It's a very good wheel IMO, and with improved pedals it's almost perfect.

It's very simple ... the Logitech plugs into your USB or serial port.
So it can be simultaneously active with a gameport wheel. Then just
configure it in GPL - it doesn't care which axis & device you use for
any given function.
Note: this may not work in all games, but several people have reported
it works fine in GPL.

The Nascar Pro stays connected to your gameport (you can remove the steering
unit if you want).
I got my LWFF this morning, set it up as per instructions (you have to keep
the LWFF pedals around... they provide power for the wheel) and ran the
installer (which updated the drivers and profiler automatically from the
web... neat!!). The LWFF is now device 1 in the Game Controller applet
(N-Pro is device 0). I got rid of the profiler as decribed by Sergey
Zakharov in his "Logitech FF & memory usage tip" message and fired up GPL.
It defaulted to the joystick(s) calibration screen, which now had two pages.
I recalibrated gas and brake (of the N-Pro) on page one and on the second
page, the steering wheel of the LWFF (axis 4 I think). All that was left for
me to do was to select the LWFF for steering and define it's button and
paddle fucntions. Bingo... few lines in the core.ini (see reply's to my
"Question for fellow LWFF users... <vbg>") and you're good to go.
BTW: if you were using an L4 to connect your N-Pro you're laughing all the
way, because it's V-Stick utility recognises the LWFF. With it you can mix
and match a controller for any game "on the fly", like, for instance,
Midtown Madness (only recognises resources from device 0 by default).
Good luck,
Jan./ your mileage may vary, of course.

Or you could just use the pedals that come with the unit. They just take a
little time to get used to.
If you put the Logitech wheel in the USB port and the T2 (pro) pedals in the
gameport both are seen by GPL. You should put the Logitech wheel as joy#1 and
the PRO as joy#2 in the Control Panel/ Joysticks program.
This is what I heard ;-)
Anyone with this setup that can confirm?
Jason.

And if so, has anyone had any success ? If so which games ? SCGT, Toca2, N2,
ICR2, GP2, ???
