    Perfect racing curves @dJuL ... The motion and the treble screen really gets you in the good driving mode . :cheers
    So , May I ask about the S/W ? Is it included with the T1000 or you're using SimTools ?

    The best of the best for the best :thumbs ...
    But what is the " home/remote installation " that prosimu are charging a "543.00/162.00 USD" for it ?

    Also they mentioned a " Simulator management software " with a big list of supported games ... have you asked for what is that ?
    I've registered but I can't find any FAQ to read ...


    Sorry for these many questions ... :)

    Where did you see a "home/remote installation" ?
    I never saw that...

    They don't have their own software, but they advice their clients to use Simtools.

    Funny, I raised the possibility about commercial entities charging to install SimTools, ironically in relation to ProSimu: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/prosimu-t1000-2motion.6649/page-2#post-73466

    Part of that thread contained the statement that @yobuddy had been contacted by ProSimu, I would be interested in what, if anything, was the outcome: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/prosimu-t1000-2motion.6649/#post-73341

    Again all I can do is flag my concern that the current licensing is easy to circumvent and that the implications are wider than just the developers, because as a community we are the ones that can end up providing defacto free technical support for a commercial model that is designed to either profit from SimTools installs, or externalize the cost to our community.

    Please don't misinterpret my comments to have anything to do with yourself @dJuL, my concern is licensing and commercial operations.

    Charging 149,00 € for remote installs, 499,00 € for on site installs...that gives a good indication of the market value of what we as a community provide for nothing.

    Actually you're a very very good talented man ... and this is a valuable community that companies rely on it now and soon they will learn how to res;)pect the author more .
    Inner satisfaction is priceless ... Have some popcorn with me :popcorn my friend .

    So @dJuL ... for future upgrading purposes in SimTools ... what is the manufacturer setup that you've been supplied with for SimTools ? what kind of settings do you have for the SCN5's S/W ?
    I see they say that the actuators are 150W only ... Very good, But ...
    Do you know How is that ?

    Oh Yah :thumbs ... Sure thanks to PatrickPro for adding the preset for the T1000 ...
    A smart small contribution to the Buyer group ... :p
    So you too have done a good small contribution so far as a DIYer ...
    And if you built it by yourself it is still Made in France but cost you less ...
    I really need to see your future helpful thoughts and talent my friend ...
    looking forward for more from you mon ami :cheers .

    Just did a video with no limits this afternoon.
    My daughter loves it !
    I can move the phone and it's easier to see the chair roll when we can see the bottom of the chair.
    Level % is setted to 100% in game manager, for car games I usually set it near 90%
    I did little tweaks in game engine preset too.


    It was difficult to explain to her "now it is finish, dad wants to play with his car also" :grin

    With butterfly screws yes, one of the 3 screws was moving on the base, I replaced it with a standard screw (when I was sure about the position) and now it's not moving at all. ;)

    I play on RBR and Asseto Corsa.
    I'm downloading Dirt Rally on steam now.

    No it is easy to mount, you will receive a PDF manual and a youtube link.
    No software are delivered, you have to install and configure simtools (or others)
    Again all is explained in the pdf and in the video.

    ;)

    Je joue avec RBR et AC.
    Je suis entrain de télécharger Dirt Rally, je viens juste de l'acheter.

    Le montage est assez simple, tu vas recevoir par mail une notice en PDF et un lien youtube.
    Il n'y a pas de logiciel fournis, il faut utiliser simtools (ou autre)
    Tout est expliqué dans le PDF et sur une video youtube.

    Recently received my T1000 by Prosimu. I'm not finish setting up my race sim rig but got to try NoLimits last night and it was really great. I had to lower main level 80%. At 100%, the rig has a tendency of literally jump in the air as the front of my rig is not yet that heavy. I don't have a steering wheel and pedal yet.
