    Hi
    I have just started looking into the possibility of building a motion simulator for DCS and other flight sims.

    First I want to see if I can get Simtools to work with DCS.
    * Simtools V3 is installed
    * DCS plugin v3.00 is installed
    * Eport.lua is in the DCS saved games folder (does it need to modified? with the actual local ip adress?)
    * The game can be launched from Simtools

    However, I do not get any telemetry data to show in the "Min/Max Tuning" page when playing DCS. What am I missing?

    Best regards
    Jo-E

    SimTools v3 is still in open Beta testing, so issues should be reported on the dedicated Beta testing thread for SimTools dev visibility, investigation and if necessary action: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/simtools-v3-public-beta.17329/
