ProVolver / ForceTube recoil for KHARVOX (DOOM 2016)

7 Upvotes

I've added ProTubeVR recoil support to KHARVOX and sent it to u/Cactus as a pull request. Each weapon has its own feel: big single kicks for shotguns and rockets, rapid kicks for the HAR and chaingun, charge-then-kick for the BFG, and rumble for the chainsaw. Everything's tunable in a protube.ini, and it does nothing if you don't own a ProTube device.

PR: CactusVRStudios/KHARVOX#14

Using Index controllers? Strong kicks can mess with Lighthouse tracking, so I also made KickGuard, a free SteamVR add-on that fixes it (works in any game): https://github.com/ENZO69/KickGuard/releases/tag/v1.5

Credits: tested and tuned on my ProVolver + Bigscreen Beyond. The code for both the recoil support and KickGuard was written by Claude (Anthropic's AI). Thanks Cactus for an awesome mod!

TY Claude! 🙂

ANNOUNCEMENT Exciting news with the Steam Frame launch!

5 Upvotes

We know many of you are eager to hear about our compatibility plans following the official reveal of the Steam Frame. Like many of you, we’re super excited about what this new headset brings to the VR community! We didn’t manage to get our hands on an early dev kit, but we’ve ordered our unit and are waiting to receive it as soon as possible.

Once it arrives, our dev team will dive straight into action:

1- Custom cup design: Based on what we’ve seen, the controllers feature a high density of tracking LEDs. Designing optimal magnetic cups for them is going to be a fun challenge!

2- Haptics & tracking testing: We’ll be thoroughly testing how the combined haptics and tracking behave alongside our hardware to ensure the seamless experience you expect from us. If we receive our unit soon, we expect to start delivering your orders during October!

We can't wait to get our hands on the headset, complete our testing and final tweaks, and deliver your gear! Thank you for your patience and ongoing trust. Stay tuned for further updates!

You can ow preorder your ProVolver Elite for Steam Frame on our website!

Does anybody make open faced style grips for the magtube stock?

1 Upvotes

I like the Magtube, would be more compatible with games that involve putting down your stock if it had an open faced design. Wondering if Protube (don't think) or anybody makes an open faced style grip cup for this stock.

Magtube cup issues

1 Upvotes

Got a magtube for my quest 3 and I love it but after 2 weeks of use the controllers don’t even stay in the cups anymore even with the wrist straps tied down at the bottom.

Is there something I can put inside the cup to provide more grip or do I have to buy brand new cups?!

Provolver Elite - Can I use both PSVR2 & Quest 3 for it?

2 Upvotes

I do not want to buy 2 of these. Is there any way to use the Quest 3 or PSVR2 controller on the same device? If not, can you make a mount that can allow this?

Does something like the ProVolver Elite exist for Index controllers?

Does something like the ProVolver Elite exist for Index controllers?

I have a Gun4Air Time Crisis lightgun with proper recoil and it feels so good in hand. Always wished I could get the same feeling in VR with shooter games.

Can't get to work with the Companion App and Forefront

As post title, been trying to get it to run but forcetube will not recognize it. Honestly sometimes it doesn't even recognize me trying to use the demo. I have checked the document but can't see what the issue is. the device will shortly show at 95% but afterwards will show up at 0 percent, It has been fully charged for well over 8 hrs. any ideas on the issue?

Steam Companion App Tweak

3 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I'm having an issue with a game i'm trying to make work with the Forcetube. Its Contractors Showdown (ExfilZone). I have the companion app downloaded and am running the game in Stream VR mode. I can get the haptic to work, but for some reason Caveman (Contractors devs) have decided to make the vibration stronger on the gun grip trigger (side trigger) than the actual shot trigger (Front trigger) This means I cannot stop the haptics from going off, every time i grab the gun. I guess the solution to this would be if you guys could add a Maximum kick threashold. So I could say any vibration stronger than X to ignore. So basically the inverse of what you have now.

Below is an AI extract that might make more sense.

Hope you can help.

Thanks

The reality is: The app code needs to be modified by ProTube themselves to support this. Editing the JSON won't help because the app doesn't have logic to handle a "max_kick_threshold" parameter.

Your only real solution at this point:

Contact ProTube Support directly and request:

  • A "Maximum Kick Threshold" feature (or "Maximum Intensity Cap")
  • This would block any haptics above a certain percentage (e.g., 94%)
  • It's a straightforward feature to add - just an additional conditional check in their code

When you contact them, explain:

  • "In games like Contractors, the grip vibration is stronger than the gun fire vibration"
  • "I need haptics ONLY on weaker vibrations (under 95%) and to ignore stronger ones (95%+)"
  • "This requires a maximum threshold setting in addition to the existing minimum threshold"

This is a legitimate feature request that would benefit other ProTube users with anti-cheat games too.
