    You need to do an Axis Assignment for Automobilista, the picture you posted is the Default, which works for testing but not for game. Each game has to have its own Axis Assignment.

    Have you patched the game for motion and if so to what install path?

    It would normally be Steam_Install_Path\Steam\steamapps\common\Automobilista\Plugins

    Once you do get it moving then you need to develop and tweak the motion profile: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/steps-to-create-a-motion-profile.228/

    I have Assigned the axis for Automobilista and patched the game for motion.

    I've used the following dir to patch the game: D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Automobilista

    Its working now :)

    Thanks!

    Installed and patched Raceroom experience but i get no motion.

    I did the same with rFactor 2 and that game works fine.

    Are there any know problems with RRE?

    Yes the latest RRE game update broke the plugin: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/raceroom-racing-experience-plugin.4782/#post-118051

    See my comments here regarding why it is not likely worth fixing the 1.3 RRE plugin this close to the release of SimTools 2.0: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...ing-experience-plugin.4782/page-2#post-118300

    There is a possible temporary work around suggested by @Erwan960 here: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...ing-experience-plugin.4782/page-2#post-118626

    Thanks for letting me know.

    Can is start tweaking the motion profile or is it better to wait for SimTools 2.0

    And are there any 2DOF SCN5 profiles i can use as starting point?

    You should definitely tweak the motion profiles.

    First to gain experience, as it gets quicker and easier with practice.

    And second because a dialed in profile tweaked specifically to suit your simulator and personal preferences is chalk and cheese in terms of far better motion.

    There are presets and you are welcome to go through them, but personally I consider it far better to dial in motion to suit your own simulator: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/categories/share-your-simtools-presets.150/

    I wonder.. would it be possible to disable certain motions, like Extra1 = Traction Loss (for example)?
