MBTR and CH Pedals/LWFF - can it work?

On a whim after seeing a documentary on TV about truck racing I ordered Mercedes Benz Truck Racing (MBTR). (As an aside, Interact CD got it to me in 4 days from California to Canada with no customs hassles, thanks guys!). Anyway, it runs great on my PC, but I can't seem to make it detect my pedals. I have a LWFF but I use CH pedals instead of the original pedals. N4, GPL, F1 2001, F1RC and others have detected this setup but not MBTR. I have the LWFF on ID 1 and an el-cheapo joystick in ID 2, with my pedals attached. I have installed the 1.1.1.9 beta patch from the company site and I have DirectX 8.0a. I don't use the LWFF profiler (not that that should matter in this case). Any suggestions are welcome - I have my old pedals stuffed way in back and I don't want to keep dragging them out! Thanks, Rob

I've been trying to buy this game for, like, 4 months.

Dunno man, I'm in Canada. I ordered it from www.interactcd.com. It was something like $32 US and arrived in 4 days. These guys are great - I've ordered 3 games from them now and never had a problem. Gotta have a credit card, of course. "Larry" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:l7nG7.116811$%[email hidden]...

Maybe I'll order it from them.... I need to find out if it's ok under XP and a GeForce Ti500 (21.85 drivers) first. -Larry "Rob Adams" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:4MoG7.30094$[email hidden]...
