    If you are having problems registering SimTools, please download SimTools v2.3.1.

    Due to an unplanned update by our web-host, and some new security "features", the registration system reports it can not connect to the internet. :(
    Due to it not being able to connect, we fixed it! :)

    You can download the new version here:
    https://www.xsimulator.net/community/marketplace/motion-simulation-software-simtools.63/

    If you want to register a version older than v2.3.1, please download and unzip this file to your desktop.
    https://simtools.us/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/SimTools_Registration_Update.zip
    And use this updated version to register.

    If you are still having issues, please update your .net framework to the current version.

    Take care, :cheers

    I’m using a 2 year old version of SimTools
    How is the latest version different ?

    Is it worth messing around with updating ?

    Updating thisf
    Updating fixes some stuff and also is needed when using the latest companion apps like Game Vibe, but if everything is working ok for you then you don't have to update.

    Updates are pretty simple, straight over the top of the existing install, just say no to writing default values when prompted. But to be certain you can create a backup first: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...thout-loosing-your-profiles-and-settings.160/

    Give some further details: confirm the version of SimTools being used, try temporarily disabling any firewall and antivirus, while those are disabled reinstall SimTools and test while those are disabled.

    I did try that you said. Firewall off and no antivirus.

    Win 8.1 pro
    Tried both 2.3 and 2.3.1. And with registration update.

    ok guys, meanwhile thank you so much for your help.
    I managed to solve the problem.
    to those who may be interested, I indicate what I have done.

    I state that I had the problem on two PCs with different operating systems.
    a laptop with windows 7 pro operating system.
    a gaming PC with windows 10 pro operating system where I connected the dynamic system.
    both of them gave me the wrong connection to the internet.
    Solution.
    for the laptop I updated the net framework to version 4.7.0. problem solved.
    for pc gaming the version of net framework was already updated to 4.7.2, so I uninstalled simtools, I disabled all firewall security checks. I checked out simtools 2.3.1 and finally I managed to do the recording.

    thanks again for the help.
