[Official] SimShaker for Aviators

[_schepper_]

Yeah it seems the AoA is bugged from the Harrier... At least what DCS reports, thus I think it might be an early access thing...

 

Maybe I'll implement a workaround...

 

 

If you have some spare time, you could check if the AoA shown in the dcs debug view in SSA and the AoA displayed in the Harrier/F2 view are similar or not...

Oke i will check, but work has stopt me from flying :)

I'm seeing 13% CPU usage on the SSA when DCS is up (i.e a full core) is it normal?

 

it there a way to slow the SHEM poll? trigger every 1ms or 5ms rather then what I suspect is "As fast as you can"

On my system it's less then 2% as long its connected to DCS and receives data. If it's not connect to DCS the load might be a bit higher. Nevertheless, since almost all computer have more then one processor it's not a big issue...

I released a new stable basically it's the latest beta. My computer 'died' but fortunately a new one is already on it's way...

Yea, I just had that happen to me. Been flying Harrier lately, and since its not supported in the stable version of Simshaker (1.0.3.2), I havent been running it. But tonight I was, and it was the first time I really flew/explored DCS 2.2, and was trying to figure out what was giving me these performance hits (flew the Harrier again). Then in the end here, I looked at task manager and could see my cpu was working hard, and 25% of that came from Simshaker.

When I then took a module thats supported by Simshaker, the cpu usage dropped to 2-3% for Simshaker. So its like when its sitting there listening for a module with DCS running, the cpu hit goes waaay up.

Exactly, once SSA detects that DCS is running it waits (high load) for incoming data... I might add some checks to reduce the load there but nevertheless, its waiting...

Regarding the G-effect coming and going. Its not only the Harrier. I just had happen with the Mirage in Simshaker 1.0.3.2 stable / DCS 2.2. Didnt really look for a pattern, if it was related to airspeed. I was über busy dodging SA-15's, but picked it up cause I was really yanking and banking, and was right up at 9G - screen starting to fade black, and nothing came from the seat. Then after some more maneuvers, it was back again.

 

Ill try and pay more attention and see if I can find a solid way to reproduce in the Mirage aswell.

My G-Effect deadzone is set to -1 / +4

[f4l0]

Thanks for the feedback.

I got my new computer running but didn't find the time to setup my dev environment.

I'm currently very busy with my 'real' work. Thus SSA have to wait. I hope that I can do some stuff over the coming weekend and Christmas...

[Knock-Knock]

No worries, no rush from here. Just reporting what I come aross, or has been come across.

Enjoy life and christmas ;)

Yeah, but it still bothers me that some of you encounter really strange G-feeling bugs. Because I didn't change anything there in the last months...

[Mr_sukebe]

Sorry for being a bit thick, but does anyone have a link to the new beta with AV8BNA support?

[mr_mojo97]

Click the Simshaker blog link in f410 post above -should be in there somewhere

[Home Fries]

I have downloaded the blog link and it still installs 1.0.1.32 (not 47).

[f4l0]

The latest stable 1.0.1.38 comes with support for the Harrier...

 

Changelog for the last versions:

 

Version 1.0.1.38 – stable release

- Includes all previous beta releases

Version 1.0.1.37 – beta release

- Ground bump effect slowed down a bit

- Jet engine rpm effect reduced by 25% for Jetseat

Version 1.0.1.36 – beta release

- DCS Harrier effects adjusted

Version 1.0.1.35 – beta release

- DCS Harrier (basic) hover effect added ← might change in future

- DCS Harrier refuel boom effect

- GroundBump effect now reads wheel/tire rotation to identify if moving. This unfortunately conflicts with wheel blocking/skid effect.

Version 1.0.1.34 – beta release

- DCS Harrier RPM effect added

- DCS Harrier belly on ground effect adjusted

Version 1.0.1.33 – beta release

- DCS Harrier added

My thanks for the update.

Tried the install, but got an error message during the final validation step. Error message:

 

Looks like your anti virus software removed some files. Pleas check the logs of your anti virus software...

 

@all: In the near future the SoundModule will be a separate installation since this module usually causes the issues and is developed/maintained by Andre...

[Mr_sukebe]

Sorted!

My thanks. Temporarily disabled my AV and it installed perfectly.

Just tested in my Harrier. Definitely working. Another smiling customer...

[f4l0]

I received some messages that the automatic update does not work.

Is anyone here experiencing the same? The current stable is 1.0.1.38

[cordite]

The beta auto update works, but the stable does not.

 

I just tried downloading the stable version direct from the blog link, and it shows as 1.0.1.32

[Home Fries]

The latest stable 1.0.1.38 comes with support for the Harrier...

 

Awesome, Thanks! :thumbup:

[Mars Exulte]

Yay =) Thank you! It's been rough flying the Harrier without the seat. Feels so dead without it =)

[rrohde]

Just another observation here - when using the stable (or the beta) SimShaker, there's no feedback from the DCS Fw-190 MGs in the jet seat; however, the cannons feel right.

 

In comparison, the MGs for the Bf-109 and the cannons are perfectly fine.

 

Could it be that the Fw-190 MGs are are not added to SimShaker?

[tester]

Effects for DCS Fw-190 MG131 and MG151 work at my cape. For MG131 is more feeble, and joint MG131 + MG151 - at full capacity when using a cape in the USB mode.

[cordite]

My stable 1.0.32 auto updated to 1.0.39

Now it's working again.
