LFS S2 Demo Calibration Problem

by BRH » Fri, 08 Apr 2005 09:24:40

When calibrating my brake pedal in-game, it is always at least half-way
applied.  In other words, even when I'm physically not on the brake, the
brake is applied half-way in-game.  My throttle works fine.

I'm using TSW peds in conjunction with a Logi MOMO Force wheel (separate
controllers).

I had a similar problem in the original LFS S1 demo (brake was always on
- at least slightly) but I don't have this prob in any other sims.

Any suggestions on how to correct this?

Thanks!

Is it set up as combined axis in LFS? However it is set, try the other way.

Another idea is to calibrate the pedal in Windows.  I had this problem
with a clutch pedal in another sim.  Since it was all by itself, I had
to calibrate it in Windows and made sure it saw full on, full off and
had a half way point.

Another option; in the Windows calibration, fake it out so full on (for
example) is only pressed half way down (or visa versa).

That's all I can think of.  Experiment.

S2 has a hidden 'detect alien driver' feature that automatically applies
brake. This is to slow crazy fast drivers down to a 'normal' speed
around the track.

I'm guessing, since it *is* an alpha release, it screwed up in your
case. ;)

(Sorry, just ribbing ya, don't take it personally  :)   )

Try to calibrate in Windows while slightly pressing the brake pedal.

HTH, uwe
