I agree with Michael though that whatever we do with respect to providing motion queues through the visual system should be user selectable. Any time your eyes (visuals) disagree with your butt (motion) you risk getting the user sick. Some people are a lot more sensitive to this than others. Peo

Just to add my two cents, the eyepoint motion sounds like an interesting way to add some cues to make up for the cues missing in a motionless sim. Only small movement in the x and y planes would suffice to provide the cues. There is some movement in the z axis, mainly from the springiness of t
