Pribs86 Posted March 29 Posted March 29 Hey guys, not sure where to put this so I'll do it here. I've noticed that when doing a cold start in helicopters my buttkicker, before starting up the aircraft, will be rumbling from the engine RPMs. Even after shutdown in the AH-64, OH-58, and CH-47 it will be rumbling. I don't have any other helo's so I can only speak to these. Any way to request a change in this? It's kinda weird to have it going well before you start the engines when everything else is silent. I emailed buttkicker about it and they said it would be on your end to get the telemetry changed. Thank you in advance! Have a great day! 1
Flappie Posted March 29 Posted March 29 Hey @hannibal, could you please check? I'm not sure how to check this. 2 ---
hannibal Posted March 29 Posted March 29 Hey everyone. Buttkicker, dayton audio pucks and aura shakers are hardware, not software. So first question. What software are u using? It's going to be Andres simshaker or buttkicker hapticonnect, or simHaptic by rk Apps.. Which one are u using @Pribs86 2 find me on steam! username: Hannibal_A101A http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197969447179
hannibal Posted March 29 Posted March 29 (edited) so i use Andre's simshaker. i check startup and shutdown for the AH64D, and everything works ok. how ever andre's simshaker dont use RPM telemetry for AH64D. today i spend the afternoon tuning my motion platform to include RPM for some planes, had time to configure the F14 and P51, each with its specific profile on my motion platoform. there is some lua programming for LoGetEngineInfo which includes the RPM left engine and right engine. later ill see what value a helicopter gives me. at this moment, i think its on buttkicker to configure their Hapticonnect software correcly, and from my experience, each aircraft has to be tuned... so if hapticonnect is using a general function to handle ALL aircraft, the effects will be BAD. (from google search my impression is that hapticonnect does not include profiles for each aircraft, but i dont know, cause i DO NOT have this software) at this time, my opinion is go andre's simeshaker or simHAptic Edited March 29 by hannibal find me on steam! username: Hannibal_A101A http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197969447179

Pribs86 Posted March 30 Author Posted March 30 (edited) Sorry, I should have mentioned the software but it slipped my mind at the time. I have Buttkicker Hapticonnect. I don't have an issue tuning anything to do what I want it to, the issue is when I start a helo from cold and dark with nothing on and the engine RPMs are already going before the engine is even started... and the engine RPMs stay running long after shutdown. Other than that it works great. Edited March 30 by Pribs86
