2023.06.02 20:39 _Patrox_ Hello, I'm working to grow my community to try and change my apartments from privately owned to resident owned

Just as the title says I'm working here in Texas to try and start a long term process to make our home eventually much more habitable and ecologically friendly. This long process started when I just wanted a sense of community which was sorely lacking where I am. Now it's gotten to the point I find out the massively broken and gross state my entire complex is in. I'm not like most who just want out however, I'm solid and I'm gonna do what I can. I've been going around asking for help on the private fb group I made and now we are gonna set up block parties where they cant touch us to get more people out and talking. I have been given notice that some of my attempts to organize have gotten u der the skin of the owner and this the property manager as well. I know I'm gonna be watched but it's okay, I know the line they set and for now that will be respected. I'm not scared, just pissed off. The eventual plan is to figure out how to save up some money with the community to eventually buy the property. That's the ideal plan and if we can get past this major hurdle, we can be well on our way to addressing the major sanitation problems, improve the shared greenery and removes major parts of unnecessary asphalt to grow more native plants. We can have a habitable space that we all got a say on and is heard. We can fix the problems with waiting. I got a good feeling about this and just needed a space to talk about it so thank you.

2023.06.02 20:39 bullwinklemoose91 The ending of game of thrones is irreparably terrible — my thoughts

I was late to GoT. I began watching in 2018 and watched season 8 live. I’ve been rewatching it again.
Season 6 and the seasons before set up the greatest stories in television. Seeing the alliances begin to form on Cerseis side and Danys side was so cool. Hearing Dany and her advisors strategize how they are going to take kings landing and the iron throne, then defeat the White Walkers had me more excited for TV than I’d ever been. As everyone knows, the reality of season 8 was some of the worst TV and story writing ever among big budget productions
I looked past it because I was so excited for HotD and I have no doubts it will be amazing. However, GoT was so bad that however cool any spin-offs will be, naturally they do not have the potential that GoT had with the war on two fronts and between the living and the dead.
I could be wrong (and I hope that I am) but with the white walkers being destroyed with the night king gone, I doubt that any series will be as cool as GoT could have been.

Our top community room picks for May!

https://preview.redd.it/vfq2m6klfn3b1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=c51ad679c18de6887eab45bb50ef734aa7ae7ea2

June has arrived!

It's another new month, which can only mean one thing! Time to look back at everything that happened last month. In case you missed it, we introduced a brand-new recurring section called Meet The Builders. In this first edition of Meet The Builders, we interviewed room builder Zesty Mordant. Of course, a whole bunch of excellent community rooms got released as well! So without further ado, let's dive into our monthly picks for May!
(PS. We have a bunch of exciting new announcements coming up soon, so be sure to stay tuned! 👀)

Who wants to play pool? 🎱

https://preview.redd.it/kiaqu4drfn3b1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=965aaa76ca1e1a1faa82b9f492b8772e01095915
Who doesn't love to play some rounds of pool? Well, as luck would have it, there's a pool tournament going on at The Red Lion! The only problem is the billiard balls, as well as the key for the Old English Pub have gone missing. In this room by builder Mocklate Donkey, it's up to you to find the missing items and get the tournament going!

An enigmatic escape!

https://preview.redd.it/g1vubvaufn3b1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=6a372bf7e517a30017fd2ef4fc57e4270c88eba6
Enigmas of the Nile by GG3L is an incredibly polished looking room, set in an ancient Egyptian temple. This room stands out for its fun and intuitive puzzle design that probably won't have you doubting your puzzle skills for too long, On top of that, it's always fun to explore some ancient ruins, right? 😉

Time to go back to school! 🏰

https://preview.redd.it/7n0ed2mxfn3b1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=528610c3333b0d712550e4af6e011200e4dc51bc
Room builder GetOffMyBeard has become a bit of a household name within our community and his latest room 4 Privet Drive is a very interesting one! For this room, GetOffMyBeard took a very different approach by locking your character in place to recreate the feeling of a point 'n click adventure game! Before returning back to Hogwarts, you'll need to gather your stuff and place them in your trunk. Definitely give this one a try!

A remake of three classic rooms! ✨

https://preview.redd.it/z6x6hvj0gn3b1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=6197c45b4291c906aa520777f72cda942053064f
Our in-game Room Editor has gone through a numerous amount of updates since launch, providing our community with more and more options to optimize their room. Recently, we've been seeing several 'remakes' of classic community rooms pop up and that's exactly what Brengo did for The Scientist's Breakthrough! This room serves as both a remake and a compilation of Brengo's first room series, reimagined as a continuous adventure. If you've never played these before or want to see how they have changed, this one is an absolute must-play!

