The force feedback support in F1CS2000 seems very inconsistent. In the pits I can feel resistance from the wheel, but when I get out of the pits the steering gets very light and about the only feedback I get is from curbs or from hitting something. I am using a Logitech FFGP. All driving aids are off. Does anyone know if there is a way of fixing this, so that I can really feel the steering all the time?

No one has found an acceptable solution to this so far. Some people have turned up the "bumpiness" of the circuit itself, but it's a bad compromise, IMO. Hopefully, F1 2001 will have FF sorted out. Sorry... "Haqsau" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:BDV87.23651$[email hidden]...

Had the problem in SBK2000 and then again in SBK2001 but with these two titles the FF drops out completely after about 2-3 laps. Odd? I wonder if EA has a clich� in these titles?

Sounds like status quo for F1 CS2000... it's a lost cause when it comes to FF, IMO. It's one of several reasons I never bought off on this game. John Cauthen Haqsau <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:BDV87.23651$[email hidden]...

Even though those are both EA titles I don't think they were done by the same developer. Certainly the graphics in SBK2001 are far better than the graphics in F1CS2000. I'm not sure who did the SBK series, but F1CS2000 and the previous title in that series were developed by ISI, the same people that did the engine for SCGT. In fact, the FF in SCGT is similarly wimpy. Which doesn't leave me with much hope for F1 2001 frankly. :o( "Thom j." <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:eAY87.48975$[email hidden]...

What's really odd Haqsau is I have no FF problems nor have had in F12000 or F1CS2000! Only in SBK2000 & 2001.. This seems to be one weird anomaly! I wonder why? "Haqsau" wrote:

I have an Act Labs! FF Wheel. Whenever I go over a curb, I get a tremendous loss in frame rate. Not so when the FF is turned off. I wonder if it is an Act Labs! problem? Any ideas? Todd "Haqsau" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:BDV87.23651$[email hidden]...

I'm not having that problem, so I suppose it could be. The only problem I am having is that there is virtually no steering torque feedback in the wheel, except in the pits at the start of the game. Once out of the pits, the only strong sensations are from curbs and barriers. And all the other things I run into. ;o) "Todd Sorensen" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:mUb97.8911$[email hidden]... > I have an Act Labs! FF Wheel.

Whoops I think I posted too soon. I went back and played some more, and I am getting some frame rate problems like you are describing. But it seems to only happen once. The hard disk is being accessed when it happens, so I would guess that F1CS2K did not pre-cache that effect, but then after the effect has been used once it is now in memory and therefore I don't get a slowdown the next time. IOW, if I'm guessing correctly, it's a problem with the game engine.

I have no idea. Are you using Windows 2000? I have heard of some people having FF issues with that OS. That's about all I can think of.

No Hal, 98SE. odd huh? I have both ME & 2000 Professional but I'm extremely reluctant to install them as all the sims I have loaded run perfectly except for this little 'SBK' clich�... If you think of anything please email me.. Tia.. -Thom_j. "Haqsau" wrote:
