Interact V4 FF and GPL

by Zen » Sun, 02 Jan 2000 04:00:00

I have recently purchased Interact's V4 FF wheel. Seems very good, but time
will tell how good.

I am looking for proper setting for GPL racing. The ones I use are the same
A. Hines uses for her Logitech Wingman FF wheel. Which partly explains my
problem .

Are there other V4 owners out there?

Interact V4 FF and GPL

I have owned an Interact V4 Force feedback wheel since last Christmas 98.
Recently I decided to update to an Act Labs Force RS with Shifter.
I was really e***d when I received it. Once I had the InterAct removed and
the Act Lab Force RS installed my problems began.
The force was not there. At least what I had come to expect after using the
InterAct. After a week of communicating  with Act Labs excellent techincal
support we came to the conclusion that the wheel was not capable of living
up to my expectations and that I should just reinstall the InterAct V4
wheel.  With great regret I packaged the Force RS and Shifter back up and
sent it in for a refund. I will miss the excellent extra features such as
the Shifter and the USB port connection but I am so glad to have V4 up and
running again.The Force is back.

I'm sorry to hear about Act Lab, but glad to hear about V4. If I may ask a
few questions..

What sim do you drive? GPL? Do you have specific settings? The reason i ask
is that some features do not give a feedback as expected, for example,
putting two wheels on the grass, whereas other more minute details are well
done. I think It might have to do with some settings specific to GPL.
