Star Wars: X-Wing Collectors Series with XWVM alpha

Played #XWVM (closed) Alpha with my ViperPit and with #XR glasses. I’m simply in awe that I can replay missions from #XWing (or #TIEFighter) with more modern graphics and modern interface devices again. I spent _so many_ hours playing this as a kid.

This is the heavily cut VOD of the live stream over at live.famkos.net (pick your poison):

I go over the input settings and show it’s capabilities to connected various joystick devices, demo the Proofing Grounds and showcase mission 1+2. In the end I go over various settings for the XWVM engine and how the machine hardly sweats displaying the gorgeous cockpit.

XWVM is not an official product from Lucasfilm Ltd. or Disney. It is not endorsed or authorized by either. It is a fan recreation of the game engine used to play X-Wing and TIE Fighter for the sake of accessibility and requires the original game assets to work.

The game was played with #Viture Pro XR running in Side-By-Side mode thanks to ReShade on a Linux PC.

Kudos to the XWVM team, they are doing a stellar job here.

why even buy AAA games of dubious value anymore when you can get a 25 year old title that modders have turned into something this awesome? #StarWarsXWingAlliance #VideoGames #Mods #Modding #Gaming #Games #StarWars #XWing

What? I have to talk about myself and write an #introduction?

I'm a programmer with pretensions to being a software engineer. I work on web stuff for a UK market research company on the #dotnet stack (plus associated stuff like Typescript and Azure). I also help organise the DDD East Anglia conference.

I play the #XWing miniatures game, and currently running a side project to build a site for running tournaments.
