Arthur:

If you're reading this, thanks very much for the SCGT dual-axis fix!
It works like a charm with my TSW.

 I had downloaded, installed, and tried the original demo, and
couldn't get the controls to work properly, so I deleted it and had no
intention of buying the final product if this wasn't fixed.  With your
patch, I gave it another try and I'm quite enjoying it now.  I'll buy
the final version when it's released (assuming of course that your fix
will work with the final version).  Do you foresee any problems making
it work with the full version?  Any word on when it will be in the
stores?  

On a similar subject, I've had MS CART Precision Racing for a few
months (it was a Christmas gift), and I still can't get it to work
with a dual-axis controller.  Are there any patches to make it work?

Thanks again, Arthur. Your efforts are much appreciated!

The demo needs another controller fix.  Using the Microsoft Sidewinder
FF Wheel, you're unable to program the paddle buttons behind the wheel
to be your upshift and downshift.  I'm having to assign the period and
comma to upshift and downshift, then go into the MS controller config
and create a macro that tells the steering wheel that the paddle
buttons equal the comma and period.  This is not the correct way to do
it, but it works.  You should just be able to program these two
buttons right in the game.

Thanks
