    Hi
    First of All Thanks for keeping providing the best motion/haptic software for só long!
    I think V3 is really a big improvement in all areas.
    Im having a general fantastic experience in all but one title... RBR!

    I don't know if it's just a problem of the RBR RSF plugin, or general...i have seen reported here some issues, tried to follow them... UDP activated and not, diferent port UDP numbers...but i still keep getting strange motion...kind of muffed, slow, not clear fast and crisp as in every other games, and like i had before.

    Can you help me, do you think is only related to certain non original RBR versions, or maybe NGP physics related...do you intend to support plugins like RSF, wich is now the more used by RBR comunity?!
    As anyone have profiles that work OK and that can Share?!

    Another less important thing...is it possible to adjust Parking, but that the new position is mantained during playing, and not just when off?!

    Thank you very much for All your work and support!

    First of all, thank you for the V3 update.

    I used to use Thanos-AMC (AASD15A) well using 'Simtools 2.5.1'.
    However, it worked normally only when the language & region setting was set to English (USA).

    I installed 'Simtools 3beta' this time, but it seems that data is not being sent and received from Thanos Board.
    You can connect to the 'AMC-AASD15A Config Tool (Addons)', but it does not work.

    Is there anything I'm missing?

    My guess is your Thanos Boards needs a firmware update?

    MyGames\F1 22 Folder ist empty, only a folder "hardwaresettings" is there.

    Maybe the race "very short" is not enough???

    When I try to patch, get error not valid folder or location

    Hello

    I'm trying to setup a 4 actuator SFX 150 system with the THanos controller.

    I can register the motors and move the rig but when setting up the motion profile I can't seem to get my heave motion to go up and down in one series. For example; as I move the slider all the way to one side the rig will go up and down 2x before it reaches the end of the slider. Any suggestions for how to fix this?

    Hey, it seems the plugin push only yielded one flight sim plugin.

    Would it be possible to prioritize FS2020 (market leader) and XP12 (very motion platform friendly), so that flight simmers can join in?

    To be fair, the game has 5 stand alone games in the series, so we thought it was going to be 5 plugins. :D

    Be aware that you may need to remove the old and and restart simtools v3.
    Then install it again from the repo.
    Take care!
