Yes, you are doing something wrong.
Is there a computer or a antenna on top right of the converter at start or end?
Do you use 2 PC setup?

[spyderwash]

use only one pc this problem happens to many users all appeared with the final version with the demo it was ok

Aand again:

Hi Sir ,
Will check this.Yesterday I had the same problem.Relaunched xsim and everything ok

[nosimula]

Sirnoname in my displays a computer. Everything works perfectly for about 20 or 30 minutes. It worked without problems in the beta versions. It was with the final version of the game that this started happening.

Computer is perfect.

So, from my source-code viewpoint you do not need to restart X-Sim but the game, can someone test this?

In fact i tried to restart pcars from extractor but nothing happened .The window saying that xsim launchs steam to let run pcars didn't appear!?

From my side I couldn't launch pcar from extractor .So I decided to close both extractor and converter and after that everything ran well.

So there are two problems: 1. 20 Minutes, 2. no second start
Make a workaround:
Insert notepad, start notepad with pcars plugin.
Now start steam and pcars. Plugin must work, however now check 20 minutes and check if pcars can start twice from steam.

Hi Sir ,
Made the setup you asked for above and below my notices :

1- i can't believe watching my cpu load with using the notepad app to launch xsim!! With and without Steam online I NEVER exceed 70% load .That means 30% cpu load difference with a normal setup usually made.

Just for information i drive with an OSW wheel with mmos FW and my pedals and shifter are stand alone joystick coming from my logitech G27(Leo bodnar stick connected in usb) .My shifter and my pedals are behind un usb hub.

2-after 25 minutes when playing my shifter didn't work anymore ( usb connection lost)

3-As I have shifter up and down on my wheel I could continue to play.And after 30 minutes when turning my wheel I just exited from the run ( it was like I pressed on the esc button ) .I could play again but strange problems coming from my wheel , the washers start with no action from my side .

4- I went out from the game and no problem to re-launch the game and again playing pcars.

As mentioned in pcars forum and steam there are some problem sometimes with joysticks and I know that with mmos software I have the unhandled errors when choosing a new track or a new car.

But the most thing informative for me is that when using notepad to launch xsim and separatly pcars with steam I can win 30 % cpu load with this method!! Unbelievible for me!

If you Start pcars with a launcher like steam or Xsim it is a child process of the launcher. So there is a taskmanager time period Problem because you get less cpu time. However this must be a type of raise condition because we use steam for a start. I check this after my holliday.
