SH5 Simulator

[longam]

I'm thinking of some ways to bring more immersion into the game.

One thought was to hook up misters on my monitor that spray when I'm surfaced. The only problem would be the keyboard!

Another would be a take off from some fighter flight chairs I have seen with sub woofers, but I would use an I/O controllers (PLC maybe) and some actuators to rock it back and forth with the wave action.

Of course having the red-blue-white lights for environment is a must.

Now with the surface conditions covered we need some underwater stimulus, any thoughts?

I should get a small lawnmower engine that sits next to me to simulate the engine room. Just have to pipe all the exhaust outside!

not all the exhaust, you want realism so you need a little loose exhaust in the boat

i find a metal garbage can does nicely to simulate the muffled sounds around you but beware the wife with the stirring spoon, if shes in the area you can suffere hearing damage and headaches lol

Ha, more like $100,000 (one hundred thousand).

I too wish for a more realistic setting than my bedroom while I play
