NoLimits Rollercoaster Simulation Plugin 2.0.1.17

Hi @SilentChill
I've had a conversation with Ole some time ago about the coming API for V2.2 and for sure we will try to extract the motion data via this.
Dunno ATM when V2.2 will be ready though.
Thanks for sharing

Looking forward to it! This is already one of the best games for non-race users to try VR on.

I haven't understood why the roll an pitch aren't present in the nolimits plugin. For a realistic simulation on a 3dof I think they are needed. Or not? I think the right configuration should be roll, pitch and heave, someone can explain me better?

Maybe pitch, roll and yaw will be available with the IP-API of NoLimits version 2.2.

The right configuration should be roll, pitch, yaw, heave, sway and surge

Of course!!!!

So, at the moment there is a limit of the game that doesn't has these parameters in output?

@value1 - No Limits 2 has updated to V.2.2.0.0 and the plugin no longer works.

Mike

This is good news! Thanks!

@value1 - I hope I didn't ruin your day!

I hope, you made my day ;-)

Yes because advanced telemetry is now implemented meaning more motion and hopefully all 6dof and some shaking gonna happen !!!!

value1 updated NoLimits Rollercoaster Simulation Plugin with a new update entry:

Update for NoLimits V2.2

This plugin makes use of the new API provided by NoLimits.
A big "Thank you" to Ole Lange for taking the time and effort to implement a genuine API!
This version of the plugin works with NLS V2.2 and higher! If you run an earlier version of the simulation, use plugin version 2.1.5.0!

In order to activate the telemetry in the simulation, you must start NLS with the option --telemetry. Note: There must be two "-" in front of the "telemetry"!
Non-Steam version:
Create a shortcut to nolimits2app.exe – right click on Properties and add to the the Target --telemetry Note: There must be two "-" in front of the "telemetry"!

Steam version:
In your steam client library right-click on the NoLimits 2 Roller Coaster Simulation, select Properties and click on Start Options and add --telemetry

Do we get vibrations now @value1 ? Cant wait to test it as soon as I get chance

And woohoo you wont have to keep updating the plugin now !!!!!


Thanks for all the hard work you put in again dude awesome work !!

Is there more than 3 effects now? Including roll and pitch?

Very good news indeed and thanks a lot @value1!

Hi @value1 ,

I've tested the new plugin and I have some issues. When we now do a cork screw or similar the sim jumps back from one side to the other when you reach 180 degrees I think. Its like P3D if you do a barrel role and it kicks you right over the other way. I think pitch may be doing the same thing but need to do more testing.

If I do a fresh capture in sim tools the roll capture 179.4378643 or something like that. Sway doesn't seem to do much at all the rig hardly moves.

Hi @value1,
I've got a problem also with the new plugin. Every time I try to run the game I get an "Unhandled exception error".

************** Exception Text **************
System.Net.Sockets.SocketException (0x80004005): No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:15151

Game Engine and Game Manager show that they are connected to the game, but there is no data in the Tuning Centre.

Any ideas?

the @SilentChill problem exactly is the same as mine when I just used Heading value for Yaw in FSX(turning point at 180 degree)
on my mini 6dof rig.but this time for NL2 is more critical...

value1 updated NoLimits Rollercoaster Simulation Plugin with a new update entry:

Improved error trapping

Read the rest of this update entry...

I think this will fix your issue, @AceOfSpies

Thanks @value1 will give it a go tomorrow
