    Thank you very much!!!
    I tried to find a way to summarize the plugin page based on Game Vibe support but I did not find the way.
    Did I miss something? o_O

    Thanks again!!!

    There is no filter as such that I am aware of. Perhaps @RaceRay could have a look at what that functionality would take to implement.

    But you can use the Custom Google Search box toward the top right of the Recent forum page to find plugins with Game Vibe support.

    Thanks!!! As you suggested, I talked about the idea to @RaceRay .

    In the meantime I'm looking "manually" between plugins. Unfortunately, at the moment the Dirt3 plugin does not support Game Vibe :(.

    Dirt 3 is an old game, but I love it because it works very well with my simple 2DOF! :D

    Ciao! :thumbs

    Ciao.
    Sorry for the question. A damn virus has damaged my system. :mad:
    I'm trying to restore everything, but when I start Game Vibe I get this error:

    GameVibe error.png

    I tried to reinstall the Microsoft .NET frameweork, but I can not fix it. :(
    Any suggestions? :confused:

    Thank you very much!!!

    Make sure .net 3.5 is installed: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/simtools-v2-game-vibe.11359/page-7#post-155042

    And reinstall DirectX: https://www.microsoft.com/en-nz/download/details.aspx?id=8109

    Greetings again @yobuddy .
    This could be a stipulating question, but I need a clarification.

    Using the Game Vibe in "3D mode" and configuring the 4 channels [FR+FL & RR+RL], the positioning of the speakers must follow the same pattern, or the pattern must reflect the configuration of Game Vibe, ie [FRONT+REAR & RIGHT+LEFT]?

    These are two schemes to better explain the doubt:

    Thanks to you and to all the people on the forum that support our projects! :thumbs

    Use a setup like in the first pic you posted.
    It just makes more sense as that is how the cars wheels are sitting.
    Take care,

    That flips the direction of the 3d output is all buddy.
    should you hit a wall head on and the sound comes from the back, this will fix it.

    Ok, now it's clear to me. In fact it is a function that can be useful.
    Thank you @yobuddy ! :thumbs

    Hi all
    Quick question is it possible to get the info from an existing plugin to then add Game Vibe ?
    Goes without saying if it’s possible all credit would go to original plugin dev.

    Regards
    Dag

    So, my pc video and sound are going via HDMI to my stereo receiver and when playing VR the sound is output into my headset. Am I correct in assuming that the buttkicker would also need to be connected to the receiver and GameVibe would need to be set up as video card audio in order to get things to work correctly?

    You should have a separate sound card for Game Vibe: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/gamevibe-manual.11358/

    @deemjackson,
    Maybe open a thread on your GameVibe problem buddy.
    Post some screen shots of your setup for GameVibe and we maybe able to help you with the configuration.

    Take care,
