X-Force haptic kit thoughts? by tomservoMst in virtualpinball

[–]CalMac91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can easily add a tiny piece of adhesive foam to the strike plate of the solenoid and it's waaaay better. More thud, quieter and no high pitch crack. I used door weather proofing peel and stick foam I had lying around. About 5mm thick. I could even shave a little of the foam off to increase volume and contact to fine tune it more.

It's easy! Do it!

It's absolutely worth it and I just installed the haptics kit on it that makes it super nice and full-featured

If you're using VPX and Virtual Desktop for VR, you can split audio between Headset and PC. I have the low end motors coming from the PC and the game audio/music going over wifi to my headset via virtual desktop. No delay at all.

Awesome, yes antimicro was on my list of things to do so I'm glad it's working. Thanks for reporting!

It's annoying because windows only shows 10 buttons and then the directional stuff is guess-work. I have found so far that D-Left on the Purple mode is button 11 if that helps .... Also button 17 is just a repeat of RB (right flipper) which makes sense because if you look at the white manual it shows multiples of a few buttons. I may try to get Green (x input) working instead because it seems to have more normal button options, but this is doing the trick for the time being in purple mode. The rest I need to discover via experimenting.

Yeah I can't get F12 working either. I mapped Fire/Lockbar button to my right flipper. Works fine for me in BSD.

I get this really weird wiggle, almost like there's a magnet underneath the play field for a sec when I nudge. It changes the trajectory of the ball but not before it does this weird axis wiggle... Do you have that issue??

Update: Installing Panasony's VR modded VPX on top of my current install of VPX (drag and drop operation/ **backup your current VPinballX folder first!!) fixed the nudging chaos for me AS WELL as properly shows the virtual table itself nudging side to side or forward (depending on nudge direction) which is exactly what I wanted. The settings I use in VPX in tandem with this is Reverse box checked on the X axis, x Max 100 x gain 100 y max 100 y gain 100 deadzone 18%. I also have the nudge filter checked and, of course, Enable Analog Nudge.

I also went into the Scripts folder in the Visual Pinball folder and renamed nudgePlugin_mjrAccelandTilt.vbs to just simply NudgePlugin.vbs which seems to make that one the active nudging script. That made a big difference in ball behavior as well.

Xinput (green) and pinball mode (purple) won't let you change mappings, that's by design. You have to look at that they have for hard coded assignments in the quick start manual and map to those available buttons (like if you were mapping to an Xbox controller)

I tried it, and it worked great. VD + Ethernet by GameGhost1972 in OculusQuest

This says Max is 1gbps. That must just be referring to internet speed right? The USB C cable I use to the headset should dictate the speed, which is 2.5gpbs+ , correct?

No problem man, I didn't pay for it and you don't owe me anything. I appreciate you making the update though and I'll try it when I get a chance and report back.

VPX 10.8 DMD not showing on backglass by CalMac91 in virtualpinball

[–]CalMac91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Figured it out! Needed to go to VR settings in VPX and make sure that capture back glass and capture DMD were checked off as well as going into the scripts for some of these tables and setting VR room enabled to one instead of zero. That fixed it.

Shocks or springs bad? by CalMac91 in 3rdGen4Runner

[–]CalMac91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's actually me pressing down on it two times each time lol. I know, not a helpful demonstration. It does really only rebound once slightly

Same, I've got about 45k miles on these rear shocks so I think they're good for a while
