    Ok pilots... I patched posityvely many games in the new SimTools 2.0, and the only problem (Game Manager crash) it manifested after patching R3E - RaceRoom Racing Experience!
    I patched the game normally... in the Game Manager dedicated windows is indicated "Game Patching" but when the game starts on Steam the Game Manager ends to function and crashing!
    Someone has solved and find a valid solution?

    Help I did not get any movement with this new simtool, I used the previous version and everything worked only I happened to this and it does not work for me. I already bought your key, and they did not give me a free test because I am my own simulator, it is okay to earn some money with this but bamos to provide the tools to work q well only achieve a mob to teach it and when to turn it off , And there is no other mob. I use the same comfuguracion of before based on the project of: RacingMat with arduino and plate motorcycle moster I do not know if it will be the arduino configuration. Somebody help me please, thank you.

    Hallo

    I am trying to configure my 2DOF seatmover with 100mm SCN5 from Prosimu. I was able to move only one SCN5 (right) and for sure I missed something in the GameEngine. The com operating is 3 (in Lince 1.4 which I used for iR and AC both SCNs were in COM3 with ID 0 and ID1) But in Game Engine it is impossible for me to differentiate them. I followed all manuals I found here, but still no success.

    I followed this instruction:

    d) SCN5 Game Engine interface settings
    Thanks @nclabs

    • Click on Interface Settings, Interface1, Output Type and select SCN.
    • Under ComPort, select one of the COM ports connected to you SCN5 (if you don’t know it, check the Control Panel on Windows, under the COM Port section).
    • Under Packet Rate select 10 ms.
    • Under Assignment Axis, select Axis 1.
    • With the Speed bar you can adjust the speed of the actuator, select a temporary value of 10.000 (value that you can increase after some testing).
    • With the Acceleration bar you can adjust the acceleration of the actuator, select a temporary value of 500 (same thing here, you can increase it after).
    • Now do the same thing with the Interface2, using the other COM port, and selecting Axis 2 under Assigned Axis (important!).
    • Last thing. Click on Axis Assignment, Axis Limiting and, to any axis connected with a SCN actuator, select a value of 90%. This is very important to preserve your actuator in the long term. Not doing this can lead to mechanical damage.

    By the looks of it you need to select the other com port on interface 2

    • Now do the same thing with the Interface2, >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>using the other COM port<<<<<<<<<<<<, and selecting Axis 2 under Assigned Axis (important!).

    This is what I think too but there is no such option like com4 or 2. My 2DOF is only on 1 USB, that is why in Lince 1.4 I used com3 with ID0 and ID1, but Lince is too jerky with Assetto Corsa, so I thought after watching some youtube video with Assetto Corsa and SimTools, that this software seems more smooth

    Both of your scn actuators need to have the id of '0'.
    And each one needs its own adapter. (and com port)

    Both of your scn already have power.
    One of them can use the adapter you have now, so you only need one more.
    @nclabs, this is correct right buddy?
