    Hello everybody. I have a problem with simtools, practically yesterday I set the various parameters (pitch, roll, sway and surge) and tried with the live game for speed everything worked perfectly. today i'm going to play and all the settings have remained the same on simtools but almost nothing works in the game especially the surge is stopped. What could it be?

    What are the Tuning Center values while the game is running?

    in the tuning center the value is calculated. could it be a problem with the simtools version or my pc not having enough power to make everything work? I've also noticed that full-screen LFS engines lose power.

    If the Tuning Center shows game data it would be helpful to see what it is.

    Is the computer set to English Local: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/simtools-language-setting-bug-change-to-english-local.233/

    Changing to full screen in LFS should make no difference on a average gaming computer, as LFS is a fairly lightweight game compared to more modern simulation titles, but may have an impact on a low spec computer, what are the specs of your PC?

    what I don't explain is why the day before everything was perfect and the day after it didn't go anymore.

    My guess would be accidentally triggering a Max/Min capture in the TC.

    hi noorbeast thanks for the advice. the problem was an unintentional min / max capture. I redid the settings now everything works fine. thank you very much

    If the motion feels too sharp and jerky then use slightly higher values in the Tuning Settings.
