FFB Configurator
Spring Gain Map Graph Appears to be Reversed
When adjusting the spring map, the graph adjusts the gain in the opposite sense to the axis movement displayed. In the attached image the position of each axis as indicated should result in the mapped spring gain. However, the gain is as mapped for the opposite direction. In this example, the gain is zero for the indicated postions but follows the map when moved in the opposite direction.

My Rhino Y-axis is inverted (e-stop facing forward). X-axis is not inverted but the direction of movement displays in the map graph and in the display on the settings tab as expected.

Hi! I'm encountering a strange behavior on my Rhino, occurs with both aircraft I tried this morning (DCS Tomcat and Hornet). It's almost like effects from TelemFFB are full force, but I get no resistance (compared to yesterday) when pushing/pulling the stick. Would this ring a bell? I did not remember modifying the settings since yesterday, tried unplugging both USB and power brick. Pot is 100% and set to Master Gain.

Are you loading any vpconf profile via TelemFFB? It doesn’t do anything to affect the spring forces on the joystick axis in DCS.

tmz•2/12/24, 1:35 PM

OK, just found it on the TelemFFB KB, it is this issue : https://discord.com/channels/965234441511383080/1093558100713279508/1203549616189214784

Anthony•2/13/24, 2:53 AM

The WinWing adapter, can that be used on Virpil’s extensions?

I’m considering a WW stick, but with my current setup I can’t really do without the VPC Z extension, hence the question.

Anthony•2/13/24, 2:56 AM

So it’d be:

WW grip

WW adapter
+
VPC Z extension

May I also ask ( been reading the manual...) in what circumstances would you use the endstops function & axis rescale and why? The manual expalins what they do, but not why and how you might use them. thanks

walmis•2/13/24, 11:43 AM

Axis scaling : for example to stiffen controls, to mimic F-16 force sensing somewhat.
Endstops: to (soft) limit travel, the same purpose as the hardware throw limiter, but less reliable.

Swoop•2/13/24, 11:45 AM

Hey all - sorry if this is a daft question. I'm nearly at the point where I need to buy a DIY kit and was wondering what the difference between all the options are. Any advice on which I should purchase?

Number481•2/13/24, 3:02 PM

suggest just creating a "VPForce-TelemFFB" folder somewhere and moving the contents of the folder in your downloads directory to it. You can place your config.user.ini file in the directory with the new version. It will offer to import the settings into the new config structure (see 4.2.1.2 in the manual).

mark turner•2/13/24, 3:30 PM

OK, have done all that. I have 3 different vpconf files, for different modules (F14, F5 and F18) To enable automatic running of each when I use that module, I went to System/Edit Sim class defaults 7 offline models. I then in the 3rd column dropdown selected all the F14 variants there ( there are 3..?) and scrolled to the bottom to configurator file. I checked this box, then I highlighted the line and used the browse button to navigate to the location of the saved config files ( in my case in "configs" in my main VPforce configurator file location) . On selection, I was returned to the GUI, but there was no where I could see that link was made. Was that the correct procedure for linking a profile to a particular module? Assuming that is correct, I can then in the same GUI edit the Telem FFB effects for that module to differing values using the slider after highlighting each one....correct?

mark turner•2/13/24, 3:34 PM

Final query ( I hope!) Some of the configs I mentioned aboved were from a buddy. He has some quite different values in the "expert settings" section. I enclose a picture of mine, which I think ( was a while ago now) Walmis recommended. Could I ask that someone take a look at my values and tell me if they are correct? And if not what changes you would recommend and why. many thanks

Number481•2/13/24, 3:50 PM

In the defaults/class editor, after browsing for the file you need to hit the "update value" button, at which point you will see the value updated in the table...

The process is the same for editing any value via that interface.
