but interestingly enough, if I'm using differential braking (soviet style) - even though it might slow me down as much, if I have a pedal pressed the effect goes away entirely
For the first issue you could try setting runway_rumble_intensityrunway_rumble_intensity to 0 The braking effect is deceleration_effect_enabledeceleration_effect_enable and deceleration_max_forcedeceleration_max_force it based on longitudinal G force telemetry
gotcha. to the second point, that would also explain why if I pulled my stick back hard and let the Gs come on then released my stick it would shoot forward (well past the center point). Correct?
I'll play around with it. Thank you Last question - It is normal to have my stick have a very light autocentering when having no loading on my elevator, right? When I stall out in a jet or I am on the ground, the stick will gently return back to the center position. Idk is this is a telemffb thing or a native DCS thing. Sounds normal, right?
Quickest way to be certain would be to test without TelemFFB, however, TelemFFB does not touch spring forces or centering in any way (except for trim on the harrier).
I suspect the telemetry is going crazy during certain conditions like crashing and system startup. Need to add additional safeguards to ensure the effects can only start under the right conditions.
I am asking here as there are lots of people and especially Walmis of course who understand FFB and how it works and so might know. There is an issue with the F14, when trying to use the ACLS, whereby when you get to the bit where you hand off control at around 2 miles, the jet will drive down into the sea. Apparently is a Heatblur issue, but it only does it when using an FFB joystick.....any way it could be investigated to understand the cause?
I was flying the Cabri in MSFS today with hardware force trim turned on in the Configurator, and have hat/button assignments for the various trimming functions, but it doesn't seem to be working. This is what I have set up. Master gain is at 74%, and I typically keep the spring force knob (default assignment) at around 30-50%.. It worked before --- am I missing something? This is with a build that is probably two days old (I haven't installed the very latest one yet).
Hi walmis, my joystick stopped forces e few times in the last days. Rudder motor was ok. And the position of the stick was working so I could controll the aircraft. Restarting the flight all was OK again. Do you have an idea or tip where I could search the error?
When I said that it worked for me before -- I've been mostly in DCS for the last three or so weeks until a couple days ago and so this build is much newer than what I used in the beginning, when it worked.
Because of the way TelemFFB takes control of the spring for all of MSFS, you will need sticky enabled in order for the spring forces and configured force trim in configurator to work.
I’ve been playing with implementing a pseudo-native force trim in TelemFFB for MSFS but have run into some challenges and haven’t had a chance to run by walmis yet.
Star Citizen wouldn’t have any FFB but you can still use them like a regular stick. The electronics would replace the springs for centering forces and be tunable. Probably more tunable than a regular spring stick.
I noticed my fans running a lot more with the latest telemetry update in the f15. Probably because of the simulated g load on the y axis in turns. How hot can the motors get before it gets dangerous? They sit at around 53c in rate fights constantly.
Mine has just been delivered Ofc, curiosity got the better of me so I unboxed it at work and just connected to see if everything was OK.
What I noticed is that X motor status was OK, Y motor was OFFLINE in the VP configurator. I did try reconnecting the PSU, engage and disengage E-stop button, nothing changes. I had to pack it for now, will continue when I get home from work, but I'm curious can anyone get me any pointers what to look at first?
Not sure if this is a support or general thing. Are helos supposed to be force trim by default in dcs with ffb enabled? I tried the huey, Apache, and gazelle and all of them had spring feeling and return to center. The tension was different, and telemffb effects were playing, so there was telemetry
All of that is handled by each individual module. Take a look at the DCS section in the manual in #VPforce Rhino WIP Manual it shows what needs to be set up in DCS for the force trim to work.
