    @Blame73 ,
    Your forgetting about Game Manager's Profile Editor thou.
    As this will alter your Max/Min values live while you are riding your sim.
    Yaw is the only value that really can't be altered live, as all games so far have a Max/Min value for yaw at -180,180.

    Give the Profile Editor a try buddy.
    You will see you can dial in any car from any game this way without having to retune game engine for each car in the game.

    Thanks for the reply @yobuddy
    I'm not forgetting Game Manager, I'm an avid game manager and profile tweaker user (after 2+ years and some tips given it would be the least...)

    I've got copy of game profiles where I lower the % of the main level or the heave because it would be dangerous to run certain games (Assetto Corsa) on certain cars (open wheels...) on certain tracks (Nordschleife...) at 100%
    I also use it to exaggerate surge on less powerful cars and so on...

    Game Manager anyway works 'within' the degrees set at the root. It doesn't exceed the 80° I set.
    If I've been too conservative during the configuration of the rig, but everything is already perfectly set, I just needed a tool that let me exceed the axis limits, so to be able to reach 90° via software

    Thanks again

    At this moment they are coming to the site many new plugins for SimTools 2.0... We can begin to download them?
    We can only use them with the new SimTools 2.0 or they can also be used with the 1.3 version?
    Well, the new plugins are coming out, but when it comes out the new SimTools 2.0?

    Oh! Surprise, I do not see any evolution of the plugin Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 (FS9) Plugin 3.0.0.1

    This plugin will never be updated for version 2.0?


    Bonne Année et Meilleurs Vœux à tous !
    Merci pour la publication de plugins pour le future SimTools V2.0 !

    Anyone still playing Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 (FS9) ? I wasn't considering updating the plugin due to the age of the simulation…

    Thank you for your explanations.
    FsX and Fs2004 are simulators with multiple add-ons
    A lot of FS2004 add-ons are not compatible with FsX, I still use Fs2004 not to throw more than 30 commercial add-ons
    FS2004 is a much less resource intensive program than FSX

    FS2004 makes it possible to have maximum fluidity with a very detailed display!
    So I still use Fs2004 and also FsX!

    I do not think I'm the only one in the Simmers world.


    Merci pour vos explications.
    FsX et Fs2004 sont des simulateurs avec de multiples add-ons
    Un grand nombre d’add-ons FS2004 n’étant pas compatibles avec FsX, j’utilise encore Fs2004 pour ne pas jeter plus que 30 add-ons commerciaux

    FS2004 est un logiciel beaucoup moins gourmand en ressourses que FsX
    FS2004 permet donc d’avoir une fluidité maximum avec un affichage très détaillé !
    J’utilise donc encore Fs2004 et également FsX !

    Je ne pense pas être le seul dans ce cas dans le monde des Simmers .

    I forgot another advantage of FS2004 compared to FsX.
    FS2004 is much more stable than FsX because less gourmand in resourses PC and this even with very many add-ons

    @value1
    J’oubliais un autre avantage de FS2004 par rapport à FsX.
    FS2004 est bien plus stable que FsX car moins gourmand en ressourses PC et ceci même avec de trés nombreux add-ons
