    Yes, I can't remember off the top of my head, but I believe in your C:\GTR2\UserData folder you will find a <username>.PLR file. In the PLR file there is a line that says something like WriteSharedMem or UseSharedMem. Chage that line from a value of 0 to a value of 1 and that should be it.

    The motion I can't get to work properly in GTR2.

    I changed the 0 to 1 in the plr file. And that got the actuator to work BUT.

    When you being to race one of the actuator is higher than the other and then once you actually start to drive the actuators just don't move :). They just make the squigy squigy noise and stay in one position.


    I use GTR PLUG in the force sender programe and in the force profiler i load up either Nima's GTREVO profile or Nima's bmwrace 07 profile and both of them have the same effect.

    I have tried the actuators using test tablet and the actuators caliberate fine.

    I just can't find any gtr2 profiles. I wanted to use egoexpress profile (basic) but that is rnr one.

    Any clues?

    Many Thanks,

    I have just run rfactor and the actuators work fine with this game. But with GTR2 is malfunctioning.

    Do you have to put the xsimplugin.dll file in gtr2 folder?
