    Hi there,
    I'm Taiwanese, I found there is no one doing motionseat business in my homeland.
    I got some friends invite me to build a company running motionseat business.

    I want to know is there any problem if I build motionseat and sell it base on projects I read here?
    is there License or Copyright problem if I took some codes and sell them?
    is that OK to sell a motionseat and bundle SIM-TOOLS to my costumers?

    As a Taiwanese, I use Traditional Chinese version Windows 7/10,
    Simtools doesn't work well on Chinese Windows.
    the DOF out put goes serious wrong.

    the solution is set the Windows system language to English and change the time format into DD/MM/YYYY( we use YYYY/MM/DD in Asia)

    there used to be another way to handle it: an App called Locale Emulator(LE), but LE was blocked by Microsoft recently.

    When I finish my project, Simtools v2 commercial version will be a part in my product,
    it won't make sense to ask my costumers to change language setting, hope it could be fixed.

    I believe this problem is because of the difference in period and a coma for numbers. (45.3 vs 45,3)
    And I believe this to be fixed in SimTools 2.0.
