    Thanks yobuddy, I managed to get it to work. After capturing min/max values with Game Vibe Tuning Centre and saving, it began to work!

    Is there a list of which game plugins (updates) support gamevibe?

    The plugin download pages have a summary of supported functionality for each plugin, if Game Vibe is listed in the summary it is supported, but if it is not explicitly stated then Game Vibe is not supported.

    Hello
    I have a problem with Game Vibe that gives me the same message from error as Bacon2002 but unfortunately its solution did not solve my problem. Would you have an idea to help me solve this problem? I launched DxDiag which did not find an error.
    I will attach you in PDF the complete error message.

    Thank you for your help.

    It seems the problem is with the local emulator you are using.
    Are you using a 3rd party app for this?

    Hey again,

    After reinstalling windows (due to blue screen issues..)
    I've setup gamevibe again, but within Dirt Rally it's not working. Basskicker is set to headphones.

    What am I missing?
    GameVibe:
    - Audio testers in Sound card Settings works
    - Vibe Creator testing works fine
    - Tuning center does capture Hi/Low
    Game Manager:
    - enables Vibe output at 10ms
    - game is patched
    Windows:
    - When (for testing) regular sound is set to Headphones, basskicker reacts
    - udp telemetry in config Dirt Rally is "true"
    - Unicode language is set to English (US)

    I'm lost...
    Thanks in advance!
    Greetings Danny

    Hello!

    I'm having a bit of trouble with gamevibe.

    I have a motion sim as well. This works with simtools and use Iracing as my game. I get transducer activity when testing in gamevibe. I also get telemetry in tuning center. When I start to capture telemetry a small window pops up which I can press ok on. It says gamevibe3. After that I stop capture, but when I start to drive. No activity.

    Got questions: I've been testing without turning on power on my motion rigs controll boxes. I get a message when starting up game engine that I need to restart because some of my interfaces are missing. Is this a problem for gamevibe?

    I've read through this thread, but haven't been able to find a solution. Please help!

    Regards,

    Petro

    @yobuddy

    Hello man! Thank you for the software!!! Its been working great with my motion sim. Now I did as you told except on my menus I could choose "English(USA)". I assume it is the same as "united states" right?

    I was asked to restart computer. Did that. Loaded up the 3 apps, gamevibe, simengine and game manager. Started logging telemetry. Got two pop ups that said "gamevibe 4" and I also got the "gamevibe 3" pop up on next try. Last try telemetry logging stopped as soon as I started doing anything inside the sim. I draw this conclusion as rpm logg had stopped at 3500 aprox, and I had revved up to 9500. Telemetry logging stopped, but I could still press start/stop and save.

    If your getting this then I think the region is still wrong.
    This is something i hope to have fixed in the future, but for now please choose another regions etting.
    (It should be using a period as a decimal point)
    Take care,

    Ah ok, I think I understand what the problem is now. Away at work so can’t test now. Instead of trying to find a compatible region setting it might just work to just change the decimal symbol under formats -> additional settings.

    I think the region setting sets a few more things, but its worth a shot buddy.
    Take care,

    After years of using Simcommander I was shifting to GameVibe due to Beta testing. Since it's final, I can confirm that GameVibe is extremely handy and functional. One feature should be mentioned, it saves a lot of time: the Turn On’ button in the testing group box. Instead of going on with racing in the game you can almost pre tune the output. My congratulations for this great peace of software to @yobuddy
