    I want to build my own 2dof motion simulator. At the moment i havent got any components to build one. First i want to config the SimTools software to be sure it works. I have configured the GameEngine as it shown me on the quick setup. The status of the Game Manager is connectend and when the game is started it says game running. So far so good. But when im playing LFS there isnt a movement in the Tuning Center at all. Does anyone have an idea why?

    Thanks for helping :)

    even if you are not using motion you have to configure game engine- axis assignments and interface settings to see values in tuning center and patch the game with game manager.
    do something like the foto and you will se the values changing in race

    I've tried that out but it won't work eighter. These are my settings. You can see in the tuning center some Max and Min values but they are feeze and arent changing while im am driving.
