    Hi,
    I wonder if we could have a plugin for a Buttkicker, a bit like X-Sim, which works with the sound card?

    Been looked at but with the release of the SimTools to public and now the GameDash we have been hoe under a little, it is possible. We need to pick this back up as the one who was going to look into it produced nothing. If the interest from the community is there for something we will strive to produce it.

    Hello ericRacer!

    If you want to participate into the thinking and contribute (it's VB but not VB.Net) :
    http://www.xsimulator.net/community...brary-for-buttkicker-support.4823/#post-46048
    here is a post with the results of some work or research from people including "the one who produced nothing"...

    One fonctionnality should be selecting the second sound card dedicated to buttkicker from the soft:
    I found that DirectSound from DirectX is a good way... but I didn't succeeded in compiling the DX version in VB 2010 express...
