I cannot get Nascar 2 to work with my Microsoft sidewinder FF wheel.  It
will not calibrate, the inputs jump from side to side.  I have downloaded
all the patches from Sierra and installed the BGN pack.  Still not luck  Any
ideas?

This is a feature as it is well known that N2/NR1999 will not calibrate
the digital FF wheels properly. This really kills any multiplay since
NR1999 has a Win version, but multiplay is only enabled in DOS.

That's because the mental patients who work at Papy have decided to NOT
support digital joysticks in Nascar2.  Looks like you'll have to BUY the
patch for digital joysticks....its called Nascar:1999 Edition.

Unfortunately, this will not work. MS FF Wheel is digital and N2's
calibration scheme is analog. MS FF Wheel works great with NR1999.

UNLESS you want to race online - which is the ONLY reason I returned
the one I bought.  I was hoping that by running it in a window it'd
work, but no joy for me #8^{ .  They promise N2000 (or whatever it'll
be called when released) will fix that.
