Thrustmaster "Super Sport" questions

by Cary Martynui » Fri, 08 Jan 1999 04:00:00

Howdy all. I have recently purchased the THRUSTMASTER SUPER SPORT wheel
and pedal set, and have a few questions regarding its operation.

        Is there any way that this controller can be used in DOS based games?
For example, I have "Network Q Rally" and the wheel and pedals will not
calibrate at all! Is there a DOS patch or something to correct this
problem? It also won't calibrate if playing "Need For Speed SE". I used
to have a THRUSTMASTER T2 and it worked perfectly fine with these
programs.

        Any help regarding these problems would be greatly appreciated,
otherwise I have a rather expensive paperweight!

        Thanks in advance!
        Sincerely,
        Cary Martynuik

The Super Sport is wired with the gas and brake being on separate axes.
If a DOS game will not support the pedals being on 2 different axes, the
Super Sport will not work in pure DOS games.

For Need for Speed, check the readme.txt file for the game.  It seems
that alot of the NSF releases required a special joystick calibration
routine to be run to calibration may wheel/pedal combinations.  I think
the program for NSFSE is "JCU".
