Absolutely. My writing position has my wrists about 4 inches above my legs. And my elbows are supported by the arm rests on the chair and my wrists by a gel pad.

This graphic actually implies that the ideal is even lower..and that the keyboard should be tilted away from you (mine is dead level)..



:shrug: Best solution is to just get a proper simming chair..

That is Diveplane's NVG mod - available HERE!

Thank you, sir! That's the one I have installed. Weird, mine appears significantly more grainy, in-game. Resolution is 1440.

Its a nice mod; I was just admiring how clear it looks in your screenies.

You basically get the same effect without a tray when you raise your chair enough, but to each his own, I guess.

(Also sitting rather uncomfortably after a while has the advantage of taking breaks more often - except when you're so immersed that nothing can pull you away.)
