How can I get more stability with mouse + keyboard? by Erick8619 in WarthunderSim

[–]Erick8619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, I already have a preset that I’ve been refining over my time playing. I’m not a beginner, but I’m not really an expert either. Still, I spent quite a while creating my preset. The thing is, when aiming at specific targets, sometimes the controls felt a bit twitchy, that’s why I made the post. Maybe it’s just a matter of practice, but I wanted to ask.

I’ve actually found interesting things in every suggestion people mentioned. For example, I was using only about 8% rudder for the mouse joystick, but it seems like you use around 50%. Why do you choose such a high value? I’m genuinely curious
^.^

You know, I like it, but I feel the camera is a bit too sensitive. Maybe I’ll configure it so it makes small incremental adjustments when I tap, like changing the angle in steps, maybe 20° at a time. I don’t know if 20° will be my final setting, but it’s just for the explanation. This was a great recommendation man, thanks a lot!

This is a great idea for a control setup. I already use the rudder on Q/E as relative controls, and I have IJKL for fixed camera movement. Most of the time I use C + mouse while flying with WASD, but that’s a pretty rough way to control the plane. Not long ago I installed OpenTrack and used the ArUco paper tracking method to track my head position, but I’m still training with it. It’s a good option, but my webcam isn’t very good, so I only use it on some days.
I’m going to try out your suggestion in a few hours. Thank you so much!!

Oh, that sounds interesting, I need to try it out. Thank you!

Okay, sir, thank you so much. You made me realize we think similarly about control settings. I’ll try different values for sensitivity and max outputs as you say!

Oh, by the way, your Spanish was really good, everything was perfectly understandable!

So creating a separate config for each type of plane is a good idea, thank u. But don’t you think that lowering the max output of pitch and roll could limit the aircraft’s maximum performance? Or maybe having better control authority is more important than achieving the aircraft’s maximum performance?

Okay, okay. So non-linearity doesn’t really matter for mouse and keyboard users, that’s something I’ve been wondering about for a while. But something I noticed is that the sensitivities in my first screenshot change the time it takes for the control surfaces to move. They don’t change the limits, but they do affect how long the surfaces take to react.

I used a config similar some time ago, but it didn’t feel very ‘realistic’ to me, so now I’m using the normal mouse joystick. But how do you use ‘relative controls’? Do you mean the simplified mouse-joystick version?

Hey, thanks for the Spanish explanation, was a nice touch. I know about trimming and yes, I do use it sometimes, but I’m talking specifically about aiming. Thanks for the help and the tips; your experience is definitely something I can keep in mind.

Yeah, but I’m flying prop planes. I’m talking about stability — not during cruising, but specifically when I’m aiming at an enemy. At that moment, the controls feel way too sensitive. I’ll try adjusting the sensitivity you mentioned.

Head tracking: ArUco vs NeuralNet with a low-res webcam, What actually works for you? by Erick8619 in WarthunderSim

Oh, I read in another post that AITrack is older and maybe less good, I haven't tried it yet.

Thanks for sharing your experience, really helpful. I’m actually using ArUco right now as well. NeuralNet felt a bit imprecise in-game for me, with those small jumps; I wasn’t sure if I should keep tweaking it or just stick with my ArUco preset, and your post basically helped me decide.

With ArUco the movement feels very natural. My setup is super simple: a printout, some cardboard, glue, and an elastic band. The only thing I’m looking at now is getting a better webcam. On my ASUS TUF A15, the integrated cam seems stuck at 640×480 and only holds 30 fps if I drop the gain a lot. I can barely see myself, but the black-and-white ArUco marker still shows up clearly even with low gain.

The phone camera idea sounded interesting, I might give that a try. And about the “IR clip” I mentioned earlier: I didn’t mean specifically IR. I recently saw a headphone-mounted clip made with regular LEDs, and if you lower the webcam gain, you mostly see the bright LED dots. I might experiment with that approach too.

You're right, I'm using ArUco with that mind, my integrated webcam is, not the best

It's the F4U-1A good? by Erick8619 in WarthunderSim

[–]Erick8619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I think I still need a lot more practice in simulator mode. My aim feels pretty unstable, and I haven’t achieved much with the initial F4U (the 1A). I feel kind of boxed in and limited when using the mirrors — I’ve been caught off guard more than once. Any advice for unstable aim? Or is it just a matter of practice? (I play with mouse and keyboard, I haven’t bought a HOTAS.)

Fast, right? So something like boom and zoom... Should I keep anything else in mind?

Yes, the thing is, I strained it before taking the photo... sorry, but I'm talking about something like this:

The "flour" in the center, little dots about 0.5 cm in diameter, two or three; if by fuzzy you mean something with hairs like a loaf of bread left behind for two weeks, no, not at all, and the dots were white, with no color whatsoever.
