    I want to enable and making sure to have the 25 percent limitation in game mode (not in test mode) but I am a bit confused on how. Is it in the math setup section? do we have to enter 25 0r 75 in percent limiter plugin iin the loaded profile ? iit seem 75 is more indicated , 25 wont give motion enough. The 75 value wont be OK if the percent scale is activated . Is this possible?

    thanks for the help

    You can find this in the SCN5 interface settings dialog. Odds are if you don't know where it is, it's enabled because it's enabled by default. I would definitely suggest keeping it on.

    Hi there,

    To enable the 25% limiter you need click on the 'Interface Settings' tab, then on the right hand side double click and/or open your actuators tab. Up the top of the window you will see the limiter box, simply tick it to enable the 25% Limiter.

    hope this helps.

    Thanks for the info but i thought that was only for test mode . I mean when you test the actuators. I was under the impression that the 25 % limit has to be enabled in the profile of the game we load?

    thanks for info so far

    Once the limiter is enabled in the SCN5 plugin, It applies to all profiles being used. You can also use the Percent limiter within the profile but it is not necessary of the limiter is already enabled in the plugin.
