Oh yes, I'd forgotten about them! Special Effect, they did quite a lot with Elite Dangerous for Frontier Developments a while back: https://www.specialeffect.org.uk/Wasn’t there a charity out there that helped less able gamers?
There was also a member who was maybe paralysed from the neck down who had something similar and was better than me at all the games I saw him play
It's quite early in development so really anything could change. It's going to have a few gyros in it for very precise mouse emulation and a thumb stick, so you have wasd and mouse sorted in one hand.
yes, I've already been through them, they gave me a razer mouse that had a lot of buttons that had zero tactile feedback to diffentiate between them all, and it broke a couple of months later, the great thing about it was the mousewheel could be tilted left and right to give an extra two easy buttons , I had to replace it, but that version of the mouse was no longer available, so I had to give up the cool left/right wheel mouse buttons, and just be left with a bunch of unidentifiable buttons on the side!Wasn’t there a charity out there that helped less able gamers?

When you are messing around with Elite controls there are options for overrides (Flight landing overrides and alternate flight controls in the menu) which should make mapping controls a lot easier as you can shift the entire functionality of the stick with a single button, so for instance you can swap the stick from pitch/roll to strafe left/right/up/down.
Thanks, me too!Hopefully your new set up works well though!
It's cool, it's notl ike they can work miracles
yes, that is something that I have considered a lot for my right foot, it's just that the three main makes for that always seem to be out of stock, and we are looking at pedals really, nobody has come up with a proper foot controller like you have though of i it's been a while since I looked again, but they are all out of stock, so thank you for reminding me to keep awatch on those, and for making me look for some alternatives, I think that I could get along with this okay,
it's definately my light up keyboard hogging power on the same USB host, I had to have mum try multiple ports to get all my devices working without cutting the power to the tobii, but now, my lighted mouse mat, lighted keyboard, and lighted mouse are all on and glowing with the tobii working at the same time, I think the tobii eas not expecting to be on a usb controller that had so much power being sucked up, that's all I did, was unplug the lighted keyboard and the thing got recognised, go figure
If the steam version launches the Frontier launcher all you need to do it hit the 'Versions' button at the bottom left side and pick which version you want to play. When you start there is a section titled training when you pick open, private, solo etc that has all the training missions available.
I want to get elite working with it for the immersion factor, I've always been a fan of space stuff and I played the original OG elite for many hours back in the day, on BBC, C64, and amiga, even elite frontier on the amiga too,
wish, i'd have asked now before deleting it, gonna have to go to bed while it all downloads again, do you mind if I DM you in the future about the game if I ever need some advice, I promise not to plague you with questions!?
Feel free to do so, there is a dedicated Elite Dangerous thread which is full of very helpful people as well
