Excellent! Been hopeing something like this would turn up ever since I got
my latest USB joystick and FF wheel. Take the time to read and understand
the readme and you can tune out some annoying little problems easily.
Thanks
David

I don't think that works with Win XP. And that's been the problem for Logitech, and Momo
owners in particular. Te new Wingman stuff is a blessed relief and now my wheel is finally
centred correctly.
Good going, Wingman Team !

I checked out that CTFJ and they say it only works with Win95 and Win98 (and
I assume WinMe). I tried DXTweak2 and it works fine with XP, but too bad we
can't save it. It may prove to become quite annoying to have to run DXTweak
every time we reboot, but it's better than nothing.

That's a fair point, but it is still a Beta version. I would think the "save" option will
be worked out soon.

I wouldn't hold my breath on that one. From what I understood, the problem
is with Win 2K and XP and DirectX 8. It seems that they are talking this
over with MS, with hope that this would be fixed with DirectX 9. :(
However, I hope they'll find some solution for 2K and XP users before
DirectX 9.

At the least, could they save the settings to an external file and then use
DxTweak on startup to autoload them?

Yep.  It's a rather simple feature that really should be in DxTweak so us XP
users aren't screwed.
