    You can try contacting the game devs to see if it has telemetry, or if they would consider implementing a telemetry API: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...ry-output-into-a-game-unity-and-ue4-code.287/

    There are ways to use the hook method for games that do not have an API, but it is very hard to maintain over time as most game updates break the plugin: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...lugin-for-simtools-2-0-api-documentation.131/

    The pragmatic alternative if you don't have the skills or interest to maintain a plugin is to use the generic Joystick plugin and extend it with vJoy: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...otion-plugin-and-vjoy-controller-mapping.387/

    I see Dakar to be a very good simulation game (currently offered for free on the epicgaming platform), and I really hope Simtools has a plugin to support this game.
