    Probably best to wait till January now for domestic reasons. I know my girlfriend will be choked when I spend the whole Christmas holiday tuning and testing Simtools 2.0 :)

    Hopefully january 2017. Considering there is no working Elite plugin till then, my motors are likely to rust solid.

    I believe it will be released when it and the support system is ready, without regard for the calendar. Very soon, they are working tirelessly to get it right. I'm positive your continued patience is greatly appreciated by the developers.

    Happy New Year everyone ! ...:cheers
    Will the old SimTools V1.3 profiles remain accessible or will they disappear from the download?
    Once the profile is adapted to the future SimTools V2.0, will the old V1.3 profiles always be accessible and for how long?

    Bonne Année à tous ! ...
    Les anciens profils SimTools V1.3 resteront-ils accessibles ou vont-ils disparaitre du téléchargement possible ?
    Une fois le profil adapté au futur SimTools V2.0 , les anciens profils V1.3 resteront-ils toujours accessibles et pour combien de temps ?

    @TFOU57 i guess it depends if anyone is keeping the plugins up to date,,, or writing new ones ,,,which doesn't seem logical when everyone is going to be switching to 2.0 very soon..

    @ Stevemontuno,
    I was of course talking about the future of access to SimTools 1.3 profiles already developed and published.
    It seems clear to me that after the release of the long awaited version 2.0 all the plugins are developed for this latest version 2.0.


    @ Stevemontuno ,
    Je parlais bien sûr du devenir de l'accès à des profils SimTools 1.3 déjà développés et publiés.
    Il me semble bien évident qu'après la sortie de la version 2.0 tant attendue tous les plugins soient développés pour cette dernière version 2.0.

    @TFOU57 I'm sure @yobuddy has stated that 1.3 will still remain for folks who are still using it.

    @yobuddy
    A question/request for Simtools 2.0:
    Will/could it be possible to set Axis limiting to more then 100%?

    This could sound stupid but let me try to explain my request:
    When we all set our rigs and software we firstly have to set max/min values in JRK/SMC3/... and then set values in Simtools that are, anyway, binded to what we did before.

    So, let's say I set my max and min values and make my rig work for 80° (+40°/-40°), if then I'd like to have less excursion I could limit my axis in Simtools to x%
    But if I wanted to have, let's say, 90°... I should recalibrate the rig from scratch (through the JRK learn process or whatever), and we know it's a pain, while having the chance to set the Axis Limiting to 113% I could have easily solved my problem.

    I hope I've been clear enough, thanks for your attention
