PythonOne Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Could anyone explain the program touch buddy to me? Like what does it do and how does it work. I heard you need one of those touch lcd screens, where can i find one of those. And the cheaper the better :smilewink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSR-SARGE Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 TouchBut I can fly without TB as well as I can fly without TrackIR or a jo your buddy Rugg Said("But I can fly without TB as well as I can fly without TrackIR or a joystick. ;) It's that good") I bet you could fly good blindfolded also!!!!!!!!! 3Sqn_SARGE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild.Bill.Kelso Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Could anyone explain the program touch buddy to me? Like what does it do and how does it work. Most TB questions can be answered in the Master FAQ. And like Rugg said, you don't 'need' a touchscreen, you can use your mouse. But it is very cool to just touch with your finger on a touchscreen. :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prophet Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 But as cool as BS will be with a touchscreen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild.Bill.Kelso Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Technically, I think that is classified as 'Way' Cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thereminqblank Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 I dream for a day when we will be able to add a touch screen overlay to our existing monitors, look around the cockpit with the TrackIR and flick switches and press buttons in the pit.

Ooooh yeeeahhh....You can do that today. Several users are using Touchscreen overlays (including Rugg) for their touchbuddy monitors. But I don't see any reason you can't put it over your game monitor and touch it. Here are some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zorlac Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 BS will be complicated, somebody start work on a profile already:lol: Some beta testers who run TB already have (aparantly) but as they are covered by their non-disclosure agreement, they cant show me any of it. One day i`ll get to fly in Black Shark.... one day REALLY soon I hope.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuky Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 I am thinking having the main monitor as a touch screen and being able to toggle all cockpit switches by touchbuddy would indeed be very nice, but then I think there would be a "problem" of hundreds of finger prints on the monitor... and man do I hate those :D No longer active in DCS...

Considering what you have done for the community by developing TouchBuddy (and what's even more: for free) you oughta get a copy of Black Shark from ED for free. And meanwhile ED and all beta testers should give you any beta versions and support you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
