    hi there
    in the last couple years i had not that much time to drive with my racingsim seat.
    now i plan to change this
    but now i must digging in almost from the beginning.
    i almost play only two games: RRE and NFS Hotpursuit (and my kids love the roller coster sim ).
    i still have installed simtools V1xx. the motion of RRE has stopped work, NFS HP works just fine.

    so here my question:
    - can i take the same simtool settings (scn5) and use it for simtools v2?
    - nfs hp does not have a v2 plugin, does v1 plugins work with simtools v2?
    - by the way if a dev make a plugin for the new nfs hotpursuit i will buy him the game on steam

    thanks

    andy

    Plugins made for SimTools 1.3 will not work in SimTools 2.

    SimTools 2 needs a clean install and you should remove all files from 1.3, which means settings as well.

    You could take some screenshots and use them as a starting point, but redoing motion profiles is the best was to get the most out of SimTools 2.

    SimTools 2 Input Settings are different to 1.3: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/simtools-2-input-settings.294/
