Can anyone explain in simpler terms how to get the DCS telemetry ffbs effects working? I have no idea how this python stuff works....
WI'll make an executable later, but to get it running directly from source you need to install Python3 and Git. Open a powershell window and copy paste the instructions 
ROk. Have Python3 installed but not Git. I'd say thats my issue..
Dhurry up and git it
Agit is bae
R@walmis keep getting this when I copy and paste 'pip install -r requirements.txt'
RDisregard. Python not installed correctly
MDoes the mirage f1 feel a bit soggy after the update to others?
RWhich aircraft are supported?
RI have it running but must be missing something.. the small DCS telemetry window is saying its waiting for telemetry...
R(This is with the F/A-18C)
WShould work on all of them. Could you check if the Export.lua and TelemFFB.lua installed correctly in your c/users/you/Saved Games/DCS/Scripts dir?
WAlso dcs.log might give some clues if script has errored out
RI was in a hurry and hadn't really troubleshooted yet. Maybe it lua files didn't go to correct location. Will check soon.
RMy installation is DCS.Openbeta - so it installed wrong location.
Works now. Incredible potentional here @walmis . Loved the feel of the effects. Even if not quite realistic, it certainly felt natural.
Didn't feel any ground roll/touchdown effects with F/A-18C though? I thought those effects applied to all aircraft by default? Also couldn't feel weapon release..

WDo you have WeightOnWheels data coming?
RFrom memory, I think so. Does it come through as a decimal value? 0 - 1.0? I think I saw 0.81 on ground..
Wyeah, try the TF-51 it should definitely have the rolling rumble
RCan it be manually added for the F/A-18C through the ini?
Wyeah, but rolling effect should be [default]
WDoes the BRRRT work though? 
RIt does, but its hardly noticeable.. very faint. Adjusted the ini from 0.12 to 0.32 and didn't make much difference..
WWhat's the Periodic effects and Constant effect strength in Rhino GUI ?
RMaybe that's it. I'm running 50% periodic...
RConstant effect I think is 0%.
WI tested periodic 50% and constant 100%
WThe rolling effects use Constant, so that maybe it
V:package: RHINO #0038 Has Shipped!
JIt is getting closer, I feel it
SHi there,
I was wondering if the base is producing a lot of vibrations when running.
Thanks

WHi, depends on the effects. It can shake the stick quite a lot for AoA buffeting for example
Wbut for simple spring/damper it's smooth and silent
SCopy, thanks !
Swhy is this app even needed? My stick vibrates at stall speed in a mossie. But I did notice it is pretty lame when flying the Dora
WIt augments the effects, some modules are pretty lacking on that front.
RIs that 100% in both the effects and settings tabs?
Wonly in settings
ADoes anyone have the button mapping for the Hotas Warthog Stick?
AAnd would kindly make it available to me.

BHello,
I have a question about force feedback in general.
I thought the introduction of XINPUT (in 2005) (instead of directinput) killed FFB.
Because according to the documentation:(https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/xinput/ns-xinput-xinput_capabilities) : "Note that these force-feedback features beyond rumble are not currently supported through XINPUT on Windows."
Only rumble is not really force feedback (I think anyway).
So I thought no more FFB joysticks would be made, because (as I understood) games that want to offer force feedback couldn't use Xinput but had to use the old directinput. (unless they just wanted to to rumble, then you can use xinput)
But am I wrong about this?
Where am I wrong? Do new flight sims still support force feedback? And how do they do this? (And why are they doing this?)

Describes the capabilities of a connected controller. The XInputGetCapabilities function returns XINPUT_CAPABILITIES.
S18 more to go, i can taaaste it
JThere is quite a bit of info related to your question already posted. Suggest you start at the top and have a good read here, support, suggestions and showcase. We don't need Walmis distracted he has hundreds of FFB joysticks to make. Lol
BYes found a lot thanks! To sum it up; if you want real FFB the game needs to implement directinput or an abstraction of directinput like libSDL or a plugin like xpforce (which then handles directinput)
PIf only everyone could be bothered to implement the full potential from a FFB stick, there sadly seems a general ignorance to the purpose of the FFB beyond being a gimicky stick shaker, as evidenced in a couple of developer forums on DCS in previous conversations I have had about implementation, some flat out can't be bothered at all.
SOk so i need to run a python script before dcs. Thats it?!
SThe dora is pretty lame but then again its an older module
SHow impactful have the 30 people with this ffb stick found the python script to be?
SDo we need a separate channel to focus the discussion?
