Accu-Feel enhances Microsoft FSX at it's core, adding dynamics and sound to all FSX aircraft (excluding helicopters). It does this through a clean, modular program that works with FSX at the core, and therefore, no Aircraft directories need to be altered in any way. The program is completely configurable via a simple in-game graphical user interface which allows each aircraft profile to be tailored and saved.

I saw this, pretty darn cool.  I'm curious if there are going to be any incompatibility issues.  I noticed a lot of people were asking about the Ezdok camera but I didn't see an answer.

How does he get the 3D gauges in default 300? Man... That would be soooo good with the NGX

Very nice, might have to look in to this some more. Any ideas on price yet and what effect it will have on performance?

For information, AccuFeel is now available for something like 15 dollars or so.
I got it as soon as I could of course. The only thing I can say about it is... wow !
That pretty much summarizes the situation.

I made some test flights both with freeware and payware planes (non-Accusim), but mostly with freeware planes. Honnestly, the level of immersion is radically changed. I tried it first with the Meyers 200D from Tim Conrad, and this plane has been taken into a whole new dimension. These sounds and shakes produced by the AccuFeel module where changing the way the flight was perceived from the cockpit. You get more... how to say it.... aware... something like this. It's like your flying environment suddently gets some "consistency".

Those who own the Accusim P-40 might know what I'm talking about. Even though I was piloting a freeware plane, I was getting similar sounds on ground and in the air than I got with the P-40, that was great.

The module is fully adjustable. Some default values are computed for each plane according to what is written in the aircraft.cfg, and then you get sliders for each effect to adjust its intensity to your taste. It's really easy to use.

Now I am "rediscovering" each of my freeware planes in my hangar.

I bought AccuFeel this evening and so far I'm impressed!

I took the F1 Mustang from St Moritz in the Alps back to my home town Manchester in the U.K and to be honest at first I didn't really notice anything different, but I think that is because the Mustang is such an excellently models aircraft anyway it's hard to improve on.

All that changed though when I touched down!
Instantly the nice glass smooth runways of FSX were out of the window.
I touched down nice and softly *being the pro I am  Tongue* and was thrown into a world where the runway was very very very far from smooth!  The aircraft was bouncing and shuddering and for the first time ever in FSX I thought....Bloody 'ell I'm going fast! And I was only doing 90knots at touch down!


One great feature is that you can really hear and feel the moment you touch the ground whereas a lot of the time in you're left guessing as to whether your on the ground or floating just above it.and then the jolts and bouncing and noises as you decelerate are amazing!

It really wasn't very far off what I've seen from real world cockpit videos which is awesome!

So far I 100% recommend it and I can only imagine that recommendation will go up!