More awesome stuff coming up! 👀

And that's it for May! As always, we hope you'll enjoy these monthly picks as much as we did! Want to talk to some of the room builders from our community or just share your enthusiasm for Escape Simulator? Be sure to join us on our official Discord or on our subreddit. We hope to see you there!

Could anyone please help me learn how to set up my Nehza to be a "nuker" frame? I've asked several people in the past but they were...not kind people. I would love help with this one so that I can then practice on all my others. I'm finally close to unlocking the Steel Path but I don't have high enough damage output at all. Thanks in advance!

2023.06.02 20:37 cte Programming Cookbook "recipe" ideas...

I'm thinking about creating a (sort-of) blog that is a collection of non-trivial coding cookbook "recipes" – concise, clear, and practical examples of code that address specific programming challenges or tasks.
I'm looking for your suggestions on which topics, technologies, frameworks or features to cover.
I have a set of things in mind based on what I've built recently, but I'm trying to gauge how well that lines up with the interests of this community.
Thanks!

2023.06.02 20:36 incomprehensibilitys How to be a Mormon In 73 easy steps. .. Salt Lake Tribune

  1. Never use the word “Mormon” in describing anything Mormon. Doing so is a win for Satan.
  2. Drink no coffee, tea or alcohol.
  3. Eat meat sparingly. (Actually, scratch that. It’s in the Word of Wisdom, but no one pays attention to it anyway, so bring on the burgers. You’re going to need to keep your strength up for keeping all the other rules.)
  4. Eat a lot of vegetables and fruits in their season. And, yes, funeral potatoes totally count as a vegetable.
  5. Go to church every Sunday, even when you’re on vacation. God gives you extra credit for this.
  6. Accept any callings offered by the bishop. (But see also No. 40.)
  7. Attend the temple once a month at the very least. Always keep a valid temple recommend.
  8. Do your monthly visiting teaching/home teaching. Er, ministering.
  9. Send out a homemade holiday gift and card/letter to neighbors.
  10. Never use a curse word. If you need a library of faux swear options, watch “Napoleon Dynamite” multiple times and absorb its vocabulary.
  11. Do family history work (genealogy) for your ancestors.
  12. Show up for moving other people in and out of your ward. Lift with your legs! And keep plenty of ibuprofen on hand.
  13. Sign up to bring meals to the sick or otherwise needy. These must be home-cooked. No KFC allowed!
  14. Feed the missionaries — hefty portions. You don’t want emaciated elders or sisters around.
  15. Volunteer to clean the church/temple when the sign-up sheet goes around. Remember to wear clothes you can get dirty in. You’re keeping the church clean, not yourself.
  16. Attend ward activities like the Christmas party, the summer swim party, back-to-school parties, etc.
  17. Hold a weekly Family Home Evening with your children. No crying allowed, from either parents or children!
  18. Teach your children to do chores happily. (Good luck with this.)
  19. Be grateful, even for your trials. Trials are really blessings in disguise. Also, they make great fodder for tearful testimonies in the future.
  20. Keep a year’s supply of food in your basement, even if you never eat any of it. The family with the most wheat wins.
  21. Do regular disaster planning with your kids, from fire drills to flood plans. You can never be too prepared for the end of days.
  22. Know how to make important knots with rope. No one knows why this matters, but it does.
  23. Learn how to build a fire without a match.
  24. Know the stories of your pioneer ancestors, if you have them, to tell your children on Pioneer Day. (Don’t worry about the gruesome details — kids will love them!)
  25. Invite nonmembers to attend church meetings and activities. Repeatedly.
  26. Read the Sunday school and auxiliary lesson each week, so you can participate in lessons. But don’t monopolize the teacher, even if you’re the only one who prepared.
  27. Figure out how to use beans in fudge making and wheat in chili-making.
