Want to know if i'll be able to use my MS Force Feed back with GPL, i heard
that it doesn't support it, but can i still use it without the force?
Does a patch coming soon for the FF?

While there are no special "force feedback" effects, the wheel works
very well in GPL. The software selectable tension settings work fine..
As for a patch, I doubt it.

Don't destroy all of my hopes! Do you know that or do you just
think, there won't be a FF patch?

Sorry ronny, I guess there's always hope<g>, but given that the creators of the
sim do not seem interested in Force Feedback (refer to the various interviews
given after the game ...oops...sim was released), and IMO, GPL doesn't need
force feedback to maintain it's position as the finest piece of motorsports
related software ever written.

Happy Christmas to ya'!

Let's put it this way. . . From a conversation I had with someone from
Thrustmaster, Papyrus was in contact with TM regarding a "patch" for
Force Feedback for GPL.  All this means is that Papyrus is/was at least
considering it. . .
