alt.binaries.simulators.autos.

Sorry folks, don't have space to put these up on web :(

The problem is that noone has ever done a decent control system for a bike
sim. It doesn't matter how pretty it looks if it feels wrong then it just
won't work.

By control system I think Andrew meant controller.
I have the same problem, I don't like handheld gamepads.
For race car sims, it's OK as the wheel works fine.
But nobody has come up with a solid bike bars, throttle and brakes.
And trying to come up with a home controller ca[able of allowing the rider
to counter-steer will always be a 'challenge'.

I preferred GP500 over SBK on the PC.
Not raced much bike sims since then, but I'm a die-hard TT fan, so you can
guess my next one :)

Sega seemed to have it down pretty well when Hang On and Super Hang On
were out in the arcades. I don't think the problem is creating a good
motorcycle peripheral (as it has been done many many times over the
years) but rather that it's not economically feasible. I can't
imagine there would be a market for it.

Exactly, along side my FQ300 sits a shiny ZX9R and you don't steer it, you
lean it. We need, as has already been mentioned in this thread, an arcade
styule sit upon bike to lean with.

This is rec.autos.simulators if you hadn't noticed and not
i.am.a.spelling.snob

It was a 'typo' anyway.
