    2. Firewall keep me warrning when I start simtools. do I have to have Internet connection for simulation?
    3.Do ı need to install LFS plugin or it is included by defaullt.
    4. I am about to quit working... (Sadeness :( )

    No internet is required.
    Plugin is included by default.
    What output interface are you using?

    Without an output interface SimTools is smart enough to realize it does not need to do anything.
    Lets give it some settings so that you can see stuff happening.

    First lets give it an interface.
    Use the NET output type and use these settings. (be sure to save)

    Now settings for LFS in the axis assignments. (be sure to save)
    exple2.jpg

    Now if you have patched the game (I believe you have if your getting a blue banner) you should see it work then next time you run the game.

    btw, with LFS, you must be in first person view in the car
    If you haven't read the manuals yet, they hold a lot of good info!

    hope this helps!

    There is program named "Game Engine Tuning Center" when I press ALT+TAB. But It is not reachable.
    What is this? I click 2 icons but 3 programs running.

    When started the SimTools Game Engine minimises to the system tray. If you right click on its icon in the system tray you can open the Settings and Tuning Center from there.

    @yeniuser right click on game engine icon near the clock
    tc1.png and then select tuning center tc2.png
    tuning center is a "feature" inside game engine.
