Played XWVM (closed) Alpha with my ViperPit and with XR glasses. I’m simply in awe that I can replay missions from XWing (or TIEFighter) with more modern graphics and modern interface devices again. I spent so many hours playing this as a kid.

This is the heavily cut VOD of the live stream over at https://live.famkos.net/ (pick your poison):

I go over the input settings and show it’s capabilities to connected various joystick devices, demo the Proofing Grounds and showcase mission 1+2. In the end I go over various settings for the XWVM engine and how the machine hardly sweats displaying the gorgeous cockpit.

XWVM is not an official product from Lucasfilm Ltd. or Disney. It is not endorsed or authorized by either. It is a fan recreation of the game engine used to play X-Wing and TIE Fighter for the sake of accessibility and requires the original game assets to work.

The game was played with Viture Pro XR running in Side-By-Side mode thanks to ReShade on a Linux PC.

Kudos to the XWVM team, they are doing a stellar job here.
