How do I gain total control of my throttle? For some reason the sim takes throttle control away from me when it wants regardless of what I want. I do not have any of the helps selected. This will keep me from getting N2002 if it is the same way.
Go into the "Controls" section of your options and turn off all the assists (throttle, brake, etc) NR2002 also has these plus a few more. The only "help" most folks use is auto-clutch. A.M.Tronic <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

When you are using keyboard style controls (on/off) the helps will be activated regardless. If you are not using buttons or keys for the throttle, I'm not sure why it's helping you.

If you're using the buttons for throttle/brake, the car would be undriveable without the aids on. Everytime you hit the brakes, they'd instantly lock, and everytime you hit the throttle you'd instantly have uncontrollable wheelspin. If you're using the stick for throttle/brake then I'd re-calibrate both in DirectX and in the game to make sure you're getting full travel.

Hmmmm. Methinks you wouldn't enjoy racing 2002 that much with a joystick. I got a wheel with N1 and haven't looked back, you don't know what you're missing...
