[Official] SimShaker for Aviators

[MajSchrute]

I'm not seeing one, but is there a filter for G Feeling Effect like there is for flaps movement? I see deadzone for USB mode, but I am not using USB.

 

Also, not sure if this is an issue or not, but I turned down G Feeling down to 25, and it would vibrate up to a certain amount of G, once you cross a certain G amount it would cut off. When you got back below that certain G it would start vibrating again.

Hi, the SimShaker (for Aviators beta v2.1.2) starter/settings window does not allow "start when windows starts" to be turned on.

What's the best solution? Simply drag shortcut to Startup folder or adding registry key to ....\CurrentVersion\Run ?

 

Thanks. :helpsmilie:

Using the A-`10C II and both SSA Beta 2.1.2.0 and Stable 2.1.0.0, neither has any gun vibe. Going from 0-100, checking and unchecking the box gives no effect. Seems as though everything else is working, just not the gun. It used to work, now doesn't in the last couple days.

 

BTW, the drop down only shows the A-10C, not sure if it should show the A-10C II as well.

 

IRL, that GAU-8 will shake your fillings loose.

Maybe I've some free time over the weekend to check why autostart does not work with the new version...

The new version beta 2.1.2 does not even have the option.

Though I was unable to have it work even for older versions. The option was there but did nothing.

Ok, it should be fixed in 2.1.3 :-)

Where is the option in 2.1.3? Can't find it.

 

Nevermind I found. Right clicking on the traybar icon then "open settings" Though I still have the same issue, each time I open the settings the checkbox is unchecked...

 

Edit: so the start at windows boot works, even if the checkbox remains unchecked. Odd :)

Ah, thanks for the feedback. I'll have a look...

For the first time in most, if not all of the 2.0+ betas I can check the "Start when Windows Starts" box in 2.1.3.0. There were also a good number of the pre 2.0 releases that would have that issue for me as well as previously reported. It is a hard thing to track down I'm sure.

 

So for me the checkbox now works for me but I get the unhandled exception error when I select start SSA from the tray tool. If I quit and restart SSA manually it works.

Hi, I encountered now 3 times (randomly) the following. It might have something to do with recent windows restart or newly started simshaker but I cant confirm that yet.

 

-simshaker is started automatically with windows

-DCS is started up and when main loading screen shows up, i.e., when the "simshaker starter" is supposed to launch "simshaker for aviators" (SSA), an error occurs

-SSA does not start but .NET error message is displayed

-software version 2.1.3 beta

-"simshaker starter" halts when error message is displayed and exits if I click "quit"

-latest DCS version, Windows 10 Home FP 2004

 

I wonder what's wrong ("cannot find the file specified").

 

EDIT:

The JetPad is not found by any software until USB cable is disconnected and re-connected after the error above.

After that, it seems to work normally.

Thx for the feedback...

 

Did you try to start SSA manually over the tray icon?

[RedX]

It seems that the crash is reproducible. The "USB reconnect required" was a different issue, I don't know why that was needed at some point and I can't reproduce it.

 

About the crash:

If I click "quit", the simshaker starter stops.

If I click "continue", the simshaker starter keeps running, but:

- start simshaker via right-click-menu or the UI button does not do anything at all

- if I quit the starter and restart it, everything works normally

 

Required to reproduce:

- start simshaker starter

- click "start when windows starts" in settings

- restart computer

- starter is automatically started

- start DCS --> crash (simshaker crashes as explained above; DCS runs normally)

 

Test case: no autostart with windows, just manually start simshaker starter

- works normally

 

Test case: autostart with windows, quit simshakers starter, start simshaker starter

- works normally

 

Test case: any start of simshaker starter

- open settings menu, the tick at "start when windows starts" is always missing

- no touching of the tick: if simshaker started automatically at last PC restart, it starts automatically again when PC is restarted, and crashes again

- no touching of the tick: if simshaker was not started automatically, it will not start automatically when PC is restarted; manual start of simshaker and DCS results in normal operation

- touch the tick: turn it on and simshaker starts with windows when PC is restarted; regardless whether it started automaticall at last PC restart

- touch the tick: turn it on and then off, and simshaker does not start when PC is restarted; manual start of simshaker and DCS results in normal operation

- whenever simshaker starter is quit and started again, the "start when windows starts" tick *appears* always to be unticked in settings

 

 

Hope this helps.

never mind nivida broadcaster was causing issues

Hey, thanks for making the A-10IIC work... Can I please ask for APU rumble in the hornet and Huey, and any other aircraft that has an APU please?

Hornet does not have an APU gauge thus no way to get the current RPM of the APU. Not sure about the Huey...

[f4l0]

I just released a new beta:

 

Version 2.1.4.0 – beta release

- Autostart fixed – You might need to disable/remove autostart for SimShaker first

- Manual updated – Thanks to Alexey

[Snake122]

For me, 2.1.4 still causes the Unhandled exemption error if "Start when Windows Starts" is selected when SimShaker is started either automatically with DCS start or manually Starting SSA. The tray launcher by itself seems to be fine in the system tray until then and is there when Windows Starts.

 

I can manually add the shortcut to my shell:startup and it will run fine without the error:dunno:

The same for me. If I use autostart when it opens I get a microsoft .net exception. Do not get that if I manually start it...

[RedX]

Exactly the same here. Autostart option is corrected but the crash is still there after PC restart.

 

Is it possible that it has something to do with the installation option "Everyone" vs "Me only" ? I used the "Everyone" option.

[Snake122]

I installed switch the "Just Me" option

Hi everyone,

My Jetseat arrived Last Friday 7^th Nov 2020, which I am using for DCS. I am having a problem with the Jetseat set up. Whilst the seat connects via the USB it will not operate in that mode. I have to connect the 3.5mm audio jacks and also switch the mode button on the controller to show red which I believe to be the Sound intercept mode. I followed the instructions below

Assembly and Installation Instructions

Attach the JetSeat to a chair using straps

Connect the JetSeat control unit by means of DIN connectors

Connect the AC/DC power adapter to the JetSeat and AC network

Set JetSeat On/Off switch to ON

Download and install Gametrix JetSeat Control Panel and Massage applications

Connect JetSeat USB connector into a PC USB port.

Sound Intercept mode

You can use JetSeat in its Sound Intercept mode with any game (not only PC game but actually at any device with 3.5 mm sound output).

Plug JetSeat's 3.5 mm male jack into your device sound output (as if it was a Buttkicker amplifier),

plug a headset or speakers into JetSeat's 3.5 mm female jack,

press and hold MODE button at JetSeat's control unit for 3 seconds. LED color changes. Wait about 10 seconds for changes to take effect. That's it.

Further steps: adjust vibration level by rotating a big black dial at the control unit or via JetSeat Control Panel App.

Disappointingly I am also unable to detect any DCS aircraft in the Simshaker application, download is the beta version 2.1.4.0 (I had earlier tried the stable version with the same result) I just see the generic Jet Engine, Helicopter and Piston options.

I also have installed NET Framework 4.8

I have an email trail with Andre but no progress so far.

Additionally the kit passes the test modes with all sensors vibrating.

I’m hoping you smart guys/gals out there might be able to help me find a solution.
