SimShaker - Wings v.1.14 published

Hi guys,
this version supports PC Version for Microsoft Windows of  AeroFly FS 2 and features 6 effects:
  • G-Force, 
  • Ground Bumps, 
  • Landing Gear, 
  • Speed Air Break,
  • Flaps Induced Shudders, 
  • Stall.
Talking about Flaps and Stall FXs. 
Aerofly FS 2 reports VFE,VS0, VS1 speeds. If you extract flaps at the speed higher than VFE the Flaps FX will be activated. And if you fly at the speed lower than reported VS0, VS1 speeds Stall FX will be activated, taking into account a plane configuration.

To get telemetry data from the game AFS2-SimShaker-Wings.dll  plugin will be automatically added into your Documents\Aerofly FS 2\external_dll folder.
To make this plugin work you need Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 or Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2017 package to be installed. You can download it from
Microsoft web-site.

There are some general GUI improvements:
  • Every single FX can be easily enabled/disabled by a checkbox along with its header. That may be very useful while fine tuning, when you might want to adjust FXs one by one. Using the checkbox you can keep untouched already adjusted gain sliders.
  • Every FX has its own activity indicator, that looks like an LED. If the FX becomes active LED becomes green. On my opinion that may improve general situation awareness.
  • More Options ( > ) buttons have slightly changed their locations due to adding new GUI elements.

  • Added Open Program Folder button to let you easily locate where the application is installed. This may be useful if you want to add the folder as exclusion to Windows Defender, for example. If you press the button the full path string also will be inserted into log text box.
  • Added Restore button, which may restore SimShaker - Wings.exe file if the latter was removed by Windows Defender from a backup copy.
Let's fly!
