    Hello,
    I am currently at the end of the project and of tests on my simracing. But after reading and re-reading the tutorials, I cannot carry out my tests without the plugins of a game.
    Would it be possible to have a plugin of an old games as a project-car or simply a "test" plugin. Because unless I'm mistaken I can't test my realization. Or is there another one test method? Thank you in advance to the person who will be kind enough to enlighten me

    Hello,

    I'm not sure I'm in the right place to ask technical questions
    I followed the instructions indicated in your tutorial and I encountered a problem and no matter how much I looked, I cannot locate the origin
    When I want to test in GAME ENGINE / OUTPOUT TESTING and I press TURN OFF my engine number 2 layer
    it shakes back and forth on a fraction of a continuous rotation
    and if I go back to TURN ON it continues

    A little idea about my problem
    Thanks in advance

    cordially

    Hello, I have reviewed all my wiring and it apparently works. Where can I find the LFS plugin? In simtools directly or in LFS

    Grab a copy of the SimTools manual and keep it handy for reference.

    You need to configure a LFS Axis Assignment profile, LFS can be found in the drop down.

    Run LFS before patching it for motion: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...run-in-first-person-mode-before-patching.365/

    Also see the tuning tips in the FAQs: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/steps-to-create-a-motion-profile.228/

    Hello,
    Thank you for your reply. I will indeed print the simtools document to have it always at hand and to avoid juggling between the different windows and making errors in the settings.

    Today I have to dismantle my installation
    since it works in Manual to paint the chassis. Then I would install the material in the final clean and try this time to make it work in games.

    Please post pictures of all of your settings, including the Tuning Center while LFS is running.

    I took the pictures of my different settings and trying to regrade all the windows I managed to enter a good parameter and I am finally connected to the LFS games
    I took the pictures of my different settings and trying to re-index all the windows I managed to enter a good parameter and I am finally connected to the LFS games. I don't know exactly how but it works. A small step towards the victory

    On the other hand, shouldn't the displayed values change according to the movement of the car?

    The top row of the Tuning Center should show data when the car is moving, if it does not then something is interfering with communications, most likely firewall or Antivirus, and/or your computer needs to be set to English Local: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/simtools-language-setting-bug-change-to-english-local.233/

    Your TC values look a little high and probably need refinement once you get the rig moving, see the tuning tips here: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/steps-to-create-a-motion-profile.228/

    Today I took advantage of the dismantling for also paint the keys in red. I think that I might have to make a protective casing for the moving parts in case ...
