New Pitool 1.0.1.180 is available now from Pimax

Pimax 8K Series
61

Hi,

I have the same issue with X-Plane 11 and 1.0.1.180.
Possibly with Elite too.

62

Price tagā€¦ and lots of videos showcsaing itā€™s compatibility with PiMax 4k, I thought it would also be compatible with 5k+

63

A lot cheaper, meanwhile itā€™s 3999 pounds lmao.
SFX-1000 is cheaper than this, and you wonā€™t risk not having a product.

64

Is that with or without lighthouses?

Just wondering if itā€™s related to the internal rotational tracking or the new motion compensationā€¦

65

Motion compensation is nothing that affects you unless you have a VR Motion Simulator. This is what ā€œMotion Compensationā€ is needed for:

Iā€™ve seen it, but on my 8K, it goes back to 80Hz. Last night (with the .144 PiTool), several settings kept getting reset, like the Parallel Projection option.

67

Iā€™ve looked at that one before. It looks like it would work very nicely with Elite Dangerous, but unfortunately, I donā€™t have the space for something like that.

68

indeed. space is not great with it! Unless you get creative and find a way of storing it out the way or outside lol :wink:

Hi,
I use one htc lighthouse only. No controllers since I fly using my yoke/joystick and pedals.

There is no problem when flying with the Condor 2 glider simulator. Maybe this has something to do with parallel projection? Condor 2 does not need it, while X-Plane 11 does.

Have the same problem with .144 Pitool - refresh rate and PP or per game settings are resetting every restart, I thought this may be something to do with the permissions on the Pitool files, but then realised that FFR settings stay.

Iā€™ll check .180 later today.

Motion compensation is used for motion platforms with LH tracking to allow rig to move without affecting tracking from my understanding.

There is a complete thread on motion compensation.

Iā€™ll check on project cars in a sec and see how it goes.

Also guys for XR oled ownersā€¦

The black level setting is in here too. Yay!

I tried pcars with parallĆØle projection and then without it. In both cases, it doesnā€™t look like an improvement. Please share your feeling about it.

Currently fixing up Pitool downloads. Is black level adjustment only present in 5kXR?

But that SFX-1000 seems to be an ordinary four actuators racing sim motion rig ? If racing sim is the only sim you want to play it may be a reasonable alternative but not if you are interested in flight sims, is it?

But at this stage of the project I would indeed wait for the FeelThree to be completed and delivered to the backers - when their feedback is positive, youā€˜ll surely be able to jump in at a cost tag not much higher than the current one, knowing itā€™s proven hardware.

If it should work out as advertised, I expect it to be a great motion rig though.

Are there beta install instructions? Specifically, I am running current RC PiTool, thus do I need to uninstall that first and then install beta, or can i simply install beta and it will overwrite automatically the RC. I see the installer does not allow you to choose where to install. please advise. thx!

Any chance of the XR true black fix!?!?

Edit: Heck yeah I see the option, its testing time!
