    Hello to all.
    I'm trying to build my first simulator .
    I was able to run engines , using Arduino and sc3 .
    I set all parameters as a tutorial .
    I downloaded live for speed .
    Now I do not understand 'cause I can not get the game data .
    someone can help me figure out where I'm wrong ?
    the version of Live for Speed S2 and 0.6j , and the version of simtools is 1.3

    You have created the Default Axis Assignment but you need to do one for LFS, which you select in the Game List drop down.

    I also tried this .
    I'm certainly not setting something correctly .
    question:
    when I'm playing , in tuning setting, values above the green band must move ?
    if the answer is yes , I tell you already that I will not move anything .

    it is possible that the plugin is older than the game ?

    Yes the numbers in the green band of the Tuning Center change when the game is being played.
    No, the LFS plugin is bundled with SimTools and works with the most current version of LFS.

    @yobuddy, @Pit or anyone else got ideas for further troubleshooting.

    The Axis percentages are OK, it is reported that Output Testing works, the patch path is correct, there is one screenshot showing the Game Manger turning blue when the LFS is running, but there is no telemetry in the Tuning Center.

    Actually the Interface Settings in the posted screenshot are not correct, it should be a C in the final group if there are 3 axis: [A<Axis1>][B<Axis2>][C<Axis3>]

    I am just checking that you are also closing the SMC3 utils before running the game.

    You should also post screenshots of your SMC3 Utility settings, in case there are mistakes there as well.

    Please post screenshots of your SMC3 Utility settings.

    Hang in there, other members will also review your issues when they have time.

    Ciao, prova ad eseguire simtools engine e game manager con diritti amministrativi.
    Quando il gioco è connesso il game manager ha la banda blu 'game connected' come nel post #7

    Try running simtools with admin roles.
    When game is connected, game manager label is blue as in post #7

    ciao, l'ho già fatto, ma non cambia niente.
    il problema è che non ottengo i dati di telemetria.
