The Novint Falcon & i37 Week

[Chalex4]

Darkeagle please keep yourself on-topic. These came from LA in the US on a priority delivery so of course it's going to be bloody expensive.

Yeah VH, the "Gamers Paradise" area is the LAN itself but you can enter as a spectator if we say we know you.

[Darkeagle]

ok im just saying, could of hired a mexican drug mule to deliver it cheaper

[Vicious Horizon]

Alright, thankyou Chalex.

BACK ON TOPIC.

[Chalex4]

I'm sure you could have, but they wouldn't have arrived over a week before i37 lol .

EDIT: I'm packing up the car now for i37 and will be going straight from cooking to the LAN. See you there!

CS3 can use 3D objects as well Vox, but I doubt the Falcon would work with it since you can't use it like a normal mouse on your desktop.

Worth a try though.

[Chalex4]

Novint have said they're going to make the Falcon work as a pointing device on Windows, it's just a matter of time.

They're also going to make it work with many more applications and games like Counter-Strike: Source in the very near future which will be amazing.

[VoX]

So what games does it actually work on now?

[Chazlene]

So far Vox the Novint only works with the games in the Orange Box.

Funniest thing youve said in a while

The orange box is only in beta stage anyway with the novint

[Chalex4]

That's not true Chazlene, it works on many more games than just the orange box stuff. Look at THIS PAGE to see all the details, but from a quick look it works with this as well:

• Quake 4
• Quake Wars
• F.E.A.R.
• F.E.A.R Combat (multiplayer)
• Crysis
• Prey
• Doom 3

so it works for the orange box, and a bunch of games no one acctually plays consistently?

Ah, my bad... I got the impression from the article I read that it only works with the Orange Box.

[Chalex4]

Look on their forum here:

http://home.novint.com/community/phorum/list.php?4

It's very easy to see that they are trying to do every game they can, and I reckon we'll see support for many more popular games like COD4, CSS and BF2 before the end of the month.

[Target]

CoD4 woot, but does anyone in the community constantly play 1 fps DK, I mean even TF2 is a pretty occasional event

[Calneon]

£25, apparantly.

I'm guessing "Gamer's Paradise" is the actual LAN event?

It's the hall where all the PCs are I think. The other place is the exhibition area or something.

EDIT: Don't you hate it when you reply to the last post on a page then realise after you posted it that there is another almost full page afterwards?
