N99: Controller Problem

% This problem has gotten progressively worse. Began whereas occasionally when
% the game would load up, I would reach 'Practice', and my pedals would be
% inoperative. Shifters would work, but no gas. (I'm using a Thrustmaster
% SuperSport). I could reboot the system, and the problem would disappear.
% Now, the frequency of failure is greater than 50%, and I have to reboot at
% least 3-4 times before the gas pedal is recognized. The control
% configuration in the game itself looks ok, just doesn't work sometimes. None
% of my other similar applications have any problems at all, much less this.
% My first thought would be to uninstall the game and reload it, but I'm at
% the 21st race of a season, and in first place overall, so I don't want to
% lose that if I can help it.
% Any suggestions posted here would be appreciated.

If you are using the directX input for N99, you may need the most recent
drivers for the SuperSport
ftp://208.129.210.78/pub/library/installs/motorsports_13.exe

You may want to try Papy's generic input and see if the problem
persists.

work, but no gas.

Occasionally this happens to me too, and I just go into the Options menu and
recalibrate all the controllers again.  Sometimes I may have to go from the
game to the options menu two or three times, but it does work.  It is also
always with the gas pedal, too.  At least it is better than rebooting.
