    Cheers for putting a form in, Craig. Let us know if you get any response.
    Just patched the latest updated plugin but no joy. Double checked to make sure its the latest patch files that were unzipped to simtools v2 folder (they are). No motion tho.
    Anyone else tried it?

    Just a thought: Have you un-patched and re-patched the game after drag'n'drop of the plugin?

    You need to unpatch and repatch the game. Also make sure the new wow64dll is copied into your simtoools install folder

    First thing I did guys.
    I just did a re-patch again from the start. Still no moves. Works ok with joystick plugin so I'm confident my rig is fine.
    Will have a closer look again tomorrow. Pretty sure I've missed nothing tho

    Great job Craig - I'm all up an running again with the latest patch. I won't be using the joystick plugin again for a while.
    Looking forward to a bit of ED now (the way its meant to be played - with game reactive motion). My other main 'hobby' is building turbo and supercharged bikes. A gearbox rebuild on 240hp R1 has kept me busy for the last few days so I think I deserve a bit of playtime now so its great timing.
    Thanks again for your hard work. You deserve some beer!

    Hi,
    Is this plugin still working?
    I tried using it for the first time today but I can't get it to work at all, so far I have tried copying over the two dll files, tried uninstalling the patch and reinstalling it patch.
    Are there any special instruction to get it to work.
    For information I am running ED Horizons (non VR), windows 10 64 bit, I have also tried ED not Horizon as well neither of them give me any motion.
    All the other games I have tried work with motion.
    I tried moving the installation files to the steam default C: drive folder (previously on the D drive) and copying the two dll files to the Simtools folder but no joy.
    Thanks,
    David

    Plugin working fine, I tried the VR version of the plugin and strangely it worked even though I am not playing in VR. I can only assume that because I have an Oculus Rift although I am no playing in VR you still need to use the VR version. Strange but it works well.

    Hello if I'm not mistaken - this version of plugin was working with VR earlier? What should I download to have movements with VR in this game?

    Hello,

    Impossible to get it to work yersterday ... I tried updating the plugin / patching / unpatching manualy copying the files ...

    I use horizon in NON VR, game is up to date.

    The only thing "strange" is in simtool, plugin profile, last tab it is writen plugin version 2.0.0.2 ...

    Anyway, my rig is fine, there is just not comm between elite and simtools ..

    Any thought ?

    I looked and found this

    "The current version is (v2.3.11 & v1.8.11), released on 11th July 2017"

    So it seems .. and there is the 2.4beta, so again a new version will get out soon ..

    That would depend on when @SilentChill has free time to have a look at it.

    Yeah ...

    2 things :

    - Can someone explain me how to do it ? (I understand this has to do with memory reading of the info), I'm quite capable of doing computer stuff .. so ..

    - If not, maybe Silentchill should wait the end of the 2.4beta that will be out soon ...
