<motion_platform>
<dbox enabled = "true" />
<udp enabled = "true" extradata = "3" ip = "127.0.0.1" port = "20777" delay = "1" />
<custom_udp enabled = "false" nom_fichier = "paquet_data.xml" ip = "127.0.0.1" port = "20777" delay = "1" />
<fanatec enabled = "true" pedalVibrationScale = "1.0" wheelVibrationScale = "1.0" ledTrueForGearsFalseForSpeed = "true" />
</ motion_platform>

Please change port number from 20777 (default value) to 29373
and could you please delete your previous post to keep the thread compact ?, dirt rally 1 is not relevant.

Will have to look into this as well, my Jetseat have stopped working in DR2.0 since they added VR.

Okay so I tried switching those numbers, but didn't work, still dosn't work. It says Listening after Dirt Rally 2.0 in the log but then nothing.
Here is how mine looks:

Please compare your sting with this one from SimShaker - Wheels User Guide
<udp enabled="true" extradata="3" ip="127.0.0.1" port="29373" delay="1" />
I wouldn't say they are identical.

 

[Heppsan]

Hm, no they are not.. Weird, it worked and must have mached before the VR update..
Will see if I have time to try this tomorrow.

Problem solved for me
Dirt rally 2.0 is OK

 

[Heppsan]

So got it working, but then my NLR V3 Motion platform stopped working, somehow they seem to conflict in DR2.0?
Never had this issue in any other sim.

 

[=Andre=]

That depends on which way you changed your DR2.0 configuration file.
I don't have a Motion platform, but I think DR2.0 still supports multiple UDP transmitters.
If so, you must have a valid UDP transmitter config string for every device.

 

[Heppsan]

Yeah, but a bit weird, cause it worked before the last update, and works in every other sim.

Hello Andre
I noticed that sim-shaker 3.9 consumes about 20% of cpu under raceroom while it consumes only 2% to 3% under dirt rally 2.0 or rfactor 2.
Is this natural ?

 

[=Andre=]

Hello Herve,
Thank you for the feedback.I will check it on my end.

 

[herve45]

I restored an old version of my windows system and the problem disappeared under windows
under raceroom, I am now at 3 ~ 4%
I did not understand where the problem came from
Sorry for the inconvenience

Hello Andre
I can not get simshaker working with wrc 8
Is there any particular manipulation?

 

[herve45]

No telemetry on this game

Hey Andre, my simshaker works perfectly in Assetto Corsa when in the car, but then it keeps this low vibration going during repays also. How can I get it to turn off during replays?

 

[=Andre=]

Hi nicka117,
if you use JetSeat, there is a button on control unit labeled "motors", it stops vibrations once pressed.

 

[nicka117]

I'm only using bass shakers.

 

[=Andre=]

Is that really a problem? I like it. Some users asked me to add it.

WRC 7 was D-Box compatible. What about WRC 8 ?

 

[nicka117]

It not a big deal, I just thought it might be a bug or something.
