    I remove all plugins and now this open. I'm doing test and it seems to work perfectly even installing my custom plugin.
    Thanks for the reply :)

    Thank you very much noorbeast for your immense availability.
    That slow setup in slow out is already set and works fine.
    my problem is this:
    1 station on in position
    2 when I start a game, the arduino control system, makes a kind of reset and the station goes off and then on, for a brief moment, going back a lot too fast, to then work wonderfully.
    I suppose it is not successful for others, because they do not use engines with a low 16/1 ratio and therefore with a 50/1 this drop in the station is not felt for their mechanical brake of the 50/1 reducer.
    Is there any trick to avoid this?
    I still live with it, I turn on the loaded game station and solve the problem ...
    a peaceful day
    thank you for the great contribution you offer
    Marco

    Thanks for the 2.4 update, I haven't tried the new features yet but it installed over my previous version without any issues & seems to be working great.

    Thanks for this new update. I have been able to install it without problems and without being able to carefully test it, it seemed to me that the movements are more polished. Unfortunately, and as I have put in the Dirt Rally 2.0 post, some of us have not managed to make the movement work any more than a stage since the last Codemaster update. Cheers and thank you again. (I use Google translator)

    Gracias por esta nueva actualización. Pude instalarlo sin problemas y sin poder probarlo detenidamente, me pareció que los movimientos están más pulidos. Desafortunadamente, y como he puesto en la publicación Dirt Rally 2.0, algunos de nosotros no hemos logrado hacer que el movimiento funcione más que una etapa desde la última actualización de Codemaster. Saludos y gracias de nuevo. (Uso el traductor de Google)

    Hey Kranky,

    Its been a while! If you're loving this then maybe i should install it!;)
    Haven't been in the forum lately cuz I've just been buying racing games and tuning. Trying to get it perfect. Right now i'm still tweaking RF2. Hopefully this update will make it easier as I'm struggling to get it to feel as good as AC and AMS.

    Anyways, its good to be back. I forgot how good this community is!hug:[/QUOTE]

    Is anyone getting the bug that some of Linear Hexapod dimensions values are not saving? My Middle and Range values are never saving and go back to default values once the system is shutdown.

    Hi guys,
    I've had simtools working for years, but now I've recently upgraded the CPU and Mobo, and now NO motion data is coming through to simtools (And HexPod)
    I've reinstalled Simtools, Hexpod and plugins, games (Eg LFS) and I'm getting nothing. I'm not sure what I've done (or not done yet). Any guidance would be appreciated.

    Did you run a LFS race in first person mode before patching it for motion, as that is required to generate some required files.

    Just curious if the best way to update is to uninstall the previous version or just install over it?

    I currently have the demo version still installed. (Setting everything up).

    Just wanted to say many thanks because although I'm quite new here it seems there has been ALOT of great work done in the past and keeps getting better :).
    Also many thanks for the clear instructions written here in this post!

    It helped alot figuring out what all the different settings do.

    "Important notice to all AMC users:
    Please un-assign your AMC interface settings before the upgrade.
    Then simply re-setup the interface setting in the new AMC unified interface once your upgrade is complete."

    May I know how to un-assign AMC interface settings ? I am using AMC nano
