>> Logitech Force Feedback Wheel

>> Nirvana. No other answer. Great wheel,

>BOOOO HISSSSSSS ! *grin*

>Horrid Red colour !!!  Looks about as authentic as holding a dinner
>plate ! *laugh*

You are being serious? or have you never looked in a single seater***pit? :)

I give the big thumbs down on the RS to the wheel for being too damn thick-
it's not racing wheel- i feel like i need fluffy dice to hang on my monitor
if i owned one. The Logitech is damn close to the real thing, and the comfort
level and familarity of the deisgn is flawless.

Most (notice the word "most") programs that will run in a Windows DOS
box should be able to access the Thrustmaster Force Feeback wheel.  I
hope to get a list of games that will not work with the TM FF wheel
inside a DOS box.  When I do get it I will post it here.

There does not appear to be any native/pure DOS support.

% >the #1).

% Cool! I was ready to try the MS FF but I can wait til thanksgiving  to check
% the TM wheel. Do you have any unofficial info on DOS support. Like N2
% or ICR2 from a DOS (not reboot and not exiting to DOS) box within W98?

% Thanks
