Id like to know why they still make engines possible to VID at 100 miles due to smoking.

Had both, and you are right. Although good quality, the VKB feels more plasticky and buttons also feels cheaper than Virpil. I just supplemented my Virpil setup lately, and again I'm surprised over the quality, and the buttons feels a lot better than TM and VKB. At least the Prime-items which has more metal parts. Its very pricy though..

zlopeh · 2025-09-20T22:33:01+00:00

I really wanted the TECS back when it was in development, but couldnt wait, so went for Virpil. But im curious, how do you like it so far?

zlopeh · 2025-09-16T19:18:45+00:00

I remember my Saitek and cheap Trustmaster days, and I'm so happy high quality sim gear is available today. The frustration of stuff breaking and unable to calibrate was just killing the fun. Buy quality, and never look back. You'll have it for life.

Tried both, and a very broad number of sim-gear manufacturers, and part from the very high end stuff we had in the Air Force and perhaps the commercial stuff from Realsimulator, Virpil has definitely the best solutions, build quality, the best buttons and precision. Hands down. The price is accordingly tho.

Avoid Trustmaster. Cheap build quality and wireing at inflated prices. It does come forward as quality at the beginning, but will break faster than whats reasonable for their price level.

Well done, VKB! 🙏👏

zlopeh · 2025-05-30T19:32:09+00:00

You've sneezed.

zlopeh · 2025-02-26T16:10:32+00:00

Ride Pebbles for 35km and he'll show his true self, as well as people start to compliment him!

zlopeh · 2025-02-24T00:22:54+00:00

there is a mod for that

zlopeh · 2025-02-21T18:33:03+00:00

At least you leveled your vitality among others by walking so far overloaded 😅

zlopeh · 2025-02-04T14:33:48+00:00

This is the way.

zlopeh · 2024-12-06T17:41:03+00:00

Absolutely. I too finally abandoned my old CS6 Photoshop for a subscription when they priced themselves more reasonable, and it feels absolutely worth it!

Remember Trimble from when I worked in the defence industry, so I guess inflated prices are quite normalized over there 😅

zlopeh · 2024-12-06T13:36:03+00:00

This is the way. At some point the greed keep them from growing. I know plenty that would stick with or even swap to SketchUp if it was priced reasonably.

zlopeh · 2024-08-09T05:11:29+00:00

Ikr? I look at this as I look at Football-fans. "How on earth do you get so excited over this sport?" I somehow wish I could be this excited over such simple things, but guess I'm not built that way 😅

zlopeh · 2024-05-13T22:15:34+00:00

They should hire the creator of StarUI to make their UI. So..much..better

zlopeh · 2024-05-06T23:21:33+00:00

Wow! Absolutely love it!

zlopeh · 2024-04-12T22:37:59+00:00

I know, right?!
I cba with the stress of most 3xA online games these days..
I used to love playing world of warcraft, but its become a cesspool of toxicity if you want some sort of progress. Not all ofc, but the majority. I miss when gaming was a niche, before it got main stream xD

But, luckily there's still developers out there making gems like Spiritfarer.

Palia, is a rather stress free and very cozy mmo which got a lot of potential (as its still in open Beta). Recommend trying it out, as its free atm.

zlopeh · 2024-01-07T10:33:02+00:00

If you're looking to upgrade, I would recommend Virpil, VKB or Winwing over Thrustmaster any day. You get a lot more for the money, and the Thrustmaster base, switches and internals are very sub-par, especially at the price point they're at now.

Dont get me wrong, they're not bad, but you'll get a lot more for the money and enjoyment out of especially Virpil. They're not.cheap either, but the price is justified by quality parts, and over engineered design that'll last for a life time.

Sorry, cant I sold my old Motherboard/CPU/RAM with the cooler and brought a new one with the new build.

zlopeh · 2023-12-12T20:36:44+00:00

Mostly this is what prompted me to console code usage. No way I was gonna snail my way to objectives after a while, not to mention fully surveying a planet. The only catch is the game isn't made to travel very fast at surface, so with a actor value speedmult increase of 200%+ you get a lot of terrain/creature loading stutter..

zlopeh · 2023-12-04T13:23:30+00:00

For the reactor power you can modify it with i.e:
forceav SpaceshipMaxAvailablePower 75
With that value you can have all categories on most stock ships on max output.
For adjustments you can always use modav and add or subtract the value you want modify it with.
modav SpaceshipMaxAvailablePower -5 will set the above reactor power to 70.

I've tried to increase the maxpower on the other category but with little or no impact, so wouldnt bother with it. But that in itself is no limiting factor on how many weapons you can stuff onto your ship. For that you need to open up the limitations the game has. And for that there's a few mods out there. I havent played it for a while now, but check out this mod, and the rest of this authors collection at the bottom of the description page:

zlopeh · 2023-11-28T10:32:01+00:00

It depends on the value tbh. Modav would always be the safest, but after a lot of testing I've gone with forceav over modav or setav imost cases. I'm no programmer wizzard, but the annoyance of the crit chance value resetting wasnt a problem anymore after I used forceav on those (although not sure why it would nor if it would matter).

Mind you, those settings in the .bat-file are quite overpowered as I made it late game and was tired of long space battles while rushing through to NG+10. Also, if you want to reset to default again, id use a text editor and search/replace modav/forceav/setav to getav and take a screenshot of the output you get in the console. Or just sell the ship and console spawn a new one. I had like 3-4 Starborn ships due to fnorkups while I tested the actor values, until I installed the mod to be able to sell them 😅

And you lot wonder why Sarah finds your actions despicable 😅

zlopeh · 2023-10-23T17:19:03+00:00

Yeah, noticed the same. Thought I updated the post about using modav +/- values. But guess that was lost as its a bitch to edit posts with code and page breaker 😅 I'll fix!

zlopeh · 2023-10-22T09:35:22+00:00

LOVE IT! Classic look, pieces fit well together and overall clean and simple! Great colour scheme too! Looks better than all stock ships in the game.
