No problem :)

Hi, the levels that are made in the level editor (including the DLC levels) are fully compatible between the desktop and android version. 

However, the levels on the main screen of the PC version (the desert, forest, factory etc..) are not made in the level editor, and can't be transferred to the android version.

The level editor is only available in FPV Freerider Recharged:

https://fpv-freerider.itch.io/fpv-freerider-recharged

Sorry for the confusion, if you send an email to fpvfreerider@gmail.com I can help you solve it.

Thanks! It uses the Unity engine.

Good day, thank you for the suggestion. I will consider it. Perhaps you are sitting on a formula on how the actual rates are implemented?

(Generally speaking, I'm personally not super into chasing the latest trends. To make a car analogy - I'm generally more excited by some beat up 70s stick shift Camaro thrashing around the backyard, compared to some shiny new model with all the latest bells and whistles).

Glad to hear that you managed to find the solution! Thanks for reporting back.
(As far as I know, there are no command line parameters or similar that can be used to display fps in a Unity build)

FPV Freerider uses Unity Playerprefs to store the custom settings. 

On Linux, PlayerPrefs can be found in ~/.config/unity3d/[CompanyName]/[ProductName]

It should be something like ~/.config/unity3d/Freeride/FPVFreeriderRecharged

Perhaps there is some permissions issue. I'm not a linux user myself though, so I'm not going to be of much help with linux stuff. Please note that the linux version is experimental and may not work on all distributions.

Thank you for reporting. Hopefully some Linux savvy user might be able to chime in. I'm not a Linux user myself. Please note that the Linux version is experimental and may not work on all Linux distributions. To those who still wish to try it, I recommend first trying the free demo version. 
Glad to hear that it's working fine in Wine.

The chmod +x command adds execute permissions to the specified file, allowing it to be run as a program. It usually works to get Freerider running on a Mac. Make sure you enter the correct folder path and app name (where the app is located on your computer).

There is a detailed description on how to use it on page 16 of the user manual.

(If you still can't get it working please get back with more info on what happens when you try to run it).

Thank you for your interest. For new maps I would recommend FPV Freerider Recharged.

As you may know, Recharged has the full level editor included. That makes it possible to create your own levels from scratch, or download levels that other users have created and made publicly available. (Such as here for example)

You can also simply edit already existing levels - add and remove stuff - which is quite easy and can be a lot of fun.

(The only updates that are planned at the moment are necessary ones).

Thanks for reporting, glad you got it working on your setup!

(Yes, it is necessary to change the execute flag as described in the download info /manual, since newer versions of MacOS is picky about running unofficial apps) 

Yes, to others who might wonder the same - 

It is possible to choose line-of-sight view and perform nose in hover, watching the quadcopter as if you are standing in front of it.

Here's a more detailed explanation -

First, download the zip file for the DLC maps. Unzip it.

You should then have a number of folders, called 

Freerider_Big_Hollow_Bando

Freerider_Fifty_Fifty

Freerider_MultiGP_Regionals2018

Freerider_MultiGP_UTT1

etc.

Copy those unzipped map folders to the correct folder on your android device.

It's usually:

/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.Freeride.FreeriderRecharged/files/

or

Internal Storage/Android/Data/com.Freeride.FreeriderRecharged/files/

If you are uncertain of the folder location, save any level (even an empty one) in the Level Editor of Freerider, and take a note of the full folder path that is displayed after saving is complete.

You may need to use a good file manager (such as Solid Explorer for example) to copy the maps to the correct folder.

(Some phones are deliberately blocking the owner from accessing certain folders, but you may get around that by using a third party file manager).

Hope that helps, let me know if you have more questions or need more detailed instructions for some part!

Thank you for your feedback, I can see that it would be useful and will consider it for future updates.

Thank you, I'm happy to hear that you like it!

Hello, Yes, please send an email to fpvfreerider@gmail.com and I will provide a solution.

Thanks for reporting back. That is strange indeed, I don't know what is causing that. It would be interesting to hear if you manage to see some kind of pattern to when or why it is happening. Also, if you have the Steam client installed, I could send a download key for the Steam version for you, so that you can try if that works better on your machine.

Generally speaking, if a controller can be recognized as a joystick by the operating system there's a good chance that it can be used with FPV Freerider.

However, I have heard reports from many people that the betafpv literadio2 does not support joystick emulation on Android. (I do believe it works in Windows though).

Since it is not recognized correctly by the operating system there is nothing I can do about it unfortunately.

