Home build FTW!

I run homemade transducers in my chair - rat/steampunk build with a dedicated 7.1 surround amp powering them. Even with the rift on, the feel is great. It adds a very definite layer of immersion!

The build is here


also worth checking out some of the other builds

TIOOs is worth a look

I decided to build as I could not find what I wanted on the high street.

That and voice attack is fairly 'realistic'
I second this.. I decided to pull one of my crunch1.1ooo amps and some subs out of my truck and hooked them up to my gaming chair. I simply sat the speakers on the floor behind my chair, set LPF to 70-75 hz and away I went. the vibrations REALLY add to the immersion effect. Lastnight I ordered the buttkicker ct and cant wait for it to arrive. the D-scanner rummble literally gives you a 6 second massage. I can "feel" the engines (kinda like feeling the RPM of a car motor) , the pad landings, taking hits in combat and even turbulence at certain speeds. I did not have to adjust or tweak anything other that the amp that powers the "shakers". I say go for it if you're interested.
 
just trying to keep it simple for me, have simvibe for iracing using the same mobo soundcard, its great to see everyone's different ideas to get the same result, the old saying more than one way to skin a cat, lol
 
I have ordered a lot of bits n bobs to add "Sim Vibe" to my racing ring for IRacing (I use the Rift, of course) - more 'feeling' rather than visual...

So this got me thinking - I wonder if the SimVibe software would / could / can support Elite Dangerous....

Anyone a member of the "Sim Experience" club that can post in their forums ask the question or have any knowledge? (I haven't pushed the button yet to buy the software for SimVibe, so cannot see / post on the forums)

Thoughts?

Nosh

I asked Berney about this, the guy who made it.. He says that they are more focusing on getting Sim Commander 4 done and out of beta before looking at other games like Elite.. So the answer I guess is: Not right now..
 
Update from them, hopefully the mods can pass this info along

""
They (FD) still haven't added any motion support to the game. They keep changing all the memory addresses every time they bring out an update so you can't even do a memory hook reliably without having to rewrite the plugin every few weeks when they bring out a new update.

We really need to make some noise on the ED forums about this because it is the only way that they will add motion support for it.

Sim Commander can only support a game if they provide some kind of motion or telemetry API.""

id say now is as good a time as any, what with VR being the topic of 2016...
god damnit get with sim commander so we can actually "fee" our ED play sessions.
enough is enough
