    Hey all,
    I have been using SimHub for a long time (for my ButtKicker) before coming here and building my motion platfom. Now that I have a working rig, I am noticing some games don't play nice with using both SimHub and SimTools. I did see this feed that talks about using other UDP port apps along with SimTools
    https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/codemasters-use-simdash-and-simtools-simultaneously.143/
    but I am wondering if most people just stop using simHub after getting going with SimTools? I think the pro version of simTools has the ability to control things like ButtKickers.
    Thoughts?

    SimHub is a very easy way to get started with transducers and fans, SimTools is a bit steeper entry but integrated solution when combined with motion.
