Yeah, it started talking to my cockpit panel 🤓

Still a little rough on the edges but it's getting there.

Getting target data, a shiton of plane telemetry aaaaand the radio chatter 🤓

And most important: Angry blinken lights are now blinking angrily.

Missile! Missile!

Wohoo. I'm getting cockpit telemetry of #AceCombat7 in LUA.

Starting poking around #UE4SS mod for #AceCombat and slammed rocks together for 2 hours and it started chirping altitude, speed and health 🤓

Just a proof of concept so far but this looks promising.

Mission 01: Black Flag – Trying Project Wingman with my ViperPit

This is Project Wingman mission 01 Black Flag played on a Linux PC with Proton Experimental, OpenTrack with the Neuralnet Tracker plugin and my DIY HOTAS / rudder system based on Arduino Pro Micros replacing the original electronics in my Thrustmaster FLCS/Cougar gear:

I got Project Wingman on a sale months ago and I finally gave it a try. As an Ace Combat player I felt right at home. My initial experiment was with the XR glasses and woah that feels good in 3D and all but today I remembered that old Plasma TV in the basement. Got it second hand a year ago for dead cheap. Today I brought it upstairs to try it with the ViperPit and now I’m not sure what’s more awesome.

Well, that is if I feel like burning ~470W on top for that thing but hey this is for very specific gaming sessions only anyway 🤷

Guess I’ll spend more time in the ViperPit again 😀

Quick demo time: I got a touch display 17.3″ that will replace my rather old one in my VF-1 inspired cockpit panel.

Mostly because of the bad viewing angle. I’m not a huge fan of touch but sometimes it is really useful and if I already spend money why not go the extra mile 🤓
