    Giving up is a legitimate option.

    That said, the reality is that many other members have been able to patch DCS for motion under SimTools 2, which suggest the issue is perhaps not understood but likely bound to your particular circumstances/hardware/configuration.

    Fortunately there is more than one DCS plugin for SimTools, so please try alternatives: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...bat-simulator-dcs-experimental-plug-in.13921/

    Also be aware of potential DCS specific gotchas: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...experimental-plug-in.13921/page-3#post-227046

    See your PM notification, you are now good to go to try the alternate plugin, as a means to help figure out what specific issues are at play.
