    Hi been reading up trying to get nlrs 1.8 demo t work for my kids as they not reach pedals, just so they can have ago.

    i have done what i do with other plugins but after reading up seems there can be more to it.
    Im trying to find how to delete a plugin already installed to the game to clear it before i put the new plugin in.
    i can drop 1.8 plugin into updater and it asks to over write i do this but still nothing.
    it seem when i open tunning it shows no surge or sway to which i use but pitch n roll is there.
    i fire game up and get nothing.
    do i need to set max min to solve it button ?

    thank you

    what i have done now is unistalle the old version and just downloading the nlrs2 demo as feel prob better support as its abit more in demand. so will try the latest patch this time with new demo.
    i have read about the issues just gotta understand my issues after i try the new version now.
    but if can still solve v1.8 i will re install it anyway.
    see how i get on with nlrs2 :)

    Just to be clear you need to right click on the NL2 icon, select 'Create shortcut'. Right click on the new shortcut, select Properties and add the --telemetry to the Target path.

    yes demo 2.2.0.3 latest one on the site. i missed the part dont work with it !lol i must have missed the page to that one.
    but i have same issue with the nlrs 1 v1.8 load plugin and patch then it show in the tunning centre but nothing for the sway and surge what i use so guessing i need something instead of the 1.8 plugin ?
    i will uninnstall both then reinstall the first demo (old one v1.8) try again.
    lots saying it works fine some having the same issues.
    im not to botherd but my kids doing my head in ! lol (they no i got rig working now so they on my case ) doh

    is there a way to delete plugins from each game as ive patched and un patched alot n updated the plugin updater but never took a plugin out other than patch unistall

    In the Game Manager click the Patching button and under the Game Patching Path click the button Remove Patch.

    After you have unpoatched the game to completely remove a plugin go to C:\Users\YOUR USER NAME\AppData\Local\SimTools\GamePlugins and delete the plugin there.

    That what i have been doing just not the plugin bit which i didn't know.
    i have cleared everything and plugin again started from fresh install of nlrs v1.8 and put pluging v1.8 in updater.
    intalled ok
    then opened game engine and manager to which i patched game and again intsalled ok as per the other games have done.
    selceted axis assignment to no limits.
    then opened up tunning and selected nolimits.
    run game and nothing again.
    lights on the usb adapters are on but not flashing.
    i get same problem all the time.

    Does the SimTools Game Manager turn blue at the top and say Game Running when NL is launched?

    yes says game running and is blue, it feels like i have done everything right but its just not wanting to work.
    when i go in the and look up info it say v1.8 and the plugin is v1.8 i am running on 64bit and was wondering if theres another [plugin but i have tried lots now and i just get the same thing some don't work or install some do and i just get lights on usb adapters.
    its got to be something silly but all checks out normal and feels like it should run.
    i goto test and thats working i can move the seat.
    so far everything say installed and gives the impression everything is as it should be to run even to the game running.
    i did get a tiny jolt when i closed game once like it was connected but not launching.

    i h
    ave ran it on capture max n min ran track let run till end then i get values on sway turn up in the in the input bit.
    the thing i dont think is right is it says max min ifo in tunning centre is roll-pitch-heave. nothing anywhere else in the tunning untill i run the max min but then finds nothing like the others default.

    then if i open profile editor it says in the main window forces available heave -sway-surge. so that does not match.
    im going to do another fresh install and clear out and run it all again with a fresh max min run as im not sure ive done that when i no its a fresh install.

    there was a plugin i did try which had only sway-surge-heave that registerd on the tunning centre.
    might be worth me trying max min for that plugin its about only thing ive not tried.

    Sorry but I think some screenshots clarifying what version of NL you are using, which plugin and shots of all Simtools and tuning center setting may help, as I can't get my head around what you are now working with.

    i am now gone back to the original tread demo of nlrs 1 v1.8 thats the info the game tells me the version it is.
    ok will get some screen shots.

    i have got the game demo from the nlrs site.

    this is the game info IMG_9570.JPG






    this is the plugin i drop into updater which install correct and say so after dropping in ther updater. IMG_9565.JPG


    now i am finding path IMG_9566.JPG





    then i have patched the game and says installed ok. IMG_9567.JPG



    select game engine tunning and set that to nolimits and bring up the wrong axis. IMG_9568.JPG





    this is it connecting to the game manager. IMG_9569.JPG





    this is the profile edittor saying what forces available.
    IMG_9571.JPG


    now if i use the other plugin i found it will show in the tunning as sway and surge and heave but will still not work and every thing is the same with how it installs like i have put here except it looks right from the v1.8 pluging that is used here which looks wrong. but either way neither work and ive tried about 4 other plugins and it still does not want to work.
    i have tried the capture but and reset ran game on both plugins and stop and saved after and still does not run.
    all this time the lights are on the usb adapters but does not flash with talking info when game starts.

    i do hope this help solve a mystery

    These are the different plugin versions: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/marketplace/nolimits-rollercoaster-simulation-plugin.31/updates

    This version only supports surge, sway and heave, so you need to have allocations in the Tuning Center for those forces and it can't find other forces as it does not support them: http://www.xsimulator.net/community...coaster-simulation-plugin.31/update?update=38

    I am guessing you have saved profiles from various things you have tried, hence why there are odd allocations in the Tuning Center. They are stored here: C:\Users\Your User Name\AppData\Local\SimTools\GameEngine\MaxMinProfiles
