TSW tweak for split axis in F1 2001/2002

Hello fellow racers, after a couple of very nice emails from Dave Jr. of Thomas Enterprises I finally managed to get my tswmod wheel working in f1 2001 / 2002 / FIA GTV3, using split axis. It's an easy modification, and I've described it here with a couple of pictures: http://www.schuerkamp.de/zope/hoover/racing/tsw Hope it helps some of you setting up your rig with these titles. I don't know if it would help with the USB adapter, but it works great when the wheel is connected to the game port. Cheers, uwe PS: Thomas has to be one of the best companies around when it comes to customer support. They never fail to amaze me with their helpfulness and patience.

Uwe, I've got a TSW2 and this conversion seems to be simple and easy. But does it effect split axis in GPL and Nascar 2002 once a new custom 3 axis wheel is created.

What was interesting in my case was that I was not able to get them to work in F1-2001 but they do in F1-2002 (split axis). My TSW2 pedals are pretty hacked up though. I rewired them to work as one with my Momo and now the accelerator is backwards and only travels 50% of the original Momo pedal (Z axis 0 to 1000) and my brake is on RZ (-1000 to 1000). Works like a charm in F1-2002 though. Glad you got yours working! Dave Jr/Sr and company are the BEST. I've spent a few dollars with TE ;) - David Cook "Uwe Schuerkamp" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Interesting..I always found the direct input driver to be the best but I always like to check the generic driver anyhow. DC Uwe Schuerkamp <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Papy generic drivers won't work in Win XP. I'm using a TSW2 with a USB adapter. I don't see a check box for "poll with interupts". Should I see it? Thanks ZZ

XP does not have that option in the controller screen. DC Richard "ZZ" Busch <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:pd4P8.20645$[email hidden]... > Papy generic drivers won't work in Win XP. > I'm using a TSW2 with a USB adapter. I don't see a check box for "pollwith