  28. Help with local fundraising activities for the youths, like allowing them to put a flag in your yard even if they break your sprinkler system.
  29. God expects you to be happy.
  30. Play “wholesome” games as a family. (Yes, Monopoly counts. The prophet Ezra Taft Benson taught that capitalism is holy, so it’s best to start ’em young.)
  31. Donate to Sub for Santa or other Christmas charities as a ward/stake.
  32. But don’t tell the children that Santa isn’t real.
  33. Sing in the ward choir, even if you don’t sing well, because you can make a “joyful sound.”
  34. Do NOT NOT NOT have sex before marriage — no making out, either. In fact, just try not to think about sex at all.
  35. Root for BYU against the University of Utah — “bleed blue.”
  36. Get your daughters to babysit for poor ward members for free.
  37. Go on weekly dates with your spouse.
  38. Don’t steal from the ward’s library or lost and found. (Return your crayons and chalk, dammit!)
  39. Repent whenever you accidentally use a swear word, as I just did in violation of Rule No. 38.
  40. Friends don’t let friends get called into the nursery.
  41. Toddlers get only Cheerios in sacrament meeting. (No Capn’ Crunch or you’ll make the other toddlers jealous.)
  42. Submit Primary children’s drawings as art for the ward bulletin, even if you can’t tell what it is.
  43. Eat “better than sex” chocolate cake.
  44. Drink sparkle punch.
  45. Participate in Eagle Scout projects no matter how stupid you think they are.
  46. Have a favorite church hymn — preferably the same as one of the prophet’s.
  47. Watch out for Gadianton robbers. Also, MLM schemes.
  48. Know how to cook a marshmallow properly to make s’mores. They’re practically a Mormon invention.
  49. Be able to make seven kinds of Jell-O salad, at least one with carrots.
  50. Save seats in a theateamusement park where it’s not allowed, but do it politely.
  51. Make sure you know how to make funeral potatoes. (Hint: with cornflakes!)
  52. Drink root beer or milk if you are ever forced to be in a bar.
  53. Turn regularly to sugar, in huge quantities, as your only vice.
  54. Keep all church buildings at refrigerator temperatures year-round because men are in full suits and ties.
  55. Drive to church no matter how close you live.
  56. Go on a mission the moment you hit the requisite birthday.
  57. Don’t go to the grocery store on the Sabbath. If you absolutely must, though, do it in another town so no one from your ward sees you.
Women 58. Do feminine crafts like knitting, crocheting and quilting.
  1. Learn how to bake bread, cook meals cheaply, and can foods. Bonus points if you grow the foods in your own garden.
  2. Wear makeup, because even an old barn looks good with a little paint on it.
  3. Do not nurse at church except in the mother’s lounge in the women’s bathroom, which will also be where children’s dirty diapers are changed and disposed of. But modesty!
  4. Attend monthly Relief Society meetings.
  5. Decorate your house with Relief Society kitsch.
  6. No porn shoulders.
  7. Don’t slam your purse or talk in a shrill tone.
  8. Be able to sew pioneer bonnets, dresses, aprons, etc., in bulk at a day’s notice.
  9. Don’t chew gum in church (according to my mother — it’s not ladylike).
  10. You can have up to one ear piercing per God’s instructions. Getting double-pierced ears is beyond the pale, so don’t push it.
Men 69. Sacrament must be administered and passed by young men in white shirts, only using their right hands. The patterns may vary from ward to ward, but are secret and only for men to know.
  1. Do not shed tears in any scenario ever, except during testimony meeting, when it is 100% acceptable for you to cry.
  2. Don’t abuse your children or your wife — except with dad jokes, which you may pile on freely.
  3. Do play church ball hard enough to get injured or injure someone else. Unless someone winds up in the hospital, the Spirit hasn’t spoken strongly enough.
  4. Facial hair was fine for Jesus but not for you. The clean-cut look is definitely the Mormon, er, Latter-day Saint look. Oh, and man buns are flat out.

