f1cs2000 dead-zone (again?)

I just read an old thread (Dec.2000) about the dead zone problem in this title (change a setting in a .PLR-file or something). When dead-zone set to zero, the program writes it back to 0.20 or something. Has there been a solution to this? A proper fix? F1cs2000 sits on my desk because of this (it's very annoying having to pull the wheel half-way until anything happens/even worse coming back into GPL after some time with it). I can't even find the title (or some support from them) on the EA-site. Call me stupid, but I couldn't find anything at all. What a dull site. Maybe I was at the wrong place, but they should have some clues in there for me... (And yes, I'm also using the Dx-tweaks from logitech? to set dead-zone to as little as possible in DX8.) Thanks for any pointers or info... -- JoHS, Norway

The only "permanent" fix i can think of is to advoid the steering options menu as the plague. The 0.20 value is only written back when exiting that menu. So find your preferred settings and don't even enter that menu anymore. :) -- Olav K. Malmin remove .spam when replying

That is all I know too. Setup your wheel, choose your FF options, get your graphics figured out...and THEN go and edit the file to0.00. Then stay away from any of the options pages. If you do go back to change wheels, etc, then make sure you re-edit the file bakk to 0.00 dave henrie
