Just sayin.

Kudos to f410 for one of the most contributory and best serviced site in DCSdom.

I'm having an issue in that SimShaker for Aviators doesn't seem to recognize DCS in-game, even though it detects DCS and the export.lua appears to be coded properly.

 

Here is the SimShaker for Aviators log from the Service tab:

And a screenshot showing that I am clearly in the Huey in DCS, but the Debug view is blank and the Current Aircraft shows as None on the Effects Settings tab.

 

The Massage and Test Vibe-Motors functions both work fine, so the issue isn't the jetseat itself. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling SimShaker and I get the same results. I run Windows 7 with Net Framework 4.5 installed. Please let me know if I should provide any more information.

 

Best,

Hey HF,

 

could you please attach you export.lua here? I bet there is something wrong...

[Home Fries]

My DCS Stable Export.lua:

 local dcsSr=require('lfs');dofile(dcsSr.writedir()..[[scripts\DCS-SimpleRadioStandalone.lua]])


local SimShakerlfs=require('lfs'); dofile(SimShakerlfs.writedir()..'Scripts/SimShaker.lua')

dofile(lfs.writedir()..[[scripts\SimShaker-export-core\ExportCore.lua]])

-- VAICOM PRO server-side script
-- Export.lua (append)
-- version 2.5.3
-- do not edit next line:
-- <serno redacted>

local vaicomlfs = require('lfs'); dofile(vaicomlfs.writedir()..[[scripts\VAICOMPRO\VAICOMPRO.export.lua]])
local Tacviewlfs=require('lfs');dofile(Tacviewlfs.writedir()..'Scripts/TacviewGameExport.lua')

 

And the Openbeta Export.lua:

local SimShakerlfs=require('lfs'); dofile(SimShakerlfs.writedir()..'Scripts/SimShaker.lua')

dofile(lfs.writedir()..[[scripts\SimShaker-export-core\ExportCore.lua]])

 local dcsSr=require('lfs');dofile(dcsSr.writedir()..[[scripts\DCS-SimpleRadioStandalone.lua]])

-- VAICOM PRO server-side script
-- Export.lua (append)
-- version 2.5.3
-- do not edit next line:
-- <serno redacted>

local vaicomlfs = require('lfs'); dofile(vaicomlfs.writedir()..[[scripts\VAICOMPRO\VAICOMPRO.export.lua]])
local Tacviewlfs=require('lfs');dofile(Tacviewlfs.writedir()..'Scripts/TacviewGameExport.lua')

 

FWIW, I also backed up and deleted my export.lua and forced SimShaker to build a new one as one of my first troubleshooting steps. Apologies for not mentioning that earlier.

[f4l0]

Hmm, I always get bugreports from users when VAICOM is involed....

You might disable the lines regarding VAICOM for a test. This can be done by adding "--" in front of the line...

[Home Fries]

Here's an interesting datapoint for you:

When I disabled the VAICOM line, SimShaker still didn't work and the debug window remained blank. However, once I exited the Huey Instant Action mission (Target Range) the Effect Settings tab showed the UH1 as the current aircraft, and I got the following in the Debug View:

LoGetModelTime: 2.238
UnitName: UH-1H
LoGetSelfData: 3.14~0.05~0.00
4: 87
VelVec: 0.00~0.00~-0.00
AGL: 2.76
7: -0.02~0.01~-0.01
Canon: 0
Accel: 0.05~1.00~-0.00
LGear: 8.56
11: 0
12: -1.71~-0.04~2.52
ASL: 7.76
14: 0
Payload: 46100*3200~4733147*19~46100*3200~46100*3200~4733147*19~46100*3200
16: 0
17: 0

19: 0.00
20: 0.00
TAS_kmh: 0.00
Flare: 0
Chaff: 0
IAS: 0
Calulated values:
GS: 0 kts

Running the mission again and it worked. Ran the A-10A Instant action and it worked as well.

Still doesn't explain why it didn't work when I deleted the export.lua the first time, though.

Can someone share their ssa and/or sound module settings here. I have the jetseat and 2 pucks running. I have everything set at 100% but would like to know and try what others use. Also if anyone is using the custom files, how did you arrive at them?

[=Andre=]

Custom files management is different for SimShaker Sound Module and JetSeat, and those are briefly described in Sound Module and SSA user guides. If you will want more details I'm at your service.

[=Andre=]

Still doesn't explain why it didn't work when I deleted the export.lua the first time, though.

 

I suggest since VAICOM managed to insert its lines in the newly created file.

Hi guys

I have Simshaker, VAICOM as well as Helios and Tacview running. In one of the threads I read that the order in which the entries appear in the export script seems to matter to get all of these to play nicely together. In my export script the Helios entry appears first, then Tacview

 

And after that (not sure if this is important, but it works for me):

 

I have the dofile for

 

Simshaker Export Core

 

Then

 

the dofile for Vaicom

 

AND THEN, LAST

 

The dofile for Simshaker.lua

 

I really do not know whether this is a factor or why it might be, but my setup runs stable and reliably with only the occasional loss of Simshaker connection when restarting a mission or Alt-Tabbing out and into DCS.

 

How this helps to pin down the issue.

Hey guys just to chime in

There's some references to VAICOM version 2.5.3: please make sure to test only with latest version 2.5.5.

This was tested to work in combination with SSA/SoundModule, TacView, and SimpleRadio, (not Helios),

in any order in export.lua. Of course if there's a snag feel free to PM, happy to have a look.

Cheers

Tests fine with VAICOM 2.5.5. Updated the 2.5.5 dll file, cleaned the LUA files, then relaunched VAICOM to reinsert the LUA files. Worked fine.

Great news :) Cheers!

Jumping over from the other thread. Got my jetseat installed, works in the Gametrix program, all motors function.

 

DCS starts with Simshaker for aviators also starting but the debug view remains empty. Also, the Mi8 won't show up in the effect setting tab.

Was any progress ever made on engine vibrations for the Hornet, outside of engaging AB? Sorry I haven’t had the time to keep up with all posts.

Not that I'm aware of. AFAIK DCS still does not export the RPM values :-( There's a thread in the wishlist part of the F18 sub forum...

What the hell?!

 

The thread was totally benign. Nothing defamatory. And was only there to hopefully raise awareness to a feature that a part of the community would appreciate being implemented...In the wishlist section.

 

I don't understand why it's been neutered.

Yeah, it's very strange. My two new posts were deleted for breaking forum rule 1.4 :huh:

(First post was just "+1" and the other was simply asking why everything had been deleted - very politely I might add.)

 

Initially I thought everthing was deleted by mistake since it is a perfectly normal thread but obliviously not :confused:
