Hey racing dudes

Say i got a prob with my thrustmaster t-2 steering wheel while playing
Touring car championship. What ever car i drive its going to the left.
Tried to callibrate it 328490832908 times but it stil wont drive
straight. Even installed the patch for 3248093820482 times but nope.

Anyone got an answer?

Greetings,

Mitchie Mitch

A couple of things to check:

Make sure you have it set up as a wheel (I know it's obvious but some
people still set it up as a joystick).

There is a utility available that changes the deadzone value in directx,
which has helped a lot of people with this problem.  I can't remember
where it is but I think a number of site have it available.  Hopefully
someone can give you an exact URL.  For now, try some of the big racing
sites (I think http://www.f1racingsim.com has it).

Download the ProPanel utility from http://www.thrustmaster.com.  It
seems to work much better than the Win95 joystick panel (well, with the
T2 anyway).

Hope this helps

Regards

Andrew

Hi Mitchie,

The answer is obvious I think. Your unit is totaly worn out!

Cheers!
