    Hi,

    I purchased the Entertainment license couple of weeks ago and it turned out that the Beta 1 does not work with iRacing. At least according to discussion I read about it. I wasn't able to change the "force" amounts and others had had the same problem. Am I right and does it work now? I would use it for tactile feedback only and motion maybe later. So far it's not the best situation as I've paid 89 € and got nothing.

    It is not that Game Vibe does not work with iRacing, rather it is that plugins need to be updated to take advantage of Game Vibe and there is a ton of them that will need doing once Game Vibe beta testing progresses so that any necessary changes are made to it.

    Patience guys. I'm still ironing some last details with @yobuddy on GameVibe core. All bugs we could find were resolved and the next step is the update of plugins and creation of some initial profiles for it.

    Okay, I'm not pissed off, although not too happy either as it was published after all. At this point we have to wait for the updates and meanwhile, I think I need to purchase Simxperience's Simvibe to be able to test the system. Shame, but no choice basically.

    You can test with LFS and learn how it works and test your system.

    GameVibe was published as a Beta Release.
    So everyone could see where we are, and were we are going.
    And can comment if they think a change needs to be made, etc...
    I may be the guy holding the pain brush, but SimTools is very much a community project.
    So as much input as i can get is always good.

    Public Beta's are very handy to be able to check multiple sound setup and test that everything is working as it should.
    So i really don't get people upset for letting them use it early for testing.
    But its seems all I have done is angered some.
    Sorry about that.

    Just so everyone know, new plugins are in the pipeline.

    As I said, I'm not pissed off if it's me you refer to. I will wait for updates and plugins for iRacing to work. I don't mean to be impatient or such, it was a big coincidence in the first place that I was in need for this kind of software the very week the beta was launched.

    Keep up the good work.

    I'm sorry buddy, this was not geared at you, more toward some of the email I have gotten.
    I never mean or try to make anything personal.
    And I know that its not a lot of fun only having LFS for GameVibe.

    In the end, we are doing all this so all possible games can be supported properly.
    We have built a system here, so a game plugin writer can add GameVibe support should they choose to at anytime.
    We don't have to update GameVibe itself to add a game to GameVibe.

    It just takes a bit to make sure everything is correct before we start pumping out plugins only to find a problem with one of them.
    And then they all have to be updated again for that one game to work.
    It just good to take a few baby steps to make sure its solid for future use!

    I want all games than can be supported, to be supported by GameVibe!
    This is the reason for the beta overall, make sure we have a solid core.
    So in the end, we can have all we want from this tentacle system!

    Take care all,
    Won't be long now,
    Dustin

    Hello,

    I don't find how to get dash and vibe to work here, everything is ok with the 6 dof stuff

    However, in the game manager => profile editor => more the case dash and vibe are dark, never lighted

    Vibe and dash don't do a thing when the game start, but game manager and game engine work flawlessly.

    I did check enable dash and vibe in game manager :p

    Any help ?

    (gamie is dirt rally)

    This is enabled only when the plugin supports Vibe and Dash.
    It's not a config, it's the code of the plugin.

    Here's your response.
    Today, only LFS plugin bundled with SimTools fully supports Vibe.

    I'm trying to help @yobuddy to get more plugins compatible.
    There are high chances that Dirt Rally is one of the next.
    :D
