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.

[DCS.PropellerAircraft], you don’t need to add it to the 109 config section. 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.

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?
II did creted a shortcut the first time to the desktop and since it did not worked I deleted it
II just closed and tried to start it with the exe and it wont start
Ndouble clicking the exe inside the extracted TelemFFB folder is functionally identical to running it from command prompt as you did.. that is why I am scratching my head.
II just moved the folder to Program files and wont start from there either
Nyou don't want it in Program files anyway.. windows puts all sorts of restrictions on what apps can do when inside the Program Files directory.
IOk
IJust downloaded the newest version, its in the downloads folder, again wont start from the exe
Ieven if I run it as administrator
Ndownloads folder isn't a good spot either, too easy to get deleted or overwritten (but that isn't the reason its not working.).. For simplicity I would just put the folder on your desktop
IOk just moved the folder to desktop , still exe wont work
Idid you said no to windows security question?
NI'm pretty much out of ideas.. there is no functional reason it shouldn't work through windows explorer if it works through command prompt.
Do you have any antivirus software that could be blocking it from launching? (it would be pretty poor AV if it let you launch it through command prompt but not directly through explorer)... thats about all I got left for ideas

II just tried and again I can start it with cmd
IUnder requirements I do not have the first 2 of the list, could that be the issue?
IRequirements
Python 3
Git (https://git-scm.com/) to download the source from Github
DCS World and a VPforce Rhino FFB Joystick/kit

DCS World and a VPforce Rhino FFB Joystick/kit
Nno.. if it runs from command prompt, it should run by double clicking the exe.. simple as that. Why its not, I just can't even guess.
N(those requirements are if you are wanting to clone the source repository and run it natively in python)
IOk , no idea why this is happening, will keep working on it, I appreciate your help
HMy TelemFFB takes a particularly long time to start up, about 4 minutes. The phenomenon is that after double-clicking, there is no response, but after 4 minutes, the window suddenly pops up. I am using the latest WIP version on November 24th. Is there any solution for this?
WCould be an issue of blocking when accessing the network and trying to fetch the new version information, can you open the link https://vpforcecontrols.com/downloads/TelemFFB/latest.json in the browser?
Also best to move the telemFFB related issues to https://discord.com/channels/965234441511383080/1093558100713279508

CHi walmis, I have a possibly strange question: could you send me a copy of the Rhino's HID Descriptor, that tells the host system about how to talk to the Rhino? I'm looking at driving a Rhino directly from a microcontroller but don't have a Rhino myself at the moment.
Specifically I'm looking at something that can try to offer a dual-control setup – that looks like a single joystick device to the 'upstream' computer, while managing two 'downstream' joysticks to allow student+instructor or similar setups.

WHi, you can buy a Rhino FFB mainboard for testing, it will still work without motors and all features will work, except input will be fixed at 0.0.
CI don't really have a need for a mainboard at this point, just the HID report descriptor would serve me for what I need right now (still in very early stages).
ITwo questions when flying warbirds in DCS when I pull hard on the stick to pitch up , I can feel resistance which feels natural, but then it gets soft and hard again kind of scilating, which effect gets rid of that?
