MS FF + Ferrari Wheel slowdown on GPL??

by chim » Thu, 06 Jul 2000 04:00:00

I have been foolish enough to buy a MS FF wheel and expect to be
able to play GPL with it...
.. Well, come on! the pedals are nice and it's got a good feel
to it. It's just a shame about the pathetic frame rate.
I'm looking at returning it and getting the Guilimot Ferrari
force feedback wheel instead.

The question i wanted to ask is, does the Guilimot wheel do the
same thing?, is there slow down, is it as bad?.

Also can it be used to play GP2 & ICR2, i've heard that a few
people have had problems with this, or is it that you have to run
them from windows in a dos window?

Oh, while i'm posting can anyone answer this
I've got an
AMD K6-2 550
192 MB RAM
20 GB Hard disk
64 MB ATI Rage Fury Maxx graphics card.

In GPL I get about 25 fps max!!(openGL, D3d don't work)
(and thats if i turn all textures in the mirrors off)

Cheers,
Simon