2023.06.02 20:35 vinegarxhoney Curious if I'm 3V or 3F

So I'm having a hell of a time confirming between 3V and 3F. I'm almost positive it's 3F, but I want to make sure I'm not just choosing that over 3V because 3V sounds so damn miserable.
Points for 3V:
-Planning my future/setting goals is not a strong point. I decided in August that I'd be going back to school for a job in the medical field (MUCH more money than I'm making now in retail, and only a two year certification/degree/whatever). Thinking about actually getting into the program gives me pretty intense anxiety, since I'm pretty sure it's not something I'll actually be at all passionate about, and it's a very competitive program. The money is definitely the driving motivation. I have a backup plan to start studying coding in my spare time, though I haven't brought myself to actually DO it yet
-I don't really set goals, specifically. I worked with a guy who set actual New Year's resolutions and worked towards them, and it just seemed so odd? Like, have general goals (like mine was to better my mental health, get involved in hobbies that interest me), but what you want and your circumstances are going to change, so just let what happens happen?
-I do get insecure and worried about how people perceive my work ethic, then end up overdoing it and stressing that me not being perfect will lead to me being branded as "lazy" and get fired. I've gotten bonuses in each job I've had essentially for having good work ethic, but it's still always a worry
Points for 3F:
-Cluttered areas STRESS ME OUT. At work if things are not exactly where they should be, I get overwhelmed and can't concentrate until I put things right.
-The neuroses and miserable insecurity around having a body (leading into the next point). I had a lot of things like allergies, asthma, eczema, etc growing up, as well as weight issues, all of which contributed to me being wildly uncomfortable with myself and my body. It sometimes even goes so far as to feel physically trapped, like I'm stuck in this oozing body with no way out (felt like that all the time when the eczema was flaring horribly).
-I do a lot of body modifications (tattoos, piercings, stretched ears, then temporary things like eyelash lifts and hair dyeing) because they help me feel better about having a body since I get some control over it, and I get to have things I like on it
-Cleaning and cooking are garbage. I'll do the barest minimum I can, and barely that. It's wild to me to listen to people who spend hours every day doing either, and schedules for cleaning? That they follow?!
-I do feel like a child in regards to anything practical
Overall, I'm pretty sure I'm 3F 4V since in general, I don't really mind being a "follower" (as not flattering as that is to say), I'm okay accepting being wrong (too readily a lot tbh), and I don't aspire to leadership (not the only reasons, but I feel like they're pretty significant). I've watched some videos and 3F really resonated, but I do recognize that this system is hard for me to grasp.
I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts!

2023.06.02 20:35 ProfessionalFun192 S2M33 appreciation post

Not really about the plot itself, but I've taken it upon myself to make a list of every single reference to Homer's Odyssey in the mission, some of which might just be me reaching:
The most explicit references are in the subtitle '5's Odyssey' and in the transmission title 'practically an odyssey', which Janine says aloud.
The title, 'Athena' - on Odysseus' journey home, Athena was the goddess that helped him e.g. she calmed the winds, made him appear taller and stronger, etc
The runner's 'big feast tonight' is reminiscent of the Suitors, who stayed in Odysseus' palace and feasted whilst he was away.
Runner 5 has 'incurred the wrath of an immortal' - just like Odysseus incurred the wrath of Poseidon.
The calypso music that plays both references the sirens Odysseus passes and Calypso, the nymph that keeps him captive on her island for 7 years.
Maxine points out 'it looks like there's fire burning' - in the Odyssey, approaching a 'wisp of smoke' repeatedly means bad news.
The zombie that's 7 foot tall and wears an eyepatch is comparable to the cyclops, Polyphemus. He's killed by a log spear through the eye, like how Odysseus blinds Polyphemus with a hot stake through the eye to escape.
Mr Antiphates shares his name with the king of Laestrygones, a tribe of cannibals Odysseus encounters.
The golden cow statue is probably a reference to the cattle of the sun god Hyperion - Odysseus' crew killed and ate them, which was what doomed them to die.
The pig Runner 5 comes across is an allusion to Circe, the witch who transformed men into pigs.
O Brother Where Art Thou and Ulysses 31 are both retellings of the Odyssey.
When 5 arrives back to Abel, Simon doesn't initially recognise them - Odysseus came back to Ithaca disguised as a beggar, so he isn't initally recognised either.
Sam comments that some days feel like they last 10 years - the time it took Odysseus to get home once the Trojan War ended.
The archery contest is a reference to how Odysseus proved his identity when he returned - by stringing his old bow (which nobody else was able to) and shooting an arrow through a row of axe handles.
I may have missed some but it just goes to show how the writers really did their research with the mission!

2023.06.02 20:35 Robertsmania AVSpeechSynthesisVoice.speechVoices() - different behavior on Mac (Designed for iPhone) and iOS. Also, MANY errors checking .audioFileSettings properties.

