    I have the motionplatform from Next level Racing V3, and I want to have a traction loss actuator to get the right feeling. Is it possible to run Plattform Manager software for the motionplatform and simtools for traction loss at the same time?

    I believe there is a way to run the whole sim from SimTools itself.
    When they first came out I saw them for sale advertised as working with SimTools.

    Do you have any idea what they are using for a interface?
    An Arduino maybe?

    Using a serial port monitor, we may be able to capture the data that is being sent to the chair from their Plattform Manager software.
    With some of this data, we ma7y be able to figure out how to chat with the sim, and make it fully compatable with SimTools.
    Then again, you may just ask them is they have SimTools setting for their sim.

    Chat soon man!

    Do you know what communication protocol is used? If it can be interface with SimTools then it would be easier to just use SimTools.
