generic steerng driver in N2002....

Hi all..I have a TSW using W98se. How come the generic driver won't work in N2002? I am sure the direct input is better but wanted to try it. Used to work in N4. DC

If you ever get an answer to this question please let me know. I've been asking the same thing for 6 mo. now. :) "David Ciemny" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:JZeJ8.69151$[email hidden]... > Hi all..I have a TSW using W98se. How come the generic driver won't workin

I am succesfully running generic driver with my TSW2 cup wheel in Win98se. I am plugged into the gameport of a Turtlr Beach Santa Cruz audio card. In fact ,I started out running the DXdriver, and then switched over to generic. Wheel seems a little smoother with generics. BTW did you make sure to pick " Standard Gameport" under the Win98 joystick properties. Mine has two choices and Dave at TSW told me to pick "Standard Gameport", and not any other.

This will only work with pure analog controllers. The Papy driver won't function with digital devices, unfortunately. Most of today's wheel's, and all FF that I know of, are digital devices. -Larry "Gordo" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:adbvhl$i2o$[email hidden]... > I am succesfully running generic driver with my TSW2 cup wheel in Win98se.I > am plugged into the gameport of a Turtlr Beach Santa Cruz audio card.

Hey gordo..I do have my settings set to standard gameport yet I cannot use the generic. When I go to calibrate everything is blank. Strange like I said..it works in gpl and N4. Curious on your thoughts...BTw it is plugged into my Creative live value card.

I forgot to mention, In the settings box, you also have to uncheck the box "poll with intrupts enabled". Also I have no other controllers listed. I only have one controller on my list which I added manually. It was chosen as a "2 axis 4 button race car controller". You must choose "custom" when adding this controller. Hope it helps. If you still have problems, I suggest you call TSW tech support. They helped me install and calibrate mine when I first got it.

Don't worry too much about it. The only difference I noticed over the Direct Input setting is the dead area off center is less noticable to me. When I first got the wheel, I had a pretty bad dead spot off center. I played around with different linear and steering ratio settings until I got rid of most of it. But it's still there a little bit. A few years ago I went to Daytona to watch the finals of the "WON" series championships. The simulators they used had ECCI wheels and they let the public try out the sims the day before the race. That ECCI was perfection. That spoiled me for all other wheels after I tried the ECCI. Even the TSW doesn't match it. Too bad they don't sell them anymore, as if I could afford one...lol Ed "David Ciemny" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:k2TK8.5930$[email hidden]... > roger that..my settings are the same.

If you are using a digital controller, the Papy driver won't function. -Larry "Goy Larsen" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > > > David Ciemny wrote: > > > > roger that..my settings are the same. Just can't get that generic driverto

If I remember correctly, the true strength of the Papy driver is that it is optimized for online racing. I don't remember the details, but back in the days of N2 there was a lot of talk about how it was optimized to improve latency and work better with dial-up connections. Maybe Eric can touch on that because I forget the details. -Larry "Goy Larsen" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
