    Keep me posted on this, there is no reason the update should not start.
    There just isn't any big changes from the last version is all.
    Anyway, keep me posted.

    It seems SimToolsV2 can handle total 12 actuators by a and b setup. How to assign total 12 axis by Axis 1a, 2a... and Axis 1b, 2b ... together? Thank you.

    SimTools 2.0 can support the math for up to 12 actuators, but you need an interface that supports 2 or more axes to be able to assign all 12 outputs.
    For instance the SCN driver only supports 1 can per interface at the moment.
    So with SCN's you can have up to 6 actuators.

    I think it is very attractive if two motion seats work same time to training driver and co-driver for real rally car driving. 4 axis each total 8 axis will be good at least. Please.

    Just connect the second motion sim to the signal output from the first simulator and they will run parallel. (I think) ;)

    Hello Friend? I have a doubt!
    I am Gold contributor,
    Sim Tools 2.1 when 1 Year - SimTools 2.0 Edition
    $ 89.99
    Commercial Use Permitted Use
    Allowed public will I have to buy the correct key?
    Do these keys after 1 year expire, and will I have to pay for it again? Crash within 1 year program?
    I paying for the Sim tools 89.99 can I install on more than 1 computer?
    For each simulator will I have a key or will it serve the others?

    thank you!

    Gold membership is related to plugin access and the Xsimulator.net site, not SimTools licensing.

    Here are the SimTools 2 license options, only the Entertainment License is an annual fee: https://simtools.us/license/

    Yes you do need to license SimTools 2 for commercial use.

    If you are running an arcade of simulators you will need multiple licenses.

    Good evening? Paying the key $ 89.99 will I have the definitive key with unlimited time? And can I still market? But for my client to enjoy the equipment with unlimited time will I have to buy a new key of the same value?

    There are 2 types of commercial license available via the link I previously posted.

    The first is for commercial simulators that are sold and SimTools is to be used, the second is for commercial use for rides, like in arcades, and that is the only one that needs to be renewed annually.

    No.

    If you sell simulators, sell them with a pro license.
    If you sell rides on your sim, or rent them out, you need an entertainment license.