We recently started working on getting an iOS app to work on Macs with Apple Silicon as a "Designed for iPhone" app and are having issues with speech synthesis.
Specifically, voices retuned by AVSpeechSynthesisVoice.speechVoices() do not all work on the Mac. When we build an utterance and attempt to speak, the synthesizer falls back on a default voice and says some very odd text about voice parameters (that is not in the utterance speech text) before it does say the intended speech.
Here is some sample code to setup the utterance and speak:
func speak(_ text: String, _ settings: AppSettings) { let utterance = AVSpeechUtterance(string: text) if let voice = AVSpeechSynthesisVoice(identifier: settings.selectedVoiceIdentifier) { utterance.voice = voice print("speak: voice assigned \(voice.audioFileSettings)") } else { print("speak: voice error") } utterance.rate = settings.speechRate utterance.pitchMultiplier = settings.speechPitch do { let audioSession = AVAudioSession.sharedInstance() try audioSession.setCategory(.playback, mode: .default, options: .duckOthers) try audioSession.setActive(true, options: .notifyOthersOnDeactivation) self.synthesizer.speak(utterance) return } catch let error { print("speak: Error setting up AVAudioSession: \(error.localizedDescription)") } } 
When running the app on the Mac, this is the kind of error we get with "com.apple.eloquence.en-US.Rocko" as the selectedVoiceIdentifier:

Attempting to speak again with fallback identifier: com.apple.voice.compact.en-US.Samantha 
When we run AVSpeechSynthesisVoice.speechVoices(), the "com.apple.eloquence.en-US.Rocko" is absolutely in the list but fails to speak properly.
Notice that the line:
print("speak: voice assigned \(voice.audioFileSettings)")
Shows:
speak: voice assigned [:]
The .audioFileSettings being empty seems to be a common factor for the voices that do not work properly on the Mac.
For voices that do work, we see this kind of output and values in the .audioFileSettings:
speak: voice assigned ["AVFormatIDKey": 1819304813, "AVLinearPCMBitDepthKey": 16, "AVLinearPCMIsBigEndianKey": 0, "AVLinearPCMIsFloatKey": 0, "AVSampleRateKey": 22050, "AVLinearPCMIsNonInterleaved": 0, "AVNumberOfChannelsKey": 1]

So we added a function to check the .audioFileSettings for each voice returned by AVSpeechSynthesisVoice.speechVoices():
//The voices are set in init(): var voices = AVSpeechSynthesisVoice.speechVoices() ... func checkVoices() { DispatchQueue.global().async { [weak self] in guard let self = self else { return } let checkedVoices = self.voices.map { ($0.0, $0.0.audioFileSettings.count) } DispatchQueue.main.async { self.voices = checkedVoices } } } 
That looks simple enough, and does work to identify which voices have no data in their .audioFileSettings. But we have to run it asynchronously because on a real iPhone device, it takes more than 9 seconds and produces a tremendous amount of error spew to the console.

2023.06.02 20:34 beanssssse Cat regurgitation

Hi all,
My cat (11yo female, 11lbs) seems to have a regurgitation problem but only under a specific set of conditions - if she hasn’t eaten all night and then eats her breakfast, she’ll regurgitate it almost immediately. If she has free access to dry food all the time, she doesn’t regurgitate any meals.
For example, last night she got wet food at 8pm and then wasn’t fed until 7am. As soon as she ate her 7am (wet food) meal, she regurgitated it (within 5 minutes). Her dry food bowl was empty all night as I’m trying to reduce her ability to free feed.
Is it because of how spaced out her food is at night? This has been happening for a couple of months now, but it is only when she does not have free access to dry food at night (I have been giving her free access some nights and the regurgitation is immediately resolved until the free feeding goes away).
Has anyone else experienced this with their cats? She’s on prescribed sensitive digestion food and has been for years.
TIA!

Production companies : Warner Bros. Pictures.


At San Diego Comic-Con in July, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson had other people raising eyebrows when he said that his long-awaited superhero debut in Spider Man Across the Spider Verse would be the beginning of “a new era” for the DC Extended Universe naturally followed: What did he mean? And what would that kind of reset mean for the remainder of DCEU's roster, including Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, the rest of the Justice League, Suicide Squad, Shazam and so on.As


Spider Man Across the Spider Verse neared theaters, though, Johnson clarified that statement in a recent sit-down with Yahoo Entertainment (watch above).


“I feel like this is our opportunity now to expand the DC Universe and what we have in Spider Man Across the Spider Verse, which I think is really cool just as a fan, is we introduce five new superheroes to the world,” Johnson tells us. Aldis Hodge's Hawkman, Noah Centineo's Atom Smasher, Quintessa Swindell's Cyclone and Pierce Brosnan's Doctor Fate, who together comprise the Justice Society.) “One anti-hero.” (That would be DJ's Spider Man Across the Spider Verse.)


