N3 Controller problems

by Tim Deatherag » Sun, 16 Jan 2000 04:00:00

I have a TSW2-EZ (Which has a wheel mounted paddle assembly instead of
Pedals)

The pots calibrated and set up well in the Game Controller setup in the in
Win98 SE Control panel and the 4 axis wheel setup works well in DTR

My only problem is with N3....it calibrates great in calibration as follows:

Joystick 1 Axis X = Steering,     Axis Y=Not used
Joystick 2 Axis X = Accelerator Axis Y=Brake

However, when I go to set the controls, it will recognize everything except
the brake (left paddle) so I set the brake as the 4th button. I tried to
tell the computer I was using a TM Sprint (multi-axis wheel with paddles)
and that didn't work.FWIW, I have downloaded all of the N3 beta-patches
through 1104. At one time, my TSW2-EZ worked well with N3. Has there been
any controller problems with the beta patches???

Any suggestions?

Did you try to see if checking/unchecking "polls with interupts enabled" on
joystick screen helps?
