    No you can't use the 1.3 plugins, you will have to install the newly updated plugins for 2.0.

    Use the Plugin Updater in the SimTools folder found in your Windows menu.

    Hello
    If I assume the settings of version 1.3 in 2.0, I get no signals or movements on my 2DOF! I am using an arduino mega with serial link. If I then go back to version 1.3 everything works again normal!

    What am I doing wrong?
    thank you

    I think you are using v2 together with v1. 3.
    Remember you have to completely uninstall 1.3 and delete settings before installing 2.0.
    Back up previous settings if you want to (I did it just for reference)

    I have deleted 1.3 before I have 2.0. I think all this was deleted. Then I installed 2.0 and the data for serial konoikation again registered. When I got the thing not to run, I've 2.0 again deleted and 1.3 installed. Went immediately again without problems.
    I bhab the same data registered at 2.0 as with my upper post in version 1.3! Are these possibly wrong at 2.0? Or must a code, name or whatever else be different?

    I don't know if using the tilde between axis is correct. Try deleting it

    You have not defined the axises correctly - there are now an 'a' & 'b' group.

    It should be

    @maxx8888 ,
    Try this buddy: "A<Axis1a>~B<Axis2a>~C<Axis3a>~"
    The 'a' tells it which axis asignments to use as we have 2 sets now.

    @Wanegain,
    Is this a new problem?
    What was the last game plugin you installed?
    do you have the kart racing pro plugin installed?

    I did not read this whole thread for saying it's new...
    I tried first before installing a plugin and it crashed. After that I installed AC, DiRT, GTL and Pcars plugins...

    English/Spanish translation seems to be difficult.

    I think you're using the demo version, right?
    have you bought a professional license or asked for a free DIY license (in case you built your own rig and have your thread here)?
