Sorry to sound dumb, but what extra features?

If you do not change the "original" config file and change the X-Sim plugin to simulate a D-Box it should work? (must be the one after game installation)
I only think that there is some money behind this support.
If this also fails perhaps a dbox forum gives some more answers, would be fine to get it working and we can change the auto install scripts for it.

You have only enabled the LFS compatible output with extradata=0. Codemaster is using the outsim TCP port but is missing the LFS outgauge TCP port.
This leads to a single connection with less data in LFS plugin, only the force datas.
extradata=1 is standard for dbox in a untouched config file after the installation of the game.
A entry in the hosts file of windows like
dbox 127.0.0.1
will change the DNS "dbox" to 127.0.0.1 and make the same as you would change the config file.
It seems any change to the config file will make a instable game. So changing the hosts instead of the codemaster file may make it stable.

If you enter in your webbrowser http://www.x-sim.de a DNS server will change this name to a IP 194.117.254.49 and connect to its port 80.
The hosts file of windows will do the same before windows ask the internet DNS:

The codemasters game have a standard config with "dbox" as host name instead of the IP 127.0.0.1
We know that if you do not change the config file all is running fine like by others without simulator.
So if we insert
127.0.0.1 dbox
windows "should" translate dbox into 127.0.0.1
