@info767]

What about heavy fighters like an inferno? Can the same thing be applied too something like that too? I find I miss way too many shots before I can take the enemy out because of how sluggish the turning is with it so my aim just goes all over the place and is a mission and a half just trying too keep my aim on the pip.

[@JohnathanWinters]

This applies but find ur values in a light fighter. Heavies struggle against fast targets due to thier heavy inertia.

[@Theravetacoo]

How do you even get your hotas to work, got the thrustmaster t1600 and I'm 2 days into asking for help and using xml files that only half work..

[@JohnathanWinters]

Lot to do there, check the description and enter the discord, I'll help ya out.

[@hanswurst9866]

Is this possible with mouse and keyboard too?

[@Smokelessss]

I'm new to the verse and understand the basics for the most part. My question is how do you fight with just the crosshair and not the line that you use to look around? If that makes sense

[@JohnathanWinters]

That line is just an assist tool that indicates how far from the center your mouse is positioned. It has no effect on your aim. I use sticks so I don't need a line.

[@harrisdoesthings]

I noticed you're using LEAD pip, do your instructions apply to LAG as well?

[@JohnathanWinters]

They do

[@harrisdoesthings]

@@JohnathanWinters That's good to know, I got my butt handed to me last night doing some 1v1s, I haven't touched the ESP settings at all - hoping to find some wins in this department, thank you for your video.

[@juliah7492]

good video!

[@roddyrich2768]

where is the "sensitivity" setting he talks about. I've been digging around the menus for 10 minutes now, and the only sensitivity setting I found doesnt affect the sensitivity during flight. Its defaulted at 34, so it seems way too high for what he has in the video.

[@HaxaNz]

Game settings. Down near V-joy

[@JohnathanWinters]

Pause at 0:10

[@thorn-]

@@HaxaNz I think the confusion is that he keeps referring to the "sensitivity" setting, but the setting isn't called "sensitivity".

[@IsaardP]

I usually turn off assists like this but I'm curious about trying the ESP toggle and fire button on the same bind so it only kicks in ESP when you are actively firing.

[@Ibraav]

hi did you try binding fire and ESP? what is the outcome Thanks

[@IsaardP]

@@Ibraav I tried but its just more annoyance. There is no option to have ESP default off anymore and the ESP keybind is a wonky hold/toggle that isn't fit for use. You can go into the xml file and edit the keybind to just a toggle but then you have to dedicate another key to constantly "fix" the ESP getting turned on. Until they bring back the option to have ESP default to off, I would just leave it turned off. Not worth the hassle.

[@Avean]

Are you using mouse or joystick? Turning off ESP sounds hard to me. I have no control over my Virpil Alpha if i do that, just way too sensitive.

[@D3LTA69]

Can you give me your recomended setup for all of this points mentionned in this video for give us a "good base to custom" to our preference please ?

[@JohnathanWinters]

Start at 1.0 and work your way up, there is no best. Everyone is different and has different setups. Just follow the guide for each method and you'll figure it out for you. That said I use 1.2 yaw/pitch/roll 2.5 strafes esp curve 1.8 esp degree 7.4

how do i get mouse and keyboard to feel like this? or is it not possible?
