GP2 & LWFF (Serial Connection)

Hi all,
Just decided to give GP2 another bash after a long lay-off and wanting to
see how good it still is now that I will be able to run it at full whack on
my new pc. Is it possible to get the sim to run using my LWFF wheel
connected via the serial port. I do not have the USB connection so that
isn't an option. If not I'll have to go back to my trusty old Thrustmaster
Formula Pro or my MSFF (if that works with it of course).

Cheers

Yeah, it works. You have to tinker with the axis settings a bit... don't
remember what I did exactly. I think you have to choose combined axis in the
wingman controller settings too. Oh yeah... Don't look for any ForceFeedback
tho! ;)

Warlock!
