    I gave you three options and yes one was to upgrade from DIY to Pro for $29.99. One of the options was also to wait for an update to fix the registration issue, which is available at https://simtools.us/downloads-links/. Please try to register again. It should work on previously activated v2 machines.

    I ask you a question that has nothing to do with the topic you are talking about... the rfactor 2 plug-in or some other of those that are not published on the simtools v3 page, you have to wait for them to be added or you can use it those of version v2.

    The same thing happens to me, something has the plugins... you have to play the plugins and then open the f122 game.

    Pushed an update to the f122 plugin that should fix it.
    Make sure to update the plugin if your options are on manual game plugin updates.
    (little down arrow in the top left of the f122 game banner)

    Update Pushed...
    The 'E-Stop button' now doubles as a 'Start button' that allows us to launch games :thumbs
    Added – you can now launch a game from any sub-menu page of any game plugin
    Changed - SimTools now starts and stops on the page you are on (making editing profiles a lot easier)

    Hi Yobuddy, a simple change UI wise but I've immediately found this useful for setting up min/max settings. Thanks:thumbs

    Please remove the plugin from simtools (with the little trash can while hovering over the banner).
    Restart simtools and then reinstall the plugin from the repo, and it should be fixed for you.

    It patches it correctly with no need to change anything, or set anything manually in the game.
    It uses port 4123 and 2018 format.

    Hi Yobuddy,

    I'm having issues with the integrated GameVibe in V3. I set up the parameters yesterday with ACC based on the settings from V2.5 and I managed to finally get it work. However, pressing test when setting each output in 'Vibration Editor' didn't show any sign that it was activated, I had to just try to move the slider. Also, there was no save button as far as I can see on that page as there is in V2. Going to the volume page there is a save there so I pressed that but again no acknowledgment the settings had been saved. The volume sliders didn't seem to do anything so I set the volumes in the 'Vibration Editor' page.

    I then moved on to DR2 and it crashed as soon as the game launched. I removed the Vibe settings for it and the game ran fine. Now ACC has lost the Vibe settings as well and trying it again it crashes. I've even had to remove the sound card in Interface Settings to get it to not crash V3.

    Am I missing something? Hopefully you can advise me, thanks

    w00t!

    Yes, I will fix it up when i finish skinning.

    Yes, its set and forget (no save button needed)

    That's just the save as default (default settings for any new profiles for this game.
    Or save as global, default profile for any newly installed game plugins.

    The vibration editor lets you create the sounds.
    The volume page is the mixer for the game.
    So if you set rpm to 50 and and collisions at 100, the end output would favor collisions 2 to 1.
    Or collisions will be twice as strong.

    I'm guessing somehow you were able to turn on the sound tester and it stayed on and caused errors.
    But i will have to do some hunting to be sure.
    Maybe if you get a crash log you can post it here, it may tell me something.

    Hope the above helps.
    I'm almost done with 'start with windows' and 'auto game launch' detection.
    I will go over game vibe as soon as I'm done here buddy.
    Chat soon!
