Looks very nice!  ;D

Shame he's only targeting the French market though.... Thought he'd have at least an International-Language version of the website.  ::)

I have been in touch with them too for a while, a guy asked a ton of questions on how to make plugin stuff work (and offered the chance to go to their place to help out, has to decline, no time for that at the time)
.
From the questions I'm not sure about how much of gpb/input methods/control they actually knew but they havethe system up and running so I guess it's fine.

so that's the one with separate steering AND lean axis?

No, lean axis is not an input, it's just an output (i.e. GPB "drives" the lean axis).

There's no such a thing as a steer input + (bike) lean input: it makes no sense.

Mah... Steering input + lean input, we have that on our gamepad already, no ? I mean, biker lean

Also, I'm just wondering... I think that this company is running the demo only. But anyway, is that legal to use GPBike for commercial use without any promotion or any mention of that ??

On gamepad you have bike lean (actually target bike lean) + rider lean.
If you use direct steer you have steering (angle or torque) + rider lean.

You can't have bike lean + steering. On a real bike you have steering (torque) + rider lean (not bike lean, as many think).

Fancy that, a full motion simulator that works... despite being told over and over and over and over that it's a danger, and it doesn't work, and it's been tried.... fuck sake.  ::)



Back to lurking again.  :-X

Of course but as far as I can tell, that would be the first controller with both axis present.
