LOL. A little touchy are we? I never said that promoting X-Sim was useless, simply that your request has been heard and that as with all projects, there are many demands on the developers time. As I stated in my post, have some patience, it is likely that your request will become a reality. I seems to me that the continued bombardment of posts on the subject doesn't serve a purpose beyond the initial communication of the need, which again, is understood

I of all people, have an interest in seeing X-Sim communicate with as many devices as possible! That being said, I also have an interest in ensuring that it is done properly. In the "mad rush" to a solution, you guys are simply grasping at any remote possibility no matter how inefficient the end-result. I'm just asking for a little patience and time so that the end result can be optimal, not rushed. I am further illustrating that the development team here is not able to be pushed, lobbied or other wise manipulated into a foolish decision. The appropriate amount of time will be taken, the problem will be analyzed and a course of action will be chosen. Continued "lobbying" beyond the intial communication isn't going to get you anywhere any faster.

If there is anywhere that lobbying may be actually needed, maybe it is with iRacing themselves. Although I suspect that would be "beating a dead horse" as well. They too have acknolwedged the need for change.

Source of the existing plugin is no problem.

Is this because there is a new plugin coming? I think X-Sim should be the proxy, not some other software that could become commercial later, or may already be.

Yes, it seems like X-Sim is already the proxy. It is not clear why another one is needed.

What is the application license of X-Sim? It is not easily found on the Web site. Maybe that is why others are re-inventing the wheel.

Others are re-inventing the wheel because they want to have it their own. The problem with X-Sim is that you cannot make money off it, so a more profitable wheel needs to be re-invented.

- I guess...
