    Thank you Thank you Thank you. Just spent about 2 hours on EDH. What an incredible game it is. Crazy complex, but also easy to get involved.

    I kept wondering why when I pressed "J" the "Friendship Drive" was charged.... Realised she is saying FRAME SHIFT after about an hour!

    Can't wait to try Rift on this.. Just Wow!

    The game is just spectacular in VR probably one of the most immerse. I just wish I had more time to play as you need a couple of hours at least to get going properly.

    It's an unbelievable great combination, Elite dangerous the oculus rift, a 6DOF motion seat and last but not least the great SimTools package hug:

    wow did not know this game was available to get motion!!! i usually use simcomander and i must admit that it lacks soooooo many games.... i feel i am leaning more to simtools if i can set it up to work properly (not tried yet).

    Hello and thank you very much SilentChill for keeping Elite plugin up to date! It's been awhile and I'm a bit rusty and was wondering if someone could help me...

    Game manager crashes every time when I start Elite Dangerous Horizons. I use Steam version if that matters. Motion works when testing in Game Engine. Currently Elite is only game I can test, so problem might not be just Elite related... I'm using win 10.

    Still struggling with this. I reinstalled Simtools, still no go. I noticed that seat comes alive and moves from it's resting position when game starts and Game manager goes "blue" and says game running, but then instantly manager crashes. :(

    @Scratch have you got the wow64 dll and baseaddress dll copied into your simtools folder ? Also run gamemanager and gameengine as administrator for patching and basically all the time

    @SilentChill @value1 Is the upload issue still persistant? I can not test it. Even the administrator can not update a resource. Is it useful to create a changelog file with a version number within the zip package? So we are able to check if the file was updated successfully.

    We need to sit the developers in a motion sim to show them how awesome it is with motion so that they stop messing with the damn pointers.

    Now I'm in VR, I can't play it without movement or I want to vomit. :p

    Actual telemetry would be awesome...but likely a pipe dream.
