    I would like to build a motion rig using my gaming console is that possible? Has anyone here done that already? Do you know of any YouTube videos that may show an Xbox Series X in action using a motion sim?

    thanks

    Yes you can using UDP telemetry from a handful of games that support it. Forza supports it and I think I saw it in Project Cars the other day. I haven't tried it yet as I'm still building my rig but I intend to start with my Xbox and Forza and build a gaming PC later. You'll need a pc to run Simtools and have it L2 adjacent to your Xbox but it can be reasonably low specs. There is a FAQ about using a crossover cable but if you have the two on the same unrouted network, I don't see why it wouldn't work. Consoles (xsimulator.net)
