These are the best gaming setups from the Battestations subreddit for all of 2022! Check out the Corsair Xeneon Flex: www.corsair.com/us/en/Categor... ►Want to submit your desk setup? Watch this video: bit.ly/3gs57Eh 🔥 TS Mousepads:
Do you have to micro calibrate everything to make sure that the controls are exactly where they should be on the VR headset vs IRL? I feel like if the VR is just slightly off it would make trying to touch the physical controls very awkard
@@B1SQ1T Yes, the distance and positioning must pretty much match up. You can do some adjustments with VR headset positioning in the game too with some adjustments. typically just get it close as you can and then adjust in game positioning in the virtual seat and head position.
Those flight setups are almost ALL playing DCS flight sim. And as noted, those controls almost ALL work. Some may not be implemented to users' choice yet. But, most will set up the buttons to be as close to the real-life setup of the original jets. Lots of FA/18, and F-16 do use different flight sticks technically and YES, so will swap out the very costly sticks too!
Pls make this a series. That subreddit is just a goldmine of some of the best and most unique/creative setups I've seen. Stuff that you wouldn't generally cover. Maybe one video monthly for the most upvoted posts of that month
nice try boyo, you're probably sitting on a windows xp Dell from 2002 on a kitchen table with a white microsoft laser mouse and Creative 2.1 speakers. stop larping, you know I'm right
I swear, I posted my setup 7 days ago from today on the Battlestations subreddit and was both excited yet terrified that you might come across it since it was posted a day before this video came out. Though I can say that I'm always watching your videos and checking out the subreddit to make inprovements and new additions every now and then. You more than anyone have helped me the most through my setup build and even building my first pc 2 years ago and I want to provide a great thanks!
The VR setup at the beginning is fully functional. The consoles are mapped 1:1 so what you see in VR will be the approximate location of the actual buttons. When mixed reality becomes more advanced we will see huge improvements in the physical assets to improve the VR experience.
Thanks for being such a consistent and great youtuber. I love your videos and they motivated me to build my own custom pc packed with a humble i5 13600k and an Asus Tuf RTX 3070. Thank you so much for your great content and keep it up.
these are cool, I like the reaction part which is somewhat hilarious, and the creativity part that inspire us to tweak a little our own setups, thanks a lot Edgar, I love your content... I'm finishing my own setup so I can send it to Setup Wars. and BTW in the monitor-less sim rig, if you watch closely, you can see that the buttons are functional but there are no screens on the panels, so you can touch the buttons, but the screen interaction is through the VR goggles...
Ed, thanks again for another great video! 😊 That cabin in the middle of the woods is amazing 🤩 but not the set up itself. I can understand why people voted for this setup which is only because of the cozy mood it gives. I can see myself living at this cabin, drinking coffee and watching movies but I would definitely do something different with the set up otherwise it just doesn’t go along with the overall theme.
5:48 "Do what you have to do until you can do what you want to do." It's actually not just "Follow your dreams". It emphasizes the responsibility aspect involved in pursuing a passion.
The 2nd to last setup is probably one of my favorites. Especially if they bottom monitor would have been touch screen, and a higher end PC. I think I would have also gone with a deeper desk as well to open it up a bit more.
The flight sim setup is built for DCS (Digital Combat Sim) and is an exact replica of a F-18 Super Hornet. It is scaled so that when you use controls in real life they respond in vr and it tracks where your hands are moving so you can see what controls you are activating instead of just guessing.
Love the channel. Definitely inspired by all the clean set ups, and making changes to my gaming set up with all the recommendations you give. I also ordered one of your awesome mouse pads a few weeks ago to replace my huge 48x24 mouse pad, but it hasn't arrived in the mail. Any idea why it's taking long to get here? Thanks for all you do my guy!
Flight simmer, here. Yes, people who have VR setups like to have physical buttons, often laid out 1:1 of their favorite aircraft to get full immersion. In something like DCS World, non-VR users use the mouse to click as many buttons in the virtual cockpit as programmed or program whatever buttons they want to either their joystick, throttle, or some other button box. The guy @ 2:45 has his gear with an F/A-18 Hornet layout, with three MFD's (multi-function displays) and Hornet joystick. You can even see the MFD's have a screen in them to use without VR. Looks like a Thrustmaster Warthog (A-10 Warthog) throttle. Pretty expensive collection of flight gear. The base/frame/chair alone is probably $1,000.
I have a flight sim setup but not with VR or advanced controls like that, you can actually interact with the external controls, buttons and levers so that its a much more realistic flying experiance in addition with VR
I have a balcony setup like 14:41. When it rains or you go to sleep you just put a plastic cover over it. There is a balcony on top of it, so only shear winds will push rain into the setup. Thats easy to handle. You also see that there is nothing on the ground that gets in trouble with standing water. I put my computer iMac (with 2 Thunderboldt Displays) inside only when we have a strong storm warning. I love to be in nature when working. Especially the smell of the fir trees should be great and inspiring
sweet series loved all these set ups - the cabin setup was the best 10/10 - as someone who does music production for a hobby and loves the mountains i totally get that setup, although the red gaming chair was a bit unique :P
In regards to the TV Station set up at 9 minutes, that's quite a normal amount of monitors for a broadcast production space and I would assume is operated by 1-3 people. My work is very similar, and yes, your eyes get very tired after 8 hours in those rooms.
That flight sim for vr near the beginning is likely for DCS. They remake the cockpit as in game you can push all the buttons in the cockpit. It's pretty sweet. This way what you see in vr is also right in front of you. It's a labour of love
8:26 I work at a news station as a photog/editor and I can vouch that our directors have the same setup in the booth and routinely do this with just two eyes. It's fun to watch them work. Same with our master control engineer who monitors all of our channels our network is responsible for in our local area.
For the news station work space, there are several people uses and looks at those monitors. It's usually the Director and CG operator that are up front monitoring what's going on program. Seems like the audio booth isn't even on that photo which is a 3rd person to monitor what's going over program.
“Do what you have to do until you can do what you want to do” And the cockpit setup; think of it a little like this the real world controls are mirrored in VR, it’s an advanced version of showing your Oculus 2 where your couch is, but you get see the cushions compress when you sit down wearing VR
the flight sim has 1:1 controls based of the F-18 Hornet, you can actually press them since DCS (the game) has realistic controls that sometimes need to be pressed shortly after eachother, it just makes it more realistic
8:30 yea thats like a standard for most media productions home centers, i went to college and used my internship at a place in tampa and we had 21 monitors and i was responsible for odds, and the head tech has evens. they were all numbered based on a geo/time references. i wld go home with what i called blue screen headaches. fun job tho and great for multitaskers.
lots of great setups but the ones that do it for the clicks such as the one on the balcony turn me off. The CoD theme at 12:00 was pretty cool. Glad I found your channel, new sub!
We have a similar setup up like the News Station layout. I can tell you 1 person can totally control and monitor all those displays. Sadly as we don't play out from our station anymore we have 1 room full of monitors just sitting idle and the other dedicated to our security cameras network.
Ed we as sim racers use vr on the sim as the wheel gives a realistic feel to what we are looking at through the vr making it more immersive and realistic