“And what an opportunity. The Justice Society pre-dated the Justice League. So opportunity, expand out the universe, in my mind… all these characters interact. That's why you see in Spider Man Across the Spider Verse, we acknowledge everyone: Batman , Superman , Wonder Woman, Flash, we acknowledge everybody.There's also some Easter eggs in there, too.So that's what I meant by the resetting.Maybe 'resetting' wasn't a good term.only


one can claim to be the most powerful superhero .And Johnson, when gently pressed, says it's his indestructible, 5,000-year-old Kahndaqi warrior also known as Teth-Adam, that is the most powerful superhero in any universe, DC, Marvel or otherwise


. "By the way, it's not hyperbole because we made the movie."And we made him this powerful.


There's nothing so wrong with “Spider Man Across the Spider Verse” that it should be avoided, but nothing—besides the appealing presence of Dwayne Johnson—that makes it worth rushing out to see. spectacles that have more or less taken over studio filmmaking, but it accumulates the genre's—and the business's—bad habits into a single two- hour-plus package, and only hints at the format's occasional pleasures. “Spider Man Across the Spider Verse” feels like a place-filler for a movie that's remaining to be made, but, in its bare and shrugged-off sufficiency, it does one positive thing that, if nothing else, at least accounts for its success: for all the churning action and elaborately jerry-rigged plot, there's little to distract from the movie's pedestal-like display of Johnson, its real-life superhero.


It's no less numbing to find material meant for children retconned for adults—and, in the process, for most of the naïve delight to be leached out, and for any serious concerns to be shoehorned in and then waved away with dazzle and noise. Spider Man Across the Spider Verse” offers a moral realm that draws no lines, a personal one of simplistic stakes, a political one that suggests any interpretation, an audiovisual one that rehashes long-familiar tropes and repackages overused devices for a commercial experiment that might as well wear its import as its title. When I was in Paris in 1983, Jerry Lewis—yes, they really did love him there—had a new movie in theaters. You're Crazy, Jerry."Spider Man Across the Spider Verse " could be retitled 'You're a Superhero, Dwayne'—it's the marketing team's PowerPoint presentation extended to feature length.


In addition to being Johnson's DC Universe debut, “Spider Man Across the Spider Verse” is also notable for marking the return of Henry Cavill's Superman. The cameo is likely to set up future showdowns between the two characters, but Hodge was completely unaware of it until he saw the film.


“They kept that all the way under wraps, and I didn't know until maybe a day or two before the premiere,” he recently said Spider Man Across the Spider Verse Wakanda Forever (2022) FULLMOVIE ONLINE

2023.06.02 20:34 sepruda How to use Buttkicker Gamer Pro with DCS

Hi, after a long consideration I finally decided to get a Buttkicker, on the recommendation of many in here.
I am however struggling to set it up properly, I have had it working sort of, with the HaptiConnect software using the new DCS mode, which worked ok. But reading that the SimShaker Aviator and SimShaker Sound Module surpasses the native software, I decided to buy a license for that. And now I'm not sure how to go about setting it up properly, I sometimes lack some sound elements (only voice/no voice) and sometimes lack the rumbling.
In my setup I use the HP Reverb G2 VR HMD and as mentioned I have the Buttkicker Gamer Pro with amplifier. I only have an onboard soundcard at the moment.
According to this post an external soundcard is not required, and the poster recommends using both the HaptiConnect and Simshaker software.
My current configuration which doesn't really work
- The Buttkicker is connected via USB and I also have the Y cable go into my sound output on my machine (though the MB port in the back didn't work, so plugged it in on top) - In the SimShaker software setting, I have the output mode to SOUND and to automatically start the Sound Module. I see the DCS modules I've tried to fly with, having this open. - In Sound Module I have selected my onboard soundcard as Dedicated Sound Card. Rest is default - In HaptiConnect ButtKicker Input is connected, the outputs are the Buttkicker and my G2 headphones - My Windows sound selection in my onboard sound card - I leave all apps running when starting DCS - In DCS I've tried selecting both the G2 as audio and the onboard as audio
Really confused what to select for all of these options, I hope someone can give me or point me to good step by step tutorial.
