    Will try tonight and let you know.
    I also noticed a stupid thing in PC2: they reversed the UDP frequency : UDP 1 means high freq updates, UDP 9 means low freq update. I do not know if they messed the french translation, but it was reversed.

    Maybe I'm missing something but it seems the lower the number is the faster the updates?

    English translation: a low value will generate less frequent data, reducing network traffic....

    I also tried other combination: as decimal separator list separator = result

    ., = OK
    ,, = KO
    ,. = KO
    .. = OK
    ,; = KO
    .; = OK

    It really looks like everything is fine as long as you use dot as decimal separator. having decimal and list the same (.) doesnt make much sense so I think I will stick to .;

    Beside this regional setting stuff, I'm experiencing some weird issues with gamevibe. Sometimes, it just stops sending sound :no crash, values still displayed ok in tuning center. I'm suspecting my USB sound card. Would you recommend some ?

    Any 5.1 usb sound card with a volume knob would be nice.

    If you run game dash, and it stops also, it could be a problem with the (mute) feature.
    But i believe that is fixed in SimTools 2.2.5.

    gamedash works flawlessly. I'm running 2.2.5. Will try with the native stereo output from the PC to see if it goes away .

    Well, I have been doing many tests with my USB sound card , a CSL 7.1 usb based on CM6026 chipset. Tried several drivers and settings but sound gets interrupted, chopped. Tried several usb ports, with/without hub. No luck.
    On the other hand, the on board sound card (realtek high def) worked like a charm. I replicated stereo output on the 2 front channels. I think I'll get a PCI sound card such as the asus xonar dgx to avoid usb.
    will continue and report my testing

    @vthinsel
    When you did this test;
    What system local were you in buddy?
    system local.jpg

    Was it set to something other than you system default?
    I just wonder if the results change with a different setting is all.
    Thanks man,

    I'm using PC2 with your UDP-Plugin for PC and had no interrupt issues with my low cost sound card in gamevibe so far. Of course it's limited to stereo, but as I currently only use one Aura (with option for a second) this works for me. So if you want to test if this issue is soundcard dependent you might try to get this type:
    Manhattan Hi-Speed USB 3D Sound Adapter

    It is in french:

    Could try again the tests with separators, but I do not think it will impact the result

    Good idea! I will try too.
    FYI @vthinsel I had trouble with your plugin for PCARS2 UDP (PS4) by using speed because of comma...

    @yobuddy

    Is it planned to support 5.1ch or 7.1ch?

    4ch also confirmed that it gives a pretty good feeling, 5.1ch or 7.1ch, you can use a variety of more likely.

    It would be quite interesting if you set the remaining two or four speakers as dedicated speakers in addition to the four speakers based on 3D sound.

    Pedal(ABS, disc Lock), Shifter(Miss shifting), Seat, Etc...

    If you can designate each as dedicated, you can get a more realistic dynamic feel.

    Hello yobuddy!

    Thank you for your fast reply.
    Downloaded the Direct X Runtime from your link.
    But at the end at the Setup i got a message that i already have the newest Direct X , so setup didnt install anything.

    When i want to start Gamevibe i got the error message again.
    I dont know whats wrong.

    Thank you for your help!

    You don't have Microsoft DirectX DirectSound 9.0c available.
    Allot of times it gets installed with a game, so you barley know it's missing.

    Since your on win10, you could check that you have .net 3.5 and below enabled on your machine.
