elite-vr-cockpit VS Sextant

For those interested I googled and found https://github.com/dantman/elite-vr-cockpit

The CPU hit is very real though, but doing a space sim... isn't that one of the moments where having a cable or not having it is when it matters least? (btw in the off chance you don't already know it... https://github.com/dantman/elite-vr-cockpit )

u/Enex description how to activate motion controls in VR with the help of u/danielfriesen's Elite VR Cockpit mod.

I'd also recommend HOTAS and Elite Dangerous, but if you just want to try it first there is a mod for Elite Dangerous that adds support for VR controllers. I don't know whether it still works well, but I have used it a lot in the past and it was surprisingly good. HOTAS is of course much better, but the virtual controls work fine and to me are much more fun than using a gamepad.

Elite: Dangerous with VR Cockpit steam overlay

Here you go.

This project might be of interest.

It's another low barrier to entry option for 'VR controls' in a cockpit settings; virtual cockpit interfaces. They are essentially a 3D overlay, where you position the controls over their in-game counterpart, and will allow you to interact with the cockpit without the VR animations. https://github.com/dantman/elite-vr-cockpit I think a similar system could work nicely if VR controls was a dev goal in the early phases.

elite-vr-cockpit Pretty awesome if you are into elite

I've spent the past day or so trying to get sextant (https://github.com/Stickymaddness/Sextant) to work with no avail, as it doesn't seem to pick up the current scan or let me know which planet to look at once I get to the desired system.

i've found it: the voice-attack plugin is called "Sextant v1.02" Google pointed me to github: https://github.com/Stickymaddness/Sextant there's both a readme and a wiki which explains how it works/ how to set up.
