    Motion platform
    Hi, recently purchased a pagnian platform for motion, i think it has two scn but really have no idea. The controller is from motionsystems.eu
    It comes with a complete software for a lot of games pre configured and its fantastic. But my problem comes to games non-compatible,as elite dangerous, kart racing pro, NFS shift and city car driving.
    Would like to play that games and i see that simtools have plugins for it, Could i use that program to play that games with my platform? thanks for your help!

    I could be wrong, but from the pagnian sim plateform video it sounds like they are using servo motors and not SCNs. Also they seem to move too slow for a SCN.

    Ok . I´ve contacted with them.They told me that Simtools isnt compatible but no problem because the software that they provide me could make custom profiles. He passed me a guide on how-to but making it of scripts and plugins seems a lot of hard to me.
    But it brings a directinput plugin that make a little the job,when i configure to race games if i move my wheel to the left the platform to the right,and viceversa.
    My wheel is separated from the pedals because they are DIY so i have a problem that i must solve (sure i can do it) So well i can integrate movement even an arcade game (initial d).
    But dont know how to do to bring effects like bumps in other games (as krp,shift,etc), also has to investigate how to make it on elite dangerous as would like to vibrate or bump when im gettin shooted.
    I dont know if they are slow but like a lot,i have a lot of work to do because the seat now raises 15 cms and have to accomodate my entire cockpit.
    If anyone want to help me making profiles or scripts or have one platform like mine, dont doubt to pm me
    Thanks for the help anyway!
