TSW Wheel, shifting problem in LFS

by DB » Tue, 28 Jun 2005 08:53:02

Hey all,

I use a TSW2 wheel and it works just peachy with N2003. I am having
a problem with Live for Speed S2 however. Sometime upshifting or
downshifting it skips a gear :/ This can just ruin you corner entry :)

Any one else having this issue ?

No, but there is no time delay in lfs so it changes through the gears as
fast as you click the paddle or button. I guess you have a dirty connection
maybe? Try assigning a different button or key & see if the problem goes
away.

I had similar problems in GTR and resolved them by replacing the spoke
wheel buttons with two old microswitches from an old competition pro
joystick.

All the best, uwe

I had this problem in GTR.  I returned the wheel to TSW and they
replaced the old screw-contact shifters with switches and now it works
great.  It's a cheap fix, too -- $35 if I remember.
