SIMVIBE from https://simxperience.com needs your data to add to their presets
I would absolutely love for some sort of feedback output.
The API you are referring to (if on windows) is the force feedback UWP
can read more about it here : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/wi...el-and-force-feedback#force-feedback-overview
If they were to actually have some sort of direct x output or even a config file outputting the little bobble heads motion variables, I could make elite work with a motion simulator.
(yes im in the middle of making a 6DOF, no its not for elite, its for practicing for a pilots license on a rather pricey flight sim.)

This is what I was asked to ask for : If someone is in communication with the developers of any game, we would request the following for non-racing games:

Elite Dangerous & using Simvibe would be insanly great. Using racing with simvibe I at first this would be a gadget. But very quick after a few races, it became a must. Currently if I can't use Simvibe in racing, I ususally don't drive at all. Especially in VR this would be a win-win situation! Supporting this thread +1.
Bump.
Is this still not a thing?

Still not a thing... I have simvibe... it still does not work with Elite. I even have a 2nd sound card. It's too bad really. Guess I can go back to just doubling the sub output from my amp... and not have the computer separate. I did write the lead sound guy at fdev with the info they needed to send different data.
This is what I got back from simxperience :
Hi bluecrash, We need the ability to capture the raw telemetry from the game. We would love to support it but last time I reached out to them, they didn't have plans to unlock that ability for us or any other motion platforms. Sincerely, Darin Gangi
I have attached the file, that elite would need to implement - for this to happen

Such a shame that this isn't on FDev's radar. I can't imagine how epic the extra immersion would be from having this feature enabled.
