    Hi guys! I'm entirely new to this simulation stuff with racing, Got myself an oculus rift with Assetto Corsa, and due to money being tight I'm going to be starting off slow.. I've been doing research on simulation setups and decided I would go with the vibration tatic for now for the immersion until I can save to build a proper motion rig, my major question is can simtools produce vibration off a second sound card like the program simvibe can? or should I just go ahead and purchase that?

    Thank you for the quick response, I did look at the link and read everything on it, based on your experience is it worth the wait? or should I get SimVibe now, it wont bother me to spend more later for SimTools 2.0 if it turns out to be better.

    Thanks!

    SimVibe is not cheap but is a quality product for the limited range of games it supports and it allows a great deal in terms of tuning options. I guess value for money is something only you can determine.

    Drive Vibe is free and available now, so I suggest testing that to see if it can meet your needs until Game Vibe is released.
