    I have tried every scenario that I know and I can tell you that Sims Tools will not connect to DCS using two computers with a crossover cable. Could you please check it out and tell me why?

    Thank You
    Terry

    Value 1, Perhaps the wording I used was not right. I guess what I need to say is: Do I need to change some wording in my options.lua or maybe the scrip's.lua to get DCS to connect with the Sims for motion using two computers? My IP address's are comp#1 (192.168.0.10) #2 is (192.168.0.20). Thanks
    Terry.

    In your C:\Users\Terry Wells\Saved Games\DCS\Scripts you should find export.lua.
    Open this file with notepad and edit the line host1 = host1 or "127.0.0.1"
    to host1 = "192.168.0.20"
