Sorry to hear that, just know that it does work here V 3.30.532. First
time I've actually used the profiler. Most other sims I set the buttons
from within the sim. ;/

Cheers,
Rod.

The Profiler works great for me also. Using the Shift Key, I have 10
functions mapped to my wheel in GP3. And I wonder why I crash so much<g>.

What pissed me off was that GP3 would not recognize my pedals. I***ed
around with the thing until I got a right nice headache, took a break and
went online to check the newsgroup. Sure enough, within minutes I found the
no-cd patch fix, downloaded it and was on my way to practice. I feel sorry
for LWFF owners who might be unaware that a fix is available. I called the
owner of Interact, where I purchased GP3, and told him about it, in case he
gets any complaints.

Everything else works great, the forces could be stronger, but the steering
feels good with no deadzone and no real surprises so far. I thought I would
hate the moving wheel, but I became used to it quickly. The "adjustable"
***pit is a scream, that must have taken at least two of the four years GP3
spent in development<vbg>.

All in all, I'm enjoying it, but it's taking away valuable time from my GPL
pursuits<g>.

Grrrr.... >:(

The possibly really weird thing is that it recognised my pedals
straight off...

I also have v 3.30.532...

I *will* beat this thing. Especially since so many others have
done so... ^_^

Of course I might then lose my pedals... :(:(:(
