Rally Trophy Controller Question

by bertr » Sun, 17 Feb 2002 12:32:59

After reading good reviews about Rally Trophy here (especially
post-patch), and with it's imminent release in North America, I thought
that I'd try the demo.  Unfortunately, I can't get my controllers set up
properly, and I'm hoping someone here can help me out.

First off, I have an LWFF on ID1 and TSW peds on ID3.  Both are
recognized in the controller screen of Rally Trophy Demo, and I have no
trouble assigning various functions to the wheel, buttons and pedals.
However, when I start a race (specifically a Time Trial -- I haven't
tried anything else), the starter counts down, I can put the car in
gear, but then nothing happens.  The pedals are totally dead -- no
response at all.  This happens whether I try using the TSW pedals or the
LWFF pedals.

Ideally, I'd love to get this working with with 2 separate controllers
(or even three, as I also have the GPL USB shifter on ID 2, but haven't
tried activating it with this demo yet.)   But right now, I'd settle on
just getting it to work with the LWFF pedals using split axis.  I tried
hitting the reset button in the controller menu, in order to get split
axis (I read about this "trick" somewhere), but that made no difference.

Can someone help me in getting either set of pedals to work properly
with the LWFF wheel?  I want to give this demo a good tryout before
deciding whether to buy the retail game.

Thanks!
Bert
