    Hello,
    I believe many of you are using buttkickers, so I want to ask what are best settings to have in SimVibe for RaceRoom?
    I want mainly feel the curbs when I drive over them.
    I am using just single Buttkicker Gamer2 under the seat.
    Any suggestions?

    I’ve been playing with them and the best I’ve found is to turn the engine vibration to about -10db, and then tune the road bumps to about 90-95% and then tune amp volume from there. This is with one kicker in chassis mode.

    I don’t think you can currently get vibration from kerbs through the transducer like it comes though the wheel. I think it’s because the telemetry for most kerb effects (those not changing the suspension geometry), are output differently than simvibe expects. I read the FFB guide, and it says that the kerb effect in the FFB menu is a canned effect that is seperate from the suspension geometry data. I’m assuming simvibe isn’t programmed to receive this data - if it is, I haven’t found the effect it’s mapped to. Might be worth a visit to the simxperience forums to find out/ post the issue there.
