Simucube 2 True Drive software feedback thread

We’ve seen this happen sometimes, there is an event on the back end that we see. We fixed one of the causes earlier, but lets see if we find another causes…

Hello,
I have the simucube for 9 months now, the first days I went on the settings ‘’ expert ‘’ directly, the feeling was top, these last days I wanted to test something else as settings, I went back on the simple mode and there surprise the basic settings in mod RAW / RAW and the force at the max is excellent with only 4 sliders, I have much better than in the expert setting, the steering is lively, precise, no latency in the steering, the only thing that could be missing is a little friction during countersteering, so I would like to know on what basis and how is this basic setting? Because from this base I switched to the expert setting and the rendering is absolutely not the same, the steering becomes less precise, how can I get the same rendering of the simple mod on the expert mod?
Thanks

We removed restoring of Window position - problem with that enable was that only a white screen was being showed with software hanging.

It appears that it may be a third party software that causes it. Namely, Nahimic device driver. It seems to be present on some Asus gaming laptops and motherboards.

PrusaSlicer has same types of issues:

It’s part of Realtek audio driver distro. And it can cause all kind of issues, like stuttering in games, high CPU utilization, etc…
You can disable it in Services.

Hi mika,
months ago, i made a post where i suggest to ( find and disable ) something like Legacy USB/Adaptive USB support) on Motherboards Uefi/Firmware. This happens on AMD and Intel. I have noticed that sometimes this behaviours can happens even when settings like HPET/Timings Res is changed and sometimes only when combined with USB Legacy/etc support is enabled on bios. Probably some USB chipsets/HUBs is more sensible at this settings. Check even (USB Power Down/suspend features) both bios and windows Power plans.
Hope this help.

Bonjour à tous,
Suit à mon message au dessus et sur le post du lien si dessous , j’ai mis à jour vers la version 2021.12
le problème est le même , en mode classic le high torque mode n’est pas activé, que ce soit dans le paddock ou le classic, quelle pourrait-être la solution ?

Indeed thank @Andrew_WOT you and I apologize, on my first message I posted in English and I did not receive an answer

I explain my problem, I would like to stay with the simple mode, because with the NM at maximum and the 2 sliders on RAW the FFB rendering is excellent !
The problem is when I create the profile the setting works only once, if I leave TD in the evening to turn off my PC or if I simply edit the profile, the high torque mode doesn’t work anymore, I tried to activate and deactivate it the result is the same, the profile doesn’t support the high torque mode anymore
I was with the 2021.9 I switched to the 2021.12 it’s still the same.
Thank you in advance for your answers

I wonder what is going on. Your description does not have all steps to try to replicate the issue.

I will try to be more clear, :grin:
In paddock mode or classic, online or offline, I create a classic profile with the 4 sliders, I set the NM to 25, the rotation of the steering wheel to 1080, the two sliders to RAW, I save it and play, everything goes well, at that moment if I edit the profile or if I turn off my PC, when I reload my profile the high torque mode does not work anymore, but it is displayed that the high torque mode is activated, I have to recreate a profile… and that to infinity, it is not practical and in the long term I will quickly reach the 10000 backups.

so there is no difference in toggling high torque mode on or off? That has nothing to do with profile management, it controls a completely different setting on the system, so I find it difficult to understand that somehow being the issue.

Yes, there is no difference between the high torque mode on and off, as long as I have edited the profile or closed TD

Is there a classic or paddock release that’s worth upgrading to? On 2020.07 since SC2 pro was purchased. Thanks in advance guys.

2020.10 and 2021.9 are two relatively stable releases.
2021.9 is also the last one supporting Classic mode.

Don’t blame me for not looking or trying hard enough, but…
Is there a way to make the True Drive window appear at one specific place and correctly sized?
It’s the main one appearing front and center on launch every time that I have to move and resize.

No big deal if it’s not doable, sorry if there’s a box to tick that I don’t know of doing just that, and thanks in advance if it’s in the work ^^

At the moment, that is not possible. There is a third-party program that is very buggy that causes restoring of the window position to bug out for many users. The result is that only a white screen is shown and the True Drive would appears as if it was crashed.

Namely, it is some type of an audio driver that is found on many gaming PCs.

PrusaSlicer has a nag screen about it as well:

You could try display fusion, you can get it on steam. I’m not sure if it does the resizing thing though

After a long time Decided to dust of the simulator today.

35GB of iracing updates, all windows updates, all related software updates, crew chief, wind simulator, etc. etc
Nividia update, running 1080Ti FTW3
All good

TD 2021.8

Then realisec I had to figure out profiles etc, after doing every this I run test drive on iracing

It loads

TD crashes and disappears

All my nvidia surround view settings are gone and iracing is on single monitor

So I reconfigure surround view, restart TrueDrive, restart iracing and same dame thing

Try a third time and all screens go dark and everything hangs.

I have been a supporter of simicube pro, could have bought leo bodner , so disappointed that I can get a stable release to just run the sim everytime I want to.

What is current solid release I can run?

Did you upgrade to 2021.8 and then you had this problem?

If so, try downgrading back to what you were using beforehand to see if that makes any difference.
