    Hello everyone, I am a Raceroom player. Raceroom underwent a game update in September, which updated some game APIs. As a result, my simtools v2 version of the game plugin cannot be used properly and there is no dynamic update. Do you have any good solutions? Or who can update the Raceroom game plugin for v2 to the latest version?

    Hello, I posted specifically asking about my Nanotec interface plugin, which does not have a v3 version, so I can only use simtools v2.
    The v2 version of the Raceroom plugin is no longer functioning properly.

    Sad your hardware is unnecessarily locked in some way by the manufacturer, do you know why they choose to do that and if they intend their own upgrade?

    This device is driven by Nanotec servo motors, and Nanotec can only exchange data with simtool using a special interface plugin. However, I only have the v2 version of this plugin, and I have tried many methods to get it done with the v3 version, but I have no good solution now.

    I presume that interface is by Nanotec, I am wondering if they would make it available to the SimTools dev @yobuddy, who I suspect would help out updating it for v3.

    The alternatives is to write a RRE v2 plugin, and be willing to maintain it, which is a significant ask: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...lugin-for-simtools-2-0-api-documentation.131/

    Or use the generic Joystick plugin: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...otion-plugin-and-vjoy-controller-mapping.387/

    Yobuddy has already helped me modify it once, but it was not successful. But I am still very grateful for Yobuddy's work.

    The Interface plugin has been transferred to v3 with one problem, unfortionaly they use code for a CRC that is unknown to us, and they do not respond to emails about it.

    (The new RaceRoom Racing Experience plugin has been posted)
