Cart PR Help! How to use joystick #2?

Cart PR Help! How to use joystick #2?

by Kevin Jag » Sun, 09 Nov 1997 04:00:00

        I've asked this question before, but got no response.

        I have a TM FLCS set up as joystick 1, and a T2 wheel as
joystick #2.  How do I get CART PR to use the wheel as its
controller?  I've done everything I can think of (even read the help
file!), but nothing seems to make a difference.  

        I'm not willing to switch the controllers around every time
I want to play, especially since CART claims you can use joystick #2
to play.  Any ideas?

I may be way wrong here, but isn't the problem in gettting win95 to allow
you to to be able to select different saved devices? A joyswitch may be the
best way to go.

The T2 has to be controller ID 1 for Win95 to see it. You have to change it
in the control panel.

In fact any Windows95 DirectX game requires that the controller (joystick
or driving wheel) be ID #1. The DirectX joystick applet shows that many
ID's are possible. But in usual Microsoft fashion that feature is not yet
implemented.
