    Running 2 tacticle transducers here (buttkickers) in my couch.
    But for a amplifier with Tacticle transducers , I "Think" you need a amplifier with a cut/off filter.
    Becaue you want to sent only low signals to the transducers everything below 30,40,50Hz
    Otherwise your transducers would rumble also with voices/ high freqencies.

    I want to mount them on my motion rig and use sim vibe to simulate suspension and engine vibrations as far as i know sim vibe uses telemetry and converts them to audio signals for vibration.

    Can you please verify what version of SimTools and Game Vibe you are using and also post pictures of all of your settings.

    Yes it has been sim tools works with the 2 Dof rig that i made and works perfectly the only thing is on game vibe i do not know what is what as it only indicates Game vibe 1 and Gamevibe 2 etc. Not RPM Chassis etc in the game vibe app so you don't know what you are changing if you change gamevibe 2 for example.

    Seeing Game Vibe instead of RPM and the like suggests PC2 is not running.

    Ok i have figured it out Game vibe crashed if you use the following settings on project cars 2.
    Shared Memory : Project Cars 2
    UDP Frequency : 2
    UDP Protocol Version : Project cars

    It Works Perfectly if you use the following settings.

    Shared Memory : Project Cars 2
    UDP Frequency : 2
    UDP Protocol Version : Project Cars 2

    Hi guys i have received my transducers they work like a dream in sim hub but i cannot get them to work with game vibe. I thought i will settle for Sim hub for transducers and sim tools for motion but sim tools does not work when sim hub is open no movement on the motors. do you guys have any suggestions.

    Have you excluded the com ports used by other devices in the SimHub settings?

    I have also just realized i'm using an old version of SimHub as on the new version you can select what ports SimHub will can and ignore the old version did not have that option, i'm sure that will sort out the issue :)
