    I'm confused, as your post is about FSX, but all of your pictures are for Prepar3D?
    I'm guessing you posted the wrong pictures?

    You were able to get motion with fsx according to this post.
    https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/fsx.18320/#post-245675
    Be aware that installing two version of fsx on the same machine, at the same time, will probably only cause problems.
    Take care,

    Hi Yobuddy,

    please find below my settings for F1 2024.
    As you can see, I don´t use any filter and I should have the right settings, cause I have identical ones at Le Mans Ultimate and there it works perfect!
    When I begin to drive from the box, the Traction Loss is spinning undefined to the left and to right side.
    All other forces are working proper.

    Thanks for your help in advance!

    Sounds like you need to capture max/min for traction loss is all.
    As a quick test, you can change the traction loss max/min number to +-25 and see if it's better.
    I would also increase your roll and pitch max/min to +-25 or so, as right now they are limited to only +-5 deg.
    Anyway, please give this a try, and let me know how it goes.
    Chat soon,

    Sry guys, I have not had the time to test this patch until now. But I can tell you.

    YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!

    IT WORKS! IT WORKS! IT WORKS! IT WORKS!

    I'm so grateful for this patch!

    THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

    You took the time and put all your efforts in. I'm have been struggling to have DSC working with my chair for so long. And now it works!

    Thank you Rich. Thank you buddy. Thanks to all of you.

    Kind regards

    Hi,

    now I‘ve tested both suggested settings with higher values of +/- 25, but unfortunately it makes no difference to my old settings. As I already wrote, I have the same settings at LMU, and in the past, it always worked with SimTools 2 and the older F1–Titels, too.
    So would be great, if you have a further idea!
    Thanks!

    Hi all,

    I was running F1 '23 great on my S2 Symdeck platform; I am trying to setup the F1 '24 game and under the Dual JRK it is only picking up one of the actuators. My left side picks up and moves but I can't get my right side detected/working. Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks,

    What happens when you click the 'Test Settings' button, under Interface setup, for the dual interface setup?
    Do both actuators respond as they should.

    No, it only picks up the left actuator. It doesn't find the right acuator number to to select and test. I'm doing this all under the Symdeck plug-in; should I use the Simtools pc plug-in?

    With only one Jrk showing up in the interface settings to configure, it sounds like it may be a hardware issue? I think you should send Symdeck an email and explain the situation. I bet they know what to check right away and can help get you fixed up.

    Thank you, I will connect with them. Any idea though on why I didn't have that issue with F1 23 just last week? Thank you

    The Interface setup is independent of the game plugins.
    Do you currently have F1 23 working in v3?

    I did have it working, but I wasn't using the symdeck interface.

    Hi Yobuddy,
    Z1 and Simhub have released an dash-support for F1 2024, but both are only working with the UDP-port 20777 but Simtools allows only the port 4123.
    So my question is, if there is a chance to change it from your side to get it work. Russell Hodgsen from Z1 means that you maybe can help.
    Thanks!!

    Only one app can collect data from a UDP port at a time. So we actually don't want the plugin using the default 20777 port. What we want to do is get the plugin working in SimTools, and then setup a UDP Relay from SimTools, and send a copy of the data to port 20777. (like in the pic below, but for F1 2024)

    I'm guessing you were using the jrk interface plugin for interface 1 and 2 before?
    Maybe re-setup what was working, as it should work for 2024 also.
    Take care!

    Hi,
    How can I use min/max settings for il2 gb sturmovik one set for runway and one set for the air? I already have some min/max values for "runway" option but when i set some min/max values for " air" and press "save profile", simtools will not hold the current "air" values.
