    Hi,
    I'm not familiar with your procédures. Sorry for that and maybe for stupid questions.
    My aim is to run ATV Simulator VR and also EPIC Roller Coaster on my simulator which is a JCL V4 equipped with 4 D-Box and a Hyperaxis 100 Kg.
    I've downloaded the ATV plugin and the SimTool. So, do I have to buy a licence and will I be able to set the tool to run my JCL ?
    Thanks for your support.

    Yes a licensed version of SimTools is required to run plugins other than LFS, which is bundled with the demo version of SimTools for testing purposes.

    However the first challenge would be in working out how to get SimTools working with your sim, do you know what protocol is used to control the Dbox setup? Perhaps @yobuddy or other members could help out with specific advice.

    Or if DBox has an api to control the actuators, we could do it that way also.
    As far as i know, nothing is public on this information.
