If anyone could give me a little advise I would appreciate it. I have been trying to activate the force feedback on my Logitech Wingman formula force GP while playing GPL (the greatest sim ever). I have changed the Core.Ini file as advised on a few websites but nothing changes. Do you need to replace the driver as well? The sites don't mention this. Thanks Greg

Thanks Are you sure you edit core.ini and not core.ini.sample? You can check by right-clicking then choose properties. To be sure you edit core.ini, open a dos prompt, cd to the gpl directory and type notepad core.ini. Also you need at least GPL1.1 Bart Westra
Thanks for your help. It turns out that after I checked the file extension on the core file I was altering it was .txt. After changing this to .ini the program refused to load. I was using no core file at all. This seemed really strange since I am also using the D3D download accelerator driver which I thought required allot of core.ini instructions to work. Seems mine works better without them. If I remove the D3D related instructions from the file the game will load and operate as it did, still without force feedback. I have version 1.2.0.2 and my wheel is the USB version. I love this game and have played the snot out of it for the last 2 years without the force feedback. After getting papy's Nascar 4 with the excellent force feedback feature, I went on a crusade to get this to work. Thanks again for any advise anyone can give.
