    SimTools v3 has soft start built in, so probably not needed.

    Grid 2 and Grid Legends both updated with yaw, roll and pitch rate outputs.
    Also added udp relay option and axis output direction fixes.

    We also added... :thumbs

    Have problem with ETS2, that after calibration, if truck moves at 60kmh above the rig will move right and left to the roll. And must turn down Sway sensitivity a lot.

    I can't find Extral3 in version 0.1 software
    My dynamic simulator needs to set Extral2 in version 6.1, but I can't find this setting in version 3.0. How do you fix it?

    @huangwenkang,
    Roll rate, pitch rate and yaw rate are still included, they are just extra 4 thru 6 now.

    its now Extra6

    Use Extra5

    Also know that in V2, the axis assignments per axis are horizontally orientated.
    But in v2 the axes are vertical.

    @deeph46,
    Seems to be working here just fine, may I see your axis assignments?

    Just got my rig working the other day, any tips on the how to use the tuning center, and axis setups, especially traction loss and yaw. Been trying to tune TL and yaw without any other axis, but still very jerky and a bit random. Any help would be appreciated. Apologies if this has been covered in here before.

    When I install the DCS plugin for V3 it overwrites my export.lua file.

    is there a command that I can put into my current export.lua file that would refer to the dcs simtools v3 export? or should i just copy my existing export.lua into the top of the one the plugin creates?

    Simply set all your sound cards (vibe settings) to nothing "-", then re-select your cards and your golden.

    I don't know of any command I'm afraid.
    I will look at adding a backup and restore of the original script if found as I think that makes sense.
    I'm not sure what your script looks like, but you could try it.
    (You probably would need to combine the two scripts.)

    @MR Fast,
    You will probably want to use Traction Loss when ever possible.
    PM me, and i can peek at your settings, chat about tuning. etc..

    Hello everyone,


    I have 4 Prosimu PRS200 and I can't manage to declare them so that they are supported by the new simtools 3!

    Any ideas?

    Thank you in advance for your help and have a nice day!

    Best regards

    my original export.lua looks like this...

    local vaicomlfs = require('lfs'); dofile(vaicomlfs.writedir()..[[Scripts\VAICOMPRO\VAICOMPRO.export.lua]])
    dofile(lfs.writedir()..[[Scripts\SimShaker-export-core\ExportCore.lua]])
    local SimShakerlfs=require('lfs'); dofile(SimShakerlfs.writedir()..'Scripts/SimShaker.lua')
    local Tacviewlfs=require('lfs');dofile(Tacviewlfs.writedir()..'Scripts/TacviewGameExport.lua')
    local DCSDTClfs=require('lfs'); dofile(DCSDTClfs.writedir()..'Scripts/DCSDTC.lua')

    pcall(function() local dcsSr=require('lfs');dofile(dcsSr.writedir()..[[Mods\Services\DCS-SRS\Scripts\DCS-SimpleRadioStandalone.lua]]); end,nil);    ​

    Based on that it looks like that you can call other lua scripts from the export. I'll have to do a little reading and see if we can make that happen. It looks like on the surface there are 3 different techniques used in my export.lua, so I'll have to unwind that. Let me know if you get there first:)

    I sent them updated interfaces for v3 and I have seen them working.
    So maybe ask them for support, as I know they have the files you need buddy.
    Take care,

    Are the simtools "slots" in the same order when writing out to the simtools socket (41230) from the DCS export.lua in simtools V2 and V3?

    After Automobilista 2 Update, the motion plugin doesn't work , I tried plugin uninstall/install/Simtools restart procedure but didn't work. I can't read any data from the game when trying to capture Mix/Max Values.
