It's not Racing Legends, but this little demo sure will kill the waiting
time. "Live for Speed" is its name.
Great physics, and online play. 2 tracks (road and rallycross), and 3 cars.

Holy crap, this is great!! Any more info about this? Is it a pet
project like Ruud's Racer, or is this a demo of a to-be-released sim?
Anyway, this demo is a must-download!

Well, I downloaded and installed Live For Speed, looks pretty cool, except
that I can't get it to work with my MOMO, no buttons appear on the axis
assignment screen for accelerate/brake, all other functions appear to work
well enough....I can start a race and slowly roll down the hill towards the
first turn, and turn in, but not much more from there  :o(  Sure seems like
a fun time, any ideas?

WHS, I've only had enough time to get in a couple of laps before I
disappear into work, but my first reaction is very favourable indeed.

The momo works fine if you disable split axis in control panel.

The authors will implement spilt axis in a later build.

Yup, and I read somewhere that someone had to unplug all his other
*** devices to get the momo recognized in LFS.

Combined Axis is the way.
You cant map any axis to accel/brak. They are default.

No, the reference to a later implementation of splist axis was an assumption
based on an a deduction, based on an implication.

On the support page of the web site, having to set a controller to single
axis is listed under "Known Problems". Being a known problem implies that
there will be a resolution to that problem in future.

For those that have a TSW or TSW2, you can use the Thrusmaster Formula T1/T2
with adapter driver to make it work with the game.  Driver is in XP.  Not
sure about other OS's.
