Video of 6DoF TrackIR with new Apache cockpit
Posted: Fri Feb 08, 2008 2:05 pm
I've created a new 3D cockpit for the Apache in EECH. And I've made a video which shows it in use with 6Dof TrackIR.
You can see the video in this youtube link.
To get the cockpit visit the EECH forum at SimHQ.
I have to say that the Apache's cockpit must be one of the best one to model as a 3D cockpit with TrackIR. Since the pilot sits in the rear seat you get a lot of depth as you can see the co-pilot ahead of you. In addition it has a lot of details in view (and partly blocking it), like all the cockpit frame, and all the little external details you can view from inside the cockpit, like the night vision sensor, wipers, avionics pods, handles, wire cutters etc. Maybe not the greates in real life to get your view blocked by all those deails, but makes for a great cockpit with 6Dof TrackIR
