Overall it wasn't any different then iracings built in lfe or the one from sim hub. I spent an hour tweaking and trying to get more details but ultimately just went back to iracings lfe. I also had a weird feedback vibration even when I had closed out and had nothing running. Only with hapticonnect, no others
I understand this software has protections to keep the amp from overheating. However, I'm willing to give that up for software like SimHaptic which has a lot more to offer especially helicopter sims
The software works really well when downloaded to my PC and the buttkicker hooked up to my stereo subwoofer output. That is all you have to do to get the full sound experience of your favorite aircraft.
Needs a feature to cutoff music feedback so the great vibes only function for airplane operations.
Hapticonnect works with Windows 10 and 11. We're expanding our list of supported games on a regular basis.
All of them! Using Gamer PLUS, Gamer PRO, the older Gamer2 or Sim Kit, HaptiConnect works with them. Any ButtKicker product is more immersive with HaptiConnect.
