TOCA steering: too big of null zone w/T2?

Damn, I just got TOCA and it is undriveable with a T2!  It's almost like
driving with a Gravis Gamepad, you're either steering all the way or not
at all!  Is anyone else having this problem?

  Many of the newer driving games, especially the ones that are Playstation
transplants have been having the same problems.   I'd bet driving with a
gamepad would be much better than a wheel in these games.  fyi.  My kids
gave me Destruction Derby 2 for Xmas,  with a wheel it too is unplayable.
What we need is another little program for our control panels that lets us
either adjust the null zone and sensitivity of the wheels or....have a
direct conversion program that reads our T2 in a manner that we think we are
driving and the cpu thinks we have a gamepad.

No problem with my Formula 1 (nascar pro in USA), and it is great, very
responsive. Check the joystick setting under TOCA settings.

You're right, this game is just a bit too sensitive for analogue devices
like wheels or joysticks, even on  'low' sensitivity.

There is a patch for toca coming very soon but i don't know if it'll include
a joystick/wheel fix. Try writing to Codemasters - they're very helpful
there.

I though so too at first, but you'll get used to it, after which the
control is actually quite good.

Make sure you select analogue, and not digital.

Hey "Peter Gagg" !
You burnt the following into my screen :

Sorry but this doesn't solve the problem ! (I did choose analog!)

Make sure that the joystick is set up in Windows as 2-axis/4-buttons. (Not
T2 or something else)

Sounds like you havent selected analogue steering from the front end.
Therefore your wheel will act just like a digital controller.
