    Hi @MotionSim420, a few questions:

    Can you please post pictures of all of the gamedash screens including the gamedash tab in the game manager? Output settings, Command Editor, etc.
    You need to have the game chosen in Gamedash editor for any settings to show on screen.

    Does the game that you are trying to use have gamedash support (live for speed I assume)?

    You mention Orange Pencil, did you input the math into the pencil next to speed for the game that you are using (Command Editor)?

    Have you read through (yes the entire thing) SilentChill's thread?

    https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/simulated-wind-using-monstermoto-and-arduinouno.6876/

    EDIT: By the way, yes you always run GameManager, GameEngine and GameDash (and GameVibe if you are using it) at once.

    EDIT 2: I am assuming that you are trying to use Simtools Pro or Entertainment versions as the DIY version does not include support for GameDash.

    Yes, you will need to purchase the Pro version to use GameDash and get simulated wind to work.
