Re: Before I buy F12002

I don't know if this will fix your problem, but what I do is ALWAYS visit the option screen when I first boot up F1 2001. I check the gas and brake and if those are good, the rest seem to work as well. If they don't respond. I exit, reload my wheel/pedal software, and reload F1 2001. As long as I remember to check first I don't seem to have any problems. dave henrie "Richard S Beckett" <richardDOTbeckettATmotorolaDOTcom@spamkiller> wrote in message news:afc6r8$[email hidden]...

I noticed that I have the same problem with the demo. I read in another thread you started that you've been needing to use DXTweak to get your pedals to work correctly? Well, that part has been fixed, finally. Jason

I have the same problem with my MSFF. I had it in 2001, the 2002 (demo) and Yes Richard, Im sorry, but full 2002 version as well. Fortunately for me i dont do the season thing, but it is frustrating as reloading the trach each time is frustrating. I thought this was a local problem as I havent seen others posting it, but if you have it too I guess its a bug. I almost garantee three attempt to load before it finds my wheel calibration., but when it doeas its fine.....go figure!!! cheers

Find different ways to exit F1 2001/2 i.e. if you regularly go right to the replay, don't. Write yourself a note, and comeback and reload. If you don't bother with replays, they try one...just find anything to alter the normal exit you do(without hurting your system of course!) Let me know if anything changes..for instance do the pedals loose calibration after viewing replays? Do the pedals need to be recalibrated after a test session or a quick race....Lets try and pin down if it happens in EVERY instance or just after certain elements... thanks dave henrie

Controller config in F12002 works perfectly for me and my Ferrari wheel. David G Fisher "Richard S Beckett" <richardDOTbeckettATmotorolaDOTcom@spamkiller> wrote in message news:afc6r8$[email hidden]...
