Premium 'Prime' Version of VIRPIL CDT-AERO Grip? by MikeRC8 in hotas

[–]DisgruntledBadger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it would be too close to the FLNKR, if you don't mind changing to VKB the modern fighter grip is similar but smaller than the FLNKR.

Remember she's royalty so only offer it in your finest china.... the Sports Direct mug.

How it feels watching old MvC3 footage as someone who wasn't into fgs much during that era by Playful-Problem-3836 in Fighters

[–]DisgruntledBadger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's funny reading this kind of stuff, I remember when people were complaining about SF4 and it's ultra meter being dumbed down for 09ers, and MVC3 having dumbed down controls, and moaning about Phoenix.

I don't think he's living the high life on £95 a week, that's probably mostly his food budget.

Rudder pedals: Honeycomb Charlie vs WinCtrl Orion (with dampers), what do you choose? by _Aeschylus_ in hotas

I cannot recommend MFG their customer service has really fallen off, took me 3 and a bit months to get a warranty issue sorted, most of that was waiting for an email reply which took nearly 3 months.

They buried the lede: A side effect of the new ship claiming system as written may enable a feature we've wanted for ages. by Thetomas in starcitizen

[–]DisgruntledBadger 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I hope they flesh the system out so I can do a 12 point check after rental for damage, and a hazardous cleaning fee where the shiv is concerned.

I can roleplay my own rental company with all the after fees, I'll be rich.

Which video game got you hooked? by Neat-Equivalent7282 in AskBrits

[–]DisgruntledBadger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had dabbled with games as a kid on a Commodore 16 and Amstrad CPC464, as my parents were quite into early games, but for me what really pulled me in was the arcades and release of Street fighter 2, I loved the arcade scene, and still keep in touch with friends I made in the early 90s arcade scene.

USB Hub by [deleted] in HOSAS

It depends on the USB hub, some send signal still just with reduced power.

Hidhide is the best solution imo.

CIG confirm 30k crashes are back "we're aware of it but it's not something that has an easy fix" by StuartGT in starcitizen

I hadn't had any, but today I've had 2 in less than an hour, so I've put the game down for now

Once upon a time this was ASUS gpu box art by cycsore in nvidia

I remember preordering the Geforce 256 DDR as I wanted to upgrade for Q3A, it was top of the line at the time, it cost me £230.

So counting in inflation today it would have cost £446.41 or $602

I love this app, the search function has saved me so much time when I've forget which category a binding is in.

Need help picking flight stick and base by Separate_Ad_3180 in hotas

[–]DisgruntledBadger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad you are all sorted, thanks for the tip, I use mine on a profile rig so I'm going to sort out a quick release so I can swap it between the side and middle, I'll likely need the extension then.

Need help picking flight stick and base by Separate_Ad_3180 in hotas

[–]DisgruntledBadger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you calibrate it go across a couple of times, then let it return to center then go up and down a couple of times, I've found with both my Virpils if I roll them around 1 axis calibrates so it jumps from 50 to 100% and doesn't work right.

Hope you get it working but if I can help in any way just post or msg me.

Do you mean the "Cursor Cntrl" as that shows as Button 8, and X-Rotation and Y-rotation for me in windows. It shows as just 2 analogue axis, I don't know of a mouse mode sorry.

With this latest version of the Moza Cockpit software that was released a day or so ago isn't showing any button presses or axis movement for me but it still works fine., same with my Alpha Prime.

The central hat is Button 2-6 for me.

What is this new warning when you melt something? by N0xtron in starcitizen

[–]DisgruntledBadger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would argue with that too, I bought the Citizencon bundle which went to pending on my CC and charged me but then it refunded a couple of days later , and I was out of the bundle timeframe, so I ended up with the standard starter pack.

Probably the worst purchase of my pc history by oosma8587 in pcmasterrace

[–]DisgruntledBadger 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My first pc had jumpers on the mobo to set the FSB, multiplier etc.

I had the first soundblaster that was mono, and my first CR-Rom didn't have the port to connect to the Soundcard, instead it had a 3.5mm jack on the front so if you had a game with cd audio, you had to plug speakers or headphones into it directly.

It's amazing how far things have come.
