    have been usung the iracing plugin for weeks now. But today when i log on and try and load up iracing in the sim rig, i get no motion. When i click "test motion" everything works as it should. But once in game, i get nothing.
    I have tried a full restart, redownloading the pluggin, and messing with the Min/Max settings.
    I am at a loss, and just want to play iracing... can anyone help?

    Has there been an iRacing update?

    Which version of SimTools are you using?

    no update that I know of. and v3 for simtools.
    I have narrowed the problem down to a program called "trading paints" used to see, and equip custom paint jobs.
    when trading paints is active, i am not able to get any movement. once turned off, all movement comes back.

    anyone else have any issue like this? or may know a fix?

    My guess is the additional program creates a port conflict, as 2 programs can't use the same port at the same time.

    The only way around that is if you can port forward between them, does "trading paints" have that functionality?
