Mine doesn't pull left, yet ! Try to calibrate your controller with the
"control driven calibration" option checked.

The motors actually yank the wheel left as I turn left..

It's wierd..
When I turn right I get the correct forces simulating resistance..
Any ideas welcome

Great game though..

Weather is spectacular.. adds another dimension to the strategy of Sim
racing

Seems you are not alone.

Go to the windows MSFF controller menu, and disable
the "map y forces to x axis" option.

I had the same problem with an ACT Labs Force RS,
until I unchecked that box

Get the same if I have the Steer Help below about 5%, and Speed Sensetivity
below about 30%. Putting both of those above those values seems to solve the
problem

Pat, the MSFF wheel doesn't have any force at all in GP3 without that box
checked.

Intersting.  Are you sure you have the FF scaling in GP3
set to 100%?

Do you have the default centering spring enabled?  I
think I had to enable it to get effects, but i have it
set very low (3%).

Try that.

I have an MSFF wheel setting here - I'll have to hook
it up and see how it compares to the ACT Labs.

All this does, on My MSFF is to turn off ff altogether.
Any other suggestions?

On my ACT Labs wheel, I have to have the "x to y"
box unchecked, and turn the default spring on.
I set the default spring to a very low level
though.

I have an MSFF wheel here.  I'll try to
get it connected and let you know if it
works for me.

I've got a Saitek R4 that has the same internals as the MSFF and my
settings below those and have no probs.  Could be drivers ?

Two days later and msff still Pulls left when going left.
Tried all suggestions in here.

Viper/Nasca4 worked first time.
What's wrong with GP3?
