    According to the license they should both be installed on the same PC, the latest version of SimTools 2 is always here: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/marketplace/categories/simtools.37/

    Hi guys！
    I'm having problems setting up Simtools. When I installed the plugin, I found that I could not configure the network interface. I tried to reinstall the plugin, but the problem still failed.
    Thank you in advance for your reply! upload_2023-11-27_16-26-58.png

    Seems I missed some posts. (I didn't get any email notifications for some reason)
    Let me see if I can catch up a bit...

    All the profiles did in v2, was to adjust the games max/min values by up to + - 50%.
    Since in v3 we can have as many profiles as we want, we can simply adjust the the Max/Min values for the profile selected.

    You can set a parking location in the motion section.

    I know this is kinda over know, but just so everyone knows, they updated the telemetry api for the game from v13 to v14 (so we had to update the plugin too is all).
    Take care!

    Are you trying to install a V3 plugin into V2?

    Hi @Blastertoad,
    All good ideas here buddy, some are possible and some are a bit out of reach.
    But we can go over them all for sure.

    I'm not sure what you looking to get ported?

    Maybe a favorites or a list by type may make sense in the future, but right now most games are of type land.
    Maybe a press a key and jump to the 's' or something (being its all alphabetical).

    We are thinking of maybe little question marks, or something, that can be clicked and opens the corresponding manual page. (but the manual needs to be finished first is all)

    This is just a limitation of winforms is all.

    There is some gui options when exporting a setup plugin to make the gui simpler, but moving dash items around is probably not in the future.

    With that said thou, a remote profiler is something I am interested in.
    And a few ideas but no time to play with it yet.

    I don't think double clicking is to hard really?
    It's what we do with any exe we want to launch, is what I was thinking.

    I will probably add it to the systray menu as it would always be available then.

    I find it really annoying to have it poop-up every time i open the gui, and then have it disappear again when I tray the gui.

    We have this one half done I think, I will take a look buddy.

    Hello dear friend. Please help me figure it out. I've been trying to set up the WRC EA game on the rg srt 80 for several days now, I can't understand anything. Everything works fine during the test. then I start the game and the engines work in a completely different way. . then I close everything and already in the test everything does not work correctly again. I've seen and used all your screenshots. but nothing helps.
    Here is a topic with discussion. please help each other

    I just tried it here and it is working for me. You do need to fly around in the game before you can patch it. Have you done this? You also need to patch the game in the Saved Games folder not the installation folder.
    Make sure there are min/max values for Air and not just ground, so make sure you have the clouds showing with max min values as seen in the image. pK35S9BXDU.jpg

    I have the same problem as Kaneda. No telemetry from DCS too SimTools (= the line for input in Min/Max tuning screeen is empty of values).

    1. Flying around in DCS before patching. Checked.
    2. Patching to Saved Games folder. Checked.
    3. Air icon in Min/Max tuning screen. Checked.

    Dear Yobuddy. Can you please have a look at this issue, maybe give us a tutorial for DCS plugin especially. Not only on the SimTools side of the aile, but how to configure DCS as well.

    I seem not to be the only one with this problem.

    Thank you in advance.

    Rich and I tested the plugin directly above your post buddy.
    (The plugin does install the default lua script thou, it could be we need another one for places that use the coma as a decimal point?)
    Edit: Never mind, we fixed the coma decimal point problem before the first release - so that's not the problem.

    Did you have the game working before?
    Or is this a new install?
    (there was a game update on the 22 I believe)

    We posted an update to the DCS plugin. It should work everywhere now without needing to change anything in Windows. If you have Auto set for plugin updates, then it will update correctly without needing to do anything. If you have Ask set for plugin updates, then you will need to uninstall the plugin and then restart SimTools and install the new plugin for it to update correctly. The Ask update bug is only an issue when you are updating a plugin that requires a re-patch like DCS and will be fixed in a later release of SimTools. Let us know if you have any issues with the DCS plugin update.

    @ Yobuddy and Rich,

    Thank you for your efforts. Much appreciated. I'm building a new computer right now so I can't test the new plugin yet, but I will as soon as I have everything on place.

    Kind regards

    Michael

    Hello everyone. I have the Njmotion compact-R which does not work with EA WRC. All other games running Simtools 3.0 except EA-WRC. I bought the game directly from EA and not on Steam. Is there a reason why my compact-R's axes aren't working, maybe because I'm not using wrc via Steam.

    When I do tests via simtools 3.0 on the axes nothing reacts, whereas with other games it works perfectly. Maybe you can help me get the Njmotion compact-R and simtools 3.0 working with the EA WRC game and simtools 3.0 Best regards Philippe
