Problem with CH Pedals and CART PR

Hi
I have the Thrustmaster GP1 and am using the CH Pedals with the convertor
between them.  They calibrate fine in the control panel, but when I am in
CART PR, the brake pedal does not seem to work.  When using the gas pedal,
if I ease off on it, it starts breaking.  If I use the padels on the wheel,
they work fine.  I have tried lots of different options in the game, but
nothing seems to help.  A friend of mine has the same setup, and he is
experiencing the same problems.
I am presently using My AWE32 gameport and am using DirectX 5.
Any suggestions would be helpful
Thanx

CART PR (Public Relations? 8^) uses only one joystick (WHY?!).
You have to use an adapter that puts the GP1 and the CH Pedals on one
joystick. And you have to put the little switch on the CH Pedals to
plane mode (one axis).

Damn, I miss the possibility to use the pedals on the GP1 for shifting
gears! Anybody listening?

   If you check off "use throttle control" under controller
configuration, it allows you to use a third axis for throttle/brake.
Doesn't quite solve your problem, but it gives you a bit more wiggle
room (and allows me to set up my two joysticks as a three-axis
controller and use X1 for steering and Y2 for throttle/brake).


Before you send me UCE, I know what you're thinking...  Did he complain
to five or six postmasters last month?  Now, you must ask yourself one
question: "Do I feel lucky?"  Well, do you, punk?
