    Hello! It is my first time posting here (Sorry for any grammatical mistakes).
    I intend to develop a 6DOF Stewart driving simulator. I have built the hard part of the simulator and got the license of the SimTools.
    In the next work, I want to send the game telemetry data, including acceleration along the x, y, and z-axis and angular velocity around the x, y, and z-axis, to my upper computer and then compute the simulator motion via a washout algorithm. I have made some settings for Interface Setup and Axis Assignments in SimTools v3 for LiveForSpeed as shown in the picture, to export these data using UDP while running this game. But, I hesitate whether it is correct.
    So is there any thread indicated to get these dates, including acceleration along the x, y, and z-axis and angular velocity around the x, y, and z-axis through SimTools by UDP communication? 1.png 2.png

    Yes, I have successfully got the telemetry data of LFS by UDP. I am thinking about how other games, like Assetto Corsa and Dirt, could derive this data. Do I need to write my own plug-in, or can I get this data through SimTools UDP communication?

    There are existing plugins that just need to be installed in a licensed SimTools install, then a motion profile configured: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/steps-to-create-a-motion-profile.228/

    SimTools v3 plugins: https://simtools.us/plugin_library/

    SimTools v2 plugins: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/marketplace/categories/game-plugins.2/

    Both SimTools v2 and v3 can be installed on the same PC and use the same license.
