Miner Wars 2081

Post by outfctrl »

This is a new game in alpha stage and looks very interesting. Will this game be supported in the future?

They have our SDK, and are promoting 6 DOF, so it's looking good. :)

Roger that. I didn't see any mention of the TrackIR so I thought the 6 DOF was button related or something.

Thanks

Anybody picked it up now that it's out of beta and available through Steam? I've seen a couple posts from the devs in forums stating they are planning TrackIR release and they also recently promised Occulus Rift support once it's available. But, I haven't seen any news on TrackIR support from them lately. Is it in?

I'm doing some digging. Last I heard from one dev was that it was going in, but then I saw some other references to a potential post-launch release. I'm hoping to get clarification shortly.

OK, it sounds like the devs that were working with TrackIR in Miner Wars were let go once the project was funded and a new team was put in place. I'm trying to connect with the new team to see what's up.

I supported the game almost 2 years ago. I can get the full version, but I am waiting on trackIR to be implemented before I start playing.
Keep us posted if you can.
Thanks for your hard work

I've connected with the new dev team, and they are hoping to implement in February.

Thanks for the heads up, Seth. I've been eyeballing Miner Wars for the past year, but I'm not jumping in until TrackIR is implemented. Here's hoping!

Feel free to pass that on to the Miner Wars devs. Knowing that there is strong demand for TrackIR certainly can't hurt. :)
