    Just wanted to note that the small window size and font remains in the update. Not sure if it was supposed to be addressed.

    Would it be possible if when I enter "Registration" page after activated, the window wouldn't show my license details?
    I have to be cautious about unfamilar people who came to try my rig accidentally seeing or copying my license content.
    That would be even more necessary in commercially used rigs I think.

    SimTools will keep the plugin alive as long as one of these processes is running.
    Content Manager, acs, acs_x86, acs_pro.
    Maybe the game has another process during practice we missed?
    Seems strange thou as the v2 plugin has been working with the same process names.

    Some things have been fixed, but won't fully be done until the skinning is finished.
    (And skinning will be the last step for a full non-beta/ full release.)
    Getting closer for sure!

    Sure, makes sense. I'm thinking of just hiding the license number, as showing the email alone can't be used for registration purposes.

    For v3, please go-to (b) axis assignments and make sure that in the upper left hand corner, the (b) axis assignment is tied to Max/Min Set #2

    I've not had an issues bud. I personally love that I can quit a race and the simtools plugin keeps running so I can just jump straight into another

    Am I the only one who is having trouble with random input hitting my system? This is happening in wrc generations and RBR. My car is parked and I'm seeing wild numbers jumping all over the place in the min/max tuning tab. Dirt rally 2 works flawlessly though.

    It's most likely just very small numbers like 2.45056438E-16, values like that and you just can't see the E is all.
    The engine running causes most games output it 'wiggle' due to the vibration of the motor running.

    Yea I'm not sure. RBR works pretty decent. My only issue is the surge seems to be getting some random data. Every second or two it kinda just blips on me.

    Dear SIMtools Support Team,

    I hope this email finds you well. I am having an issue with my SIMtools license not working on Version 3, despite being informed by your team that my Version 2 license would allow me to use Version 3. I have tried the following steps to resolve the issue, but it still persists:

    1. Installed the latest version of SIMtools software
    2. Verified the accuracy of my license key
    3. Confirmed that my license meets the system requirements
    Despite these efforts, the issue has not been resolved. I would greatly appreciate your assistance in resolving this issue. Please let me know if there is any additional information I can provide.

    Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to hearing back from you soon.