Hello, maybe something went wrong during installation. I would try to download the zip file again, and perhaps unzip it with another unpacking software (such as Keka for example).

If it still doesn't work you could try to find the output log file and check that for clues. On Mac, I think it's usually in ~/Library/Logs/Unity/Player.log

(Or, send the log to fpvfreerider@gmail.com and I will have a look at it and see if I can figure out what it might be).

Thank you for sharing!

I will put a link to your project in the user manual if that's OK with you.

Thank you for sharing!

Thanks for reporting, I'm glad to hear that is works after updating!

Hello, thank you for your message. I understand the problem. However, the Android version is only available on the Google Play store at the time of this writing, and that is unlikely to change.

Yes, they can be used on both the desktop (Windows/Mac/Linux), as well as the Android version of FPV Freerider Recharged.

First download the levels to your computer.

Then you need to put them in your FPV Freerider Recharged data folder. The levels need to be in the correct folder in order for Freerider to find them. The data folder is named as followed:

Windows:

FPVFreerider_Recharged_Data

MacOS:

FPVFreerider_Recharged.app/Contents

(If you are uncertain of the folder location, save any level (even an empty one) in the level editor and take a note of the full folder path that is displayed after saving is complete).

Note: The name of the custom level .txt file needs to be the same as it's folder name for it to be recognized.

You can find this and more info in the user manual.

When you download the simulator here on Itch you will receive a zip file.

On Windows, you unzip that file to a folder of your choice.

In that folder, you will then find a FPVFreerider.exe file, which is the executable.

You will also find the user manual, as well as the FPVFreerider_Data folder, in the same place.

Usually you don't need to do anything with the data folder.

The FPVFreerider_Data is a folder that contains the necessary files for the simulator. 

You can find more general information in the user manual.

Thank you for reporting, glad to hear that it's working fine on Windows at least.

Thank you for reporting.

See if you can find the output log file. On Mac, I believe it should be located at:

~/Library/Logs/Unity/Player.log

If you manage to find it, please send it to fpvfreerider@gmail.com and I will have a look and try to see if I can figure out what might be the cause.

Thanks for the feedback! Sure, I can try to it a bit more clear in the user manual, regarding the level loading.

Glad you managed to solve it!

You can find info on this and other useful things in the user manual.

Yes, you can email fpvfreerider@gmail.com

I tried your settings and I think you got it dialed in pretty good in order to get it to behave similarly to a slow moving DJI style drone.

As you say, of course you will still have the spring loaded throttle issue, but I think it will be good enough for practice anyway.

If you stick with it, I think that soon you will get the hang of it and you will be able to keep it at a pretty stable altitude without much effort.

(I don't think setting the gravity to 0 would be very beneficial, since you wouldn't be able to get down at all) 

Yes, a different settings tab would probably be necessary, but there are also quite a lot of other changes that would need to be made to the existing code/design, and things to consider. 

Anyway, I will keep your feedback in mind, and consider your suggestions for the future.

Thank you for the feedback!

Yes, FPV Freerider is mainly designed to simulate racequads/freestyle drones. That is, quadcopters that flown mainly using (more or less) fully manual controls, and which are used mainly for high speed racing and/or acrobatic flight.

I agree that it might be a good idea to add an option for DJI style cinematic type drones too. However, since that is quite a different type of flying, I fear that it might make the user interface too cluttered with different settings etc. Perhaps it would instead be best to make a whole separate simulator, that is designed specifically for that type of drones.

To get as close as possible to the behavior of a DJI style drone using Freerider as it is now, I would recommend flying with self-leveling turned on, and a slow rate settings such as the "sluggish" preset.

The advantage is, if you get good at flying in Freerider, you might find that flying a more automatic drone such as the DJI will later feel like a breeze!

Hi,

The X/D switch switches between different input mode for Windows - Xinput and Directinput.

I think it is generally recommended to set it to the "X" position, since that is the newer standard.

My recommendation would be to try that, and if it for some reason doesn't work as expected - try the other mode.

Keep an eye on the little circles as you go through the Calibrate Controller procedure in Freerider. You should be able to move some of the little circles smoothly up and down using the analog sticks.

There is more general information in the user manual.

Hi, dev here. It's best to just download the latest build.

(The old build is just kept for safety, in case there would be some unexpected bug in the latest update. But now that you mention it, the latest build has now been up long enough to know that it's stable, so I will just remove the old build).
