Snowcat Simulator (Realistic Controls)

Snowcat Simulator (Realistic Controls)

Postby Skier1900 on 25 Nov 2011, 10:18

Hi Guys,
First off let me state that grooming has got to be one heck of a cool job! I am interested in using a simulator to accurately, or at least somewhat accurately represent the controls of a cat. I have a left over joystick and large throttle from flight simulation. Each of these has their main axes along with multiple sliders, buttons, and 8-way switches. I could also possibly find a steering wheel and/or pedals if this is needed. I am looking for a basic run down of the controls in a Pistenbully or possibly a Prinoth. I have found some good videos online, but they all are in German...
Thanks for any help,
Jack

If you mean Snowcat Simulator the simulation of the cat is not very accurate. I have to say it is terrible! So realistic controls are about nothing.

Thanks for the reply,
I realize that whatever platform I use, Ski Region/Snow Cat simulator, being one possibility, is not going to be very good. I am hoping to have realistic physical controls to make it seem at least real functionally even if the simulator is a long ways from realistic, if you get what I mean.
