    Hi all!
    first things first: I´m loving Flight Simulators since C64 times e.g. Gunship, Janes CS, Falcon, IL2, ...!:grin
    Second: I think it´s a good thing to earn coins for posts, but i think the reward for the posts are way to less!
    Now to the subject:
    I'm flying DCS World and i builded a SimPit with bank axis full 360 °.
    I use x-sim so far, but i have some real problems. And now I´d like to try the x-simulator Plugin! :cheers
    I create a new post for this subject, soon

    Welcome @apointner.

    Your 360° flight sim sounds really interesting, I look forward to following your post detailing it.

    Hi,
    I'm from the US and currently based abroad. I have some knowledge of software, hardware and some mechanical design.
    I think I want to build a motion simulator.
    I'm still figuring my way through this site.
    regards

    Hi from Brisbane, Australia.
    It's been a few years since I heard about these sims but have never had room for one but I've recently moved and now I'm keen to give it a go. I've read through quite a few posts and the info and collaboration here is amazing! Thanks go out to everyone :)

    Hi

    I'm Tony (a french guy) and I just begin the BIG adventure : to make a 2DOF seat for car race games.
    So I'm a novice, all the mechanic part has been made by my cousin and now we are trying to interface rFactor 2 with Simtools in order to make our seat 'alive'.

    Our configuration is : 1 PC + Simtools + 1 Arduino UNO + 1 Sabertooth 2x25 v2 + 2 wipers motors

    See you on this site
    Tony

    Hello community,

    I get started the implementation of 2DOF and has just changed my setup Xsim+K8055 against Arduino+ SimTools, this is the right choice is not it?
    after the installation, I can move the motors in the module Output Setting, But in game running "game data input" are to zéro. Firewall and antivirus off.
    I did not find the solution, can you directed me please. I sorry for the translation, but it is the fault of google translate, he does not know speak English well !!;)

    Welcome @Dronneau.Y.

    I am not sure what you mean because of Google Translate but I think you want to change from Xsim to SimTools. If so start a new thread and post pictures of all your settings and what game you are using.

    Please do post your questions in a dedicated thread, rather than the welcome thread.

    I suspect the issue is the language settings of your computer @Dronneau.Y : http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/udp-games-produce-wrong-output-data.21/

    Once you have data output then run base setting for the Tuning Center and tweak your motion profile from there: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/set-base-tuning-motion-values-in-the-tuning-center.122/
