    Hello all,
    My name is Jeremy. I’m new to the community after using X-sim previously. I run a 2DOF rig with SCN5 actuators. I made the switch to SimTools because I could not get motion to work in F1 2018 with X-Sim.
    Now, however, I cannot get motion to work in either game with SimTools. I downloaded the plugins for each game and added them to the game manager. I assigned the axes and tested the outputs. All axes are working correctly and loading correctly when the engine launches.
    The game is set to UDP ON, but still produces no motion.
    Am I missing something obvious?
    Can anyone offer help or suggestions?
    Thank you,
    Jeremy

    Where did you get the SimTools plugin for F1 2018, as I was not aware the was one, just some discussion about the new UDP data.

    posted by "value1" on 9/7/18. Some people have had the same issue as me. Several others have had success. I tried the suggestion in that thread of removing the patch, completing a race, and reinstalling the patch. No luck. Any other help would be greatly appreciated!
