    I'm trying to sort how to get wind working in PCars2. I have the various axes all working and see that Extra 1 is traction loss, but it looks like Extra 2 and 3 are unused? Might be looking in the wrong place, though.

    I've got wind working in No Limits 2 with motion and it just works. All I did was add in the axes in SimTools for motion. I looked at the various axes in SimTools on the No Limits settings and don't see a speed value so am confused.
    Anyone else have wind working in PCars2 (or even PCars1)? If so, how did you do it? I think I'm really close but just missing something.

    I think that’s true but I did the same setup for PCars2 in Game Dash like how I did for No Limits and not getting any wind. I just realized I didn’t check the tuning center so maybe there is something in there.

    well, after some hard tests and bilions of resets rs.... i discover an solution for this. Simple EXIT game dash ( only, not all simtools apps ), open again and select PC2. works fine. in order: 1 - open PC2 ( normal or VR ); 2 - EXIT game dash app ( not minimized ); 3 - Open game dash and select PC2. works fine !!

    @paulopsx2 - Dude, you are the man! Just got out of my trusty Lotus 49 - WITH WIND AGAIN! Thank you so much for posting this! I don't know why Game Dash gets confused when the sim starts, but exiting and restarting it fixes it every time now for me.
