October 25, 20214 yr Purchased Opus FSI for MSFS but it does not see my ac (yet). Default path does not work and pointing to the MSFS Folder or MSFS /Packages folder does not solve it. Anyone ?

October 25, 20214 yr I am watching this thread with interest, as I heard my boss say he wants to get a butt-kicker. I don't understand why... He doesn't even have MSFS!

He doesn't even have MSFS! Does your boss race sims? I heard this is really popular amongst the sim racing community! PS I’ll report back with my findings once installed, although may not be for another week or so by the time I actually get to it.

October 25, 20214 yr In case anyone cares which particular tactile forces are calculated from the Simconnect data stream.
October 25, 20214 yr Just ordered the Gamer 2 kit myself. Hope to have it before the weekend. Found this video that walks through setting it up (specifically aimed at MSFS) but it doesn't mention Opus FSI (or Opus MSFS). Instead, he mentions using a "legacy version" of Simconnect, SimShaker Sound Module, and SimShaker for Aviators. So I'm not sure if I need Opus MSFS or not. Will have to do more research.

Simconnect is a component of Microsoft flight sims dating way back. There are 3 legacy version, and 1 MSFS version. The legacy versions represent FSX, FSX SP1, and FSX: Acceleration expansion pack. The MSFS default version is installed when you install the MSFS SDK from the in sim dev toolbar. Just to clarify, Simshaker does not require Opus. From the link in my OP in this thread. Quote f4l09993 Sep '20 You need to install the legacy version of the SimConnect client. You can try this: http://www.fspassengers.com/?action=simconnect 346 or https://www.littlenavmap.org/downloads/SimConnect/ 218

The buttkicker does not need software it uses the sim sounds. If you want all the effects then you will need software. I don't use simshaker but i do use Opus.
