    Can you explain what you are trying to do with the data?

    Something like the existing joystick plugin can save a sequence of data, but there is currently no way to play it. Once SimTools 2.0 is released work will commence on built in recording and playback functionality.

    I already have the way to control 6dof mini with Roll, Pitch, Yaw, X, Y, Z by using Controller(QT).
    Now all i want to do is get that data from the game.
    Then i push it into Controller (QT).
    With my configure about 6dof mini (Servo arm length, Angle at which the servo arm lies(Degrees), Platform Radius....), i control servo's degree depend on data that i just get.

    There is a maths plugin coming to V2 that will control 6dof , internally via simtools , there will be no need for maths to be done outside of simtools.

    OK, thank for your help. I already solve my problem, but i still wondering about "Axis Assignments" in Simtools. I finding a document to use that. But look like it not easy to understand ( like how to configure Dir , Force, % , Flt, ... ), so can you help me with that.

    Do i understand right? You ask for how to get exactly roll, pitch, yaw, x,y,z data from simtools interface , or how to use data from simtools for other project?

    I put my simtools setting this way.

    so basically the axis 1 = roll, axis 2 = pitch, axis 3 = yaw ... and so on. And then now all you need to do is take those data to your motion seat control. (~^w^)~

    As you see axis1 symmetry with roll.

    You are It's Very Kind of You ,Thanks!!!:)
    I had try it ,it work.

    I found a bug,if i select "Binary" or "Hex" format ,I only get half data, (-100% -- 0% always get "0"),"Decimal" mode is OK.

    Thanks again!!!:thumbs

    @DoThink
    Ha Ha I had that same problem before. Glad that i can help you, anyway I am on the way to make a real 6 dof. Hope servos control in my mini 6dof not so different from the motors control in the real one.
