Maybe better to delete everything related to TelemFFB and start from scratch?
Maybe better to delete everything related to TelemFFB and start from scratch?
NWell, thats what I said to do initially.. blow away the folder and re-extract the zip (but save your config.user.ini if you had created one)
IAre files installed in DCS I need to delete?
IOr Saved Games DCS Scripts?
Nyou need to enter the whole command first:
Then you can enter:
cd C:\Users\Jose\Downloads\VPforce-TelemFFB-wip-dbdbb26fThen you can enter:
VPforce-TelemFFB.exeNno, you dont need to delete anything from DCS. The export script that TelemFFB adds will still be there, but its fine.
I
NSomething is corrupted in your folder. Best to just delete it and start over.
IThanks for your help, will delete and stat again
ISame problem with just new install , wont start andf also I cannot read files
I
BFor the sake of trying something different, maybe try moving it from your downloads folder? Or a sfs /scannow from an elevated command prompt?
NYou had it running at one point though? Something is fundamentally wrong here...
Do this that I had previously said from the CLI

II got this
IClick yes?
Nthats normal when there are updates to the export script or when you are installing for the first time. Yes, hit 'Yes'
IAnd on this? click on anything or leave it alone?
I
Nleave it.. when you load an aircraft in DCS it will start showing the telemetry and generating the effects
IAwesome , thanks a lot
IThe 109 in DCS has no engine rumble effect, I just add it in the config file to make it work?
I
Nit shouldn't actually be needed there since it is enabled in the "[DCS.PropellerAircraft]" section. The config is a hierarchical model.
IBut when I fly the 109 I dont get engine rumble effect.
NWhat about any other warbird. Does it play there?
Unless you disabled it under
Are you sure that TelemFFB is receiving the telemetry properly from DCS? You should see a bunch of data in the TelemFFB window if so.
After you have loaded into the 109, and the effect is not playing, drop the log that gets generated in the “log” folder of the TelemFFB directory into this channel and I will take a look.

Nreally need to see the whole log. you should be able to just drag the log file from a windows exloerer window into this discord channel window and then send it
IGot a message it was to big to upload.
IAlso now TelemFFB wont start at all, so deleted the folder and created a new one, and wont work either
INow neither WIP or stable version of Telem FFB works.
II think I might need to delete every trace of it and start again, might be a trace somewhere that dont allow it to work
II have no idea what is making this so difficult in my PC
NTelemFFB, for all its complexity, is quite a simple app. It does not "install" per-se. It only exists inside the folder where you un-zip it. Delete that folder and its entirely gone. The only exception is the export script for DCS, but there is nothing you could do to that script that would cause TelemFFB not to start up.
You were having problems getting TelemFFB to start at all initially, what did you do differently that you got the app to even start up? You never said.
A log file that is too big to upload to discord? Thats hard to believe.. how big is it? If its failing and not even establishing communications with a sim, it should be measured in kilobytes.. pretty sure the standard file size limit for discord is 25MB...

II made it work the very first time I installed it had machine guns effect , ground roll etc
IThen did not work
IThru cmd and the instructions you gave me it started , but I could not feel any effects
Nyou can try to zip up the log file which should make it smaller (right click on the log file and select "Compress to Zip File").
I need better descriptions. "It won't work" does not help me figure out what is going on. If there are error messages or popups, I need to know.
I need you to try running it from a command prompt like you did before and tell me what it says.

Icmd makes it start
I
INow its working with effects
Iwhen I started from cmd
I
IAll the effects are working
ISo the problems seems to be the exe file to start TelemFFB
NI can't imagine how a pc could even be set up that would make it not start by double clicking the exe.. are you creating a shortcut somewhere? Are you sure you aren't accidentally creating a copy of the exe instead of a shortcut?
