I've been playing XWVM today. It's a fan rewrite of 1993's Star Wars: X-Wing, requiring the original to play (there's a version of that available on Steam).

It's delightful.

It's still in alpha, and has a few rough edges, but it's extremely playable. Of particular interest to me is that they added VR support. Zooming through the Pilot Proving Ground of my childhood at a million miles an hour, only now I can look around, was a wonderful experience. They've also added two MFDs to the fighters that show the sort of data you got in the various paused screens in Tie Fighter: the map, the mission objectives, damage control, that kind of thing.

There was an official Star Wars VR game whose name escapes me that I tried a few years ago. I hated it. Too on-rails, fighters too sluggish. What I wanted, really, was this.

Highly recommended.

Updated simpit.dev/ - home of the #Space #PewPew #SimPit inspired by a #VF1 Valkyrie cockpit (#Macross)

That's a glorified #DIY joystick controller with an LCD ('MFD') and plenty of #RGB for my #Linux PC

Newest additions are my #XR sheniagans (and some notes on #Breezy and the usage of #IMU data as #headtracker), the games #AceCombat and #XWVM (#XWing / #TIEFighter) and a bunch of videos were updated.

Best viewed WITH an ad-blocker and patience (slow af).

Livestream recording: Space – Pew Pew – Playing X-Wing with XWVM Alpha again in my Macross SimPit

Played #XWVM (closed) Alpha with my #Macross inspired #SimPit. I’m simply in awe that I can replay missions from #XWing (or #TIEFighter) with more modern graphics and modern interface devices again. I spent _so many_ hours playing these #StarWars games as a kid.

This is the heavily cut VOD of the live stream over at @bekopharm@live.famkos.net (pick your poison):

This time I play with the native Linux version and my X52 Pro joystick (which means I actually have a chance of hitting stuff too). The following missions were played:

Historical Mission 2 / Wingmen Are Important
Historical Mission 3 / Sattelites Near Coruscant
Historical Mission 4 / Beating The Odds
OP 1: Destroy Imperial Convoy (Uncut)
OP 2: Reconnaissance Mission (Uncut)
OP 3: Fly Point During Evacuation (Uncut)
OP 4: Protect Medical Frigate (Uncut)

XWVM is not an official product from Lucasfilm Ltd. or Disney. It is not endorsed or authorized by either. It is a fan recreation of the game engine used to play X-Wing and TIE Fighter for the sake of accessibility and requires the original game assets to work.

Kudos to the XWVM team, they are doing a stellar job here.
