Dr. No•1/13/24, 6:36 PM

For DCS look in export.lua in your saved games settings ... there is HF8 software(im assuming you're using HF8 here) that tries to override or compete with SSA (sim shaker aviators if you have that) you basically need to comment one out by using -- and use either one or the other.

Dr. No•1/13/24, 6:38 PM

As for telemFFB there is a part of the export.lua in there as well. It shouldnt conflict, if it does try switching which gets executed first by putting it above or below where your shaker seat is being triggered in export.lua

Hello everybody. I have a little issue. When flying the apache in dcs and using the force trim button the joystick stays in that position. However on the in game overlay i can see that the joystick is moving back (50% of the way between center point and trim set, you can feel it also in on the stick that its moving back a tiny bit). that results in a pitch up again, when trying to trim nose down. Tried the in game special settings for FFB but no differents at all. do i have to change something in the rhino software?

If you are pushing vpconf profiles via TelemFFB, make sure the profile is for the right PID, or it will overwrite what’s on the device currently.

TrigaNZ•1/14/24, 2:24 AM

OK, so it just did it again, when TelemFFB did a push. Would you suggest I delete my pedal configs and start again to make sure? Looked in the pedal config file and can't see actual PID number, but the serial look correct.

in that file:

"usb_pid": 8275,

"usb_pid": 8275,

decimal 8275 = 0x2053

I assume 2053 is the correct PID for your pedals. Check the logs and make sure it is loading the file you think it is.. look for a line like this in the logs:

From what I gathered this also require a chromium browser, so for simplicity sake just use chrome to do it.

Firefox is not supported at all.

I am using chrome ,and changing usb port made the web app able to recognise the rhino base, so now my rhino is connected but when I hit the update firmware tab I get this error.... NetworkError:Failed to execute 'ClaimInterface' on 'USBDevice': Unable to claim Interface.

I don’t have il2 but the effects shown are based on the class. JetAircraft should have them

Dr. No•1/14/24, 11:32 PM

Oh this is DCS for A-4 mod

DDr. No Oh this is DCS for A-4 mod

Number481•1/14/24, 11:53 PM

All the telemetry for DCS is generated by the export script. That file hasn’t changed in some time. It pulls a lot of generic telemetry and some aircraft specific telemetry. There is no special telemetry it is pulling for the A4 (generally mod aircraft are pretty thin in available data).

If you have the A4 added to your user config as a Jet, you should see the same available effect settings as any other DCS jet. Whether they work or not will depend on the telemetry (or lack thereof) from the A4.

Dr. No•1/15/24, 12:10 AM

Ah very cool thanks for that update ill work with the A-4 team to get that telemetry hooked up

The DL log lines are there whether or not the download is being slow. They just scroll by really fast normally.

I’ve seen the DL site act slow before myself (whether manual download or via updater).
