Use GPL with axis 9 and above

Hello

I'd like to use GPL with my act labs wheel but at the same time I have other controllers installed and it doesn't let me use my wheel in the controller setup screen.

I have seen in LFS that my controller is using axis 9 and above since the fiorst 8 ones are used by my joystick and joypad and GPL won't display axis farther than 7.

Is there a way to tweak some .ini file to do this or must I remove my stick and pad before starting the game each time which is a major pain in the...

Thankls for the help

You need to use the GPLShift utility at http://www.gplshift.dk/ which
allows more than two controllers to be used in GPL.  When you calibrate
don't forget to hit the arrows at the bottom of the callib window to
see all the axes.

If you're running Windows XP, go to control panel, game controllers,
properties, advances, and select you're wheel for "use with older games".

If you're running Win 9X/ME, change the controller id's so that the
one you want starts with 0.
