Hi

I am about to lash out and buy a thrustmaster t2.  I have heard of people
having troubles with getting the pedals to work with monster truck
madness.

Has anyone successfully used the t2 with mtm including gear changer and
pedals.  

When you install the game microsoft specifically mention the t2 while you
wait.

I am assuming that icr2 and the t2 work ok together.

Thanks
Tony McEvoy

I just got the T2 (for I76) and it works perfectly with MTM and ICR2
Win95 version (don't know about DOS).

In fact, it works great with every racing sim I've tried, except for
Test Drive: Off ROad, whch is just a piece of shit no matter WHAT
controller you're using.

It works with ICR2 for DOS also.

Sure, MTM works OK with a T2. The gear changer works but isn't used that
much in the game. The pedals are much better than using an on-off switch
for gas and brakes. I can't vouch for ICR2, but GPII would not be nearly
as fun without a T2. The tricky part is to get the T2 configured in
Windows 95. My T2 is configured and runs OK but I remember having a
little trouble getting it to work the first time. Get one, you won't
regret it. BTW, playing Interstate 76 with a T2 is something you just
have to experience to believe.

Cordially,
