    Hy
    I was wondering if anyone ever tried to connect a motion sim with a console. Controlling the motion sim with an arduino or pi and somehow play e.g. Assetto Corsa on a XBOX ONE.

    The bigger question is if you think that it is possible. I saw a plugin for pcars but for other games?

    Thanks in advance

    Alright, but you still need a PC to process the data ..

    SimTools is a PC program, if that is what you mean.

    Yeah that was pretty much what I meant.
    I guess my question should have been, if there's a similar program like SimTools for XBOX or whether such a program would be possible. Do you think that consoles do have enough computing power for that?

    A tiny x86 single board or SFF PC should have no problems running SimTools, so that would be the easiest path, perhaps something like this: https://www.lattepanda.com/
