Ive just downloaded the N4 demo but am having problems with steering. The first problem is the car always seems to want to go of to the left(i have calibrated wheel numerous time) and the second being i dont seem to have force feedback even though i have ticked it and tried adjusting damping etc. Anyone help me on this Thanks Kev Barnes

i remember the demo doing that & the response was "thats the way the real cars behave". However, the full version does not have the same noticeable pull. it may be just a demo bug. -- Brian Grrrr baby, very grrr "Kevin Barnes" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:6eiI6.18932$[email hidden]... > Ive just downloaded the N4 demo but am having problems with steering.

well, i can tell you that nascars are set up to turn left, so need the fronts angled slightly to the right to keep them straight. set your linearity to near 100% and you wont notice it as much, but your steering will be as sensitive as the real thing. also get rid of camber and caster so you have a symetrical setup, itll be slow as hell through the corners, but easy to drive in a straight line. cant help with the ff prob, sry. pez Kevin Barnes <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:6eiI6.18932$[email hidden]... > Ive just downloaded the N4 demo but am having problems with steering.

Eh? sure it does. To get more force feedback, you can also try increasing the caster in your car setup. -Phasor "M5Brian" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:HDkI6.12728$[email hidden]...

Are you driving in Arcade mode or what are you doin'...? :) As I've heard it's normal and even planned that the cars pull to the left, because of their settings optimized for left turns. And my one pulls heaviliy to the left... :) Cu Markus
Eh? The pull most certainly IS in the release version. There's at least 10 billion complaints about it here. Well, maybe 1000. Would you believe, 100 ? Half of them are mine :) -Larry "M5Brian" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:HDkI6.12728$[email hidden]...
