Yeah, I've tried to get them interested in linux issues in the past with little success :D

WI've run DCS in wine with FFB a few years back, but something broke in FFB implementation in Wine recently.
fedit.exe also used to work, but now doesn't work anymore in Wine.

WI do all my development in Linux btw 
WLinux ffb utilities do work however
WWheelTest seems to work in Wine

TOhh that's awesome!
RI made a post in the Hornet wishlist DCS forum about adding effects to the Hornet if any of you guys want to jump on the bandwagon..
VSounds like a good idea, how many bumps do the other ideas have?
WFor those that have used the system, is the 9 Nm strong enough force? Is that overkill? Could you use more/want to use more?
V9 is higher the almost every stick I know of
Fyou can also turn it down on the fly, if it's to much for you...
F@Roller25 maybe it's better to be more specific in your thread on the DCS forum. call the feature "FFB offset from center" and maybe provide some real world info and reference like "in the way like it's done in the F5E, A-10 and F-14... etc."
Ais there a link to the thread?
AMy roughish measurements on my VKB GF3 give me about 35N at 0.28m as the very maximum
Athat's roughly in the ballpark
Afor me that's easily enough for anything, but if you're looking for realistic amounts of resistance you might need more strength
Aso basically I haven't tried the Rhino myself, but I feel pretty confident that 9Nm would be enough for me

RI thought about being more specific, but I thought I'd just post something brief just to get the conversation going for now...
FED Forums
Please can we have force feedback implemented in DCS: F/A-18C Hornet module? Thanks
RMaybe we should bump that thread then..??
Fusually you need specific technical and rl SME info to tickle ED's "as realistic as possible" brain stem
VYeah I think you'll struggle to convince ED, I know from experience just how reluctant they can be to implement unrealistic but gameplay enhancing features
RForce based on g load isn't unrealistic though. Its definitely not based on g at the moment. 4g at say 250kts at the moment feels much lighter than 4g at 400kts.
Fsomeday, ED needs to get hands on a Rhino 
Fmaybe our community here can collect a donation, to finance a Rhino base for ED. i already started with a Virpil Constellation Alpha grip so we only need a base.
RI'd chip in if it meant guaranteed ffb development from ED.
CAnd I thought DCS in linux is dead after my rookie attempt at making a linux distro my daily driver 
CGlad to know DCS actually works for people these days!
Fwell, they never dropped it since 2009
Feven the new Mirage F1 by Aerges will feature FFB
RSeems only 3rd party developers implement it properly
Dwell if any developer, i definitely hold Aegres up to their standard, they're pretty good at what they do
i hope the Mirage's launch will go well for them :) as next to nobody flies the C101 (except for me ofcourse)

VDoes razbam do FFB? that's my only real concern
Foh no, look at helicopters and warbirds from ED...
VYeah I'm not aware of any incorrect ffb implementation by ED, but all I have to go by is the description of other people using it
Dmaybe, i wouldn't count on it
Di mean what does Razbam do? other than pasting GPS images on a few polygons and calling that a map we've all been waiting for...
or (insert literally anything here that didn't go well)

VThey do have the best radar simulation by far
Fyeah, and the Mirage 2000C did a big jump lately. people tend to think such undertakings are quickly done
VObjectively speaking, razbam is one of the best developers in terms of module quality
Fthere is only one black sheep in the hangar
FGazelle...
VJesus, don't remind me
VI'm praying they pull off the kiowa so they can go back to the gaz
Foh i have a little fear what will come (or never) with the kiowa
VThe stuff they have done on the gaz recently like removeable doors, cosmetic UK antennas, different variants is all great
VIt just needs to fly
Fyeah, the most important thing of all
Fcosmetics are the easy part
