    I believe I have the latest plugin/pointers file; 9/8/2018.

    I also tried to do a clean reinstall of 2.2.5, which was working fine before, and now that doesn't work.

    The joystick plugin still works in both 2.2.5 and 2.3, so It's probably something in my system.

    I haven't done a clean install of Windows in a couple of years, so I'll try that later.

    Thanx for your suggestion.

    Hi guys,

    I have just reinstalled simtools, but now the game plugin doesn't want to work.
    Before it was working this current plugin version well.
    It seems to be nothing to get from the game, but it is resetting the motors at starting the game.
    I had to patch in game manager, otherwise it has not resetting at starting the game.


    Any ideas?

    Cheers,
    George

    Hi Guys,

    I solved the problem, who has the same issue that no motion datas from the game, after installing new simtools - do the following:
    1. delete the xml file from the folder (C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\SimTools\GamePlugins\EliteDangerous64_Offsets.xml)
    3. run game engine and game manager as usual, after run elite. Game manager will give message about missing xml.
    4. close engine and manager and copy the xml file from the plugin zip to the same directory as before. (C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\SimTools\GamePlugins\EliteDangerous64_Offsets.xml)
    5, run as usual.

    That worked for me, I don't know why, but worked!

    Hope helps,
    Regards,
    George

    Guys,

    I have an issue with the current plugin: after I've docked any ground stations, the roll forces are disappear.
    The other forces are still ok. Has anybody got the same issue?

    Are you talking specifically about about docking on a planet? Or does it happen in space stations also?

    Mechromancer,

    So here is my experience:

    In the space, stations to stations no issue with roll. After I landed on any ground stations, the roll has gone away.
    Without restarting the game from desktop (not from main menu), I don't have roll in the space neither.
    If I land on any landable planet (not at station) the roll is OK, like in the space.
    If I start the previously saved game from a ground station, I have also no roll, till I launch from the station than restart from desktop.

    Is that issue exist at you guys?

    George

    OK, I have no issues with space stations. I can dock and undock during the same game session with no problem. I can also restart a game and undock with no problem...I still have all axes.

    I've only landed on a planet ONCE (I didn't have Horizons until recently). I docked and undocked during the same game session with no problem. However, I have not undocked from a new game session (after restarting the game), so I'll try that and let you know how it goes.

    Mechromancer,

    As I wrote, the problem only exist if you land on any planet space stations, not in the space.

    OK, I managed to land a planet station yesterday and I logged off.

    I'll see what happens tonight when I take off and let you know.

    I have no idea where a planet station is to get new pointers.

    It's maybe not about the planet stations. Simply after you dock on any planet station the roll has gone with that pointer addresses.
    The ship has still roll, but maybe from other addresses uses.

    Cheers,
    George

    just got my DOFReality P3, and struggling to get ED to work. It seems i ran into the same issues the guys before here in the forum had.

    Plugin and offset everything works fine, Game manager sees game, did everything i should and retry'd many times, its more then 3 hours now to get some movement. No data in tuning center when capture. Did try the workaraound mentioned above here with the offsets, no go....

    If anyone has a suggestion... would be great

    Cheers
