    Hey,
    i just purchased the Buttkicker Gamer Plus. I have it attached to a Next Level Racing GTTrack rig.
    Could someone pls share their config/settings (including the amp settings) ?
    I'm looking for a good baseline cfg to start from.
    I tried their HaptiConnect software with a AMS2 plugin, but there's just too much going on there in the default profile (and for some reason it seems like e.g. "wheel slip/lock" does not work if it's the only effect enabled).
    I tried SimHub and it feels more reponsive, but after playing around with it for a bit today i seem to either be getting way too much information or not enough useful information :(

    Thanks!

    I had the same combination with Next Level GT Track and Buttkicker Gamer. I could never find a perfect setting, maybe because there wasn't enough with 1 buttkicker and only selectively. Less is usually better than too many settings because overlapping occurs. I switched to the Next Level Racing HF8 vibration mat and am now very happy with it because I can control it left and right and on the butt and back

    @Danielkart thanks for you input :)
    I played around with the settings a bit more, but ended up returning the it. It wasn't what i expected.
    Thought it'd provide that "extra something", but actually it was just too "noisy" (literally as well), annoying and was interferring with whatever feedback i was getting from the wheel base.

    IMO the current Default + FFB is so informative (come to think of it: it actually seems to provide a very slight buttkicker-ish vibration for the rig [at least the GTTrack]) that at best the Buttkicker was just duplicating some of the effect, albeit with a mssive delay ;)

    Do you find the HF8 comfortable on the GTTrack seat ?

    I can recommend the HF8, it's super comfortable and perfect for this GT Track. You can't feel anything from the speakers in the mat. It is also super quiet and can hardly be heard, the buttkicker was extremely loud and very unpleasant
    ;)
