    Hi,

    I've been trying to have NoLimits working well without any luck. I have everything installed, and NoLimit sends the data to SimTool fine. The issue is the Sim movements are not correct, jerky and strong.

    SimTools version v2.0.0.4 (DIY version)
    NoLimits 2.5.0.5 (64 bit)
    Controller board: AMC1280USB
    6DOF setup

    Here is a video showing NoLimits and SimTools virtual axis:


    and this video shows the sim working:


    I tried different settings for axis assignments, filters,...etc also set Main Level% to 50


    Thanks

    Did you capture the max/min values in Tuning Center?

    @morashidi
    your axis when read from left to right should equal 100% to ~120%.
    For instance your axis1 uses 235% of the axis in the pics you posted above.
    Since the axis how only 100% to give, your missing a lot of movements. (they are out of range)
    Lower the percentages used so each axis equals 100% to 120%.

    Then for this game, go to Game Manger, and set the Profiler Editors "main level" slider to 90% (or so).
    This will add a bit of smoothing to all axis and smooth things out for you.

    I use the same controller card as you ;).- Heave = 20%, Surge = 20%, sway = 20%, Roll = 40% and Pitch = 40%. Do not use Yaw - unless you own a 360 degree capable sim :) it will just mess things up. Also Sway and Surge have 10% smoothing.
