Plugin Rfactor e gtr evolution

All games are different and how a plugin extracts data can also vary from game to game: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/how-to-write-a-plugin-for-simtools-api-documentation.131/

Even within a game there are differences in the motion characteristics of different cars or aircraft.

You have three levels of refinement for any given motion profile, the Axis Allocation and associated filters, the values allocated in the Tuning Center and finally creating car or plane specific refinements in the Profile Editor section of the Game Manager.

Because SimTool plugins get values for motion from games in different ways there are differences between games in what is obtained.

In a game like Assetto Corsa the actual physics for an F1 is very different than a Cobra, and physics for a Tiger Moth is very different from a Raptor fighter jet in Prepar3D.

You can configure a motion profile in 3 ways:

1. In the Axis Allocation and associated filter values
2. In the Tuning Center values used
3. In the Profile Editor section of the Game Manager

Filters are useful but not essential for a race motion profile, but they are vital to setting up a good flight motion profile where the physical limits of motion simulators come into play for rolls and loops.

For race motion profiles use smaller Tuning Center values for fast and precise motion responses. In a plane movement tends to slightly follow control inputs and an aircraft sort of settles into a new attitude. It does depend a bit on the aircraft being used, as a Tiger Moth is very different and a lot more imprecise than a Raptor fighter jet, but generally larger values are used for for flight in Tuning Center values.

Finally, once you have the Tuning Center values as good as you can get then you can create car/track/plane specific profiles in the Game Manager using the Profiles Editor button. To use the Profile Editor copy and rename the default profile under the Editor tab. Then tweak the characteristics needed for that plane or car using the Main Level % and the sliders in the Editor tab.

Using the Profile Editor you can have a proper amount of say heave for the Cobra in the Tuning Center allocation, which would be too much for an F1. So for the F1 you could lower the Main Level % a little, which will soften the motion of all axis, then alter the heave allocation specifically in the Editor tab. You can also have tweaks for the same car at different tracks, as Nordschleife is really bumpy compared to say Monza.
