    You need understand you have use force profiler and force sender programs togeter.

    First, you need select the correct plug-in first in force sender, right click over force sender and select Iracing. Then, you need press try send data. After this step, you need go for force profiler, load your profiler and the press start button. Now you cam play Iracing

    enjoy

    With my SimXperience commander to get iRacing to work I had to:
    - download a motion profile
    - set the EXE location to Internet Explorer
    - allocate the motion profile to the button
    and....
    - Click on the start button in the Force Profiler.

    Cheers,
    AP

    I'm afraid the translator software is not doing a good job. We still haven't received any details about your problem, or even a definition of what it is. I would like to see this problem so that I can understand your issue and get it resolved. Please PM me to arrange a time that I can remotely connect and you can demonstrate the issue.

    Also, if you have been changing X-Sim settings and do not fully understand them, it is possible to cause problems. If you re-install the Commander software, it will reset all of the X-Sim settings to the recommended defaults.

    Lastly, please tell us about your hardware.

    Problem solved. I remotely connected to troubleshoot the issue and discovered that an iRacing proxy had been installed and that it did not properly remove itself from the registry when uninstalled.

    In the future, anyone who has this rare issue, should run a registry cleaner as a first step toward resolution.

    In this case I cleaned the registry by hand, but I suspect that a good registry cleaner would have done the job.

    Hi Nima, Hi Bernard,

    after 2 nights of metal work, I wanted to try X-Sim at 02:00 am and get it shortly to work at 03:00am. The Commander did not work for me. Any profile does not work. If I start X-Sim directly everything is fine. Do I use the Commander, this profile, that worked before brings that message:
    [​IMG]

    I was looking forward to the proven IRacing profiles delivered with the amazing Simexperience package, bur no chance, because the whole profile is damaged after loading. X-Sim isn't asking for the left or right channel, so you cannot give it the right funtion. Do you have an idea?

    I would like to have some nice Iracing profiles, the hardware is just perfect now, only the profiles are lacking

    @Bernard
    You made an amazing job. Ordered on Sunday, the parcel arrived 9 days later. Some German dealers are slower ! Thanks, I will order again and make advertising for you :clap:

    This is unusual. Perhaps the serial numbers were entered incorrectly into the Commander?

    The best thing to do at this point would be to follow these steps

    -Run the X-Sim Registry Cleaner and clean all sections. The X-Sim registry cleaner can be found in C:\Program Files (x86)\X-Sim\Other Stuff\RegistryCleaner.exe

    -Make sure that the Force Profiler and Force Sender are closed

    -Uninstall X-Sim and uninstall the Commander from Control Panel-->Add Remove Programs

    -Reinstall the Commander. It will detect that X-Sim is not installed and will install it for you with optimal settings.

    -When asked for actuator serial numbers in the Commander First Run Wizard, please read the instruction carefully and ensure that you enter ony the parts of the serial number that are requested. A proper entry would be A3000100. Please do not enter any non numeric characters other than the A at the beginning.

    This should give you a fresh install optimized with my settings. From a fresh install, you should be able to click on rFactor, or GTR2, Race 07 , or GTRE and be able to drive immediately. For iRacing, you must download a mlotion profile from within the Commander and assign it to the iRacing Quick Launch Button.

    A new version of the Commander is coming soon which will make this process even easier.

    If this doesn't work for you, let me knw and we can schedule a time for me to remotely connect.

    This may be a similar problem to one I encountered when first setting up. The serial number printed on one the actuators was not the serial number recognized by the internal electronics. The real actuator serial was A3000426 but the number printed on the actuator and box was A3000427. It gave a similar error to above every time I tried to start. I eventually sorted it after a reinstall and I input the real number as generated by the actuator. I figured it out as the real number was in the second drop-down box (Select the port you would like to use instead) asking to be exchanged with. Dunno if its related? Try clicking the arrow on the drop down menu and see if it gives another serial number to exchange it with.....if it does and it works this would be the correct number of the actuator.

    Cheers
    Mark

    Hi Bernard,

    did everything like you described. First try, big success. Then after exiting X-Sim, the Commander don't let me start or modify The Iracing link, so I restarted the Software. While Starting there was the message Update... and the new version was automatically installed. After that, the old error was there again... :no:

    What message do you get when clicking the iRacing button?

    Also, please check your PM for remote troubleshooting information.

    Also, in case you overlooked the step of assigning a motion profile to the iRacing Quick Launch Button, please follow this procedure:

    Please click the + button in the bottom-right of the Commander to Add/Edit Quick Launch buttons. Then use the arrows to navigate to the iRacing Button. You will see a drop-down list of profiles. Please assign a profile to this quick launch button. After pressing'OK' to save your changes, you should be able to launch into the iRacing with the chosen motion profile active.

    Out of the box, the Commander has motion profiles pre-assigned to many of the quick launch buttons, but not all. This is done to ensure that everyone discovers the online profile database and the simple process for obtaining vehicle specif profiles and assigning them to buttons. The profile database is growing by the week. It is a good idea to check back often to see if a motion profile has been created specifically for your favorite vehicle. If not, you will find general profiles or profiles for a car with relatively the same performance specs.


    BTW, soon I will be able to post these profiles here. I am exporting all of the profiles from the Commander database and organizing them into a large profile pack for download here on the X-Sim site. I would have been able to do this long ago, but I lost the drive that had the original rn2 files on it.

    So, Skype and Teamviewer are nice tools and Bernards support is outstanding. I can use the commander now, I didn't see that some profiles had a note with stage IV that is an 3DOF so Xsim missed one Accurator when I loades that profile on my 2DOF. Thanks Berney, hope I can help you someday , too.
