    Hi

    I am new to the forum and have just built a 2 DOF simulator based on @bsft's desk racer for which I owe him a big thanks. I will post some pics once I have taken them.

    I fired it up today and it all works, however when I am tuning the profile I am having some trouble understanding the logic of assigning the axes on the game engine. per the instructions there are 4 types of forces to use for a race sim, heave, surge etc. How do I allocate these forces to the different axes/DOF column? From what I can determine only axis 1 and 2 work on my rig so how do I model 4 forces? When I loaded the setup below it only worked on 1 motor.

    Any help greatly appreciated.

    I worked it out, didn't realise you could scroll to the right for more DOF columns.
