And I hate driving with the keyboard and just looking at my killer wheel. Does anybody have a solution? Thomas
Hi Thomas! Sadly I am too having the same problem with my Act Labs FF Wheel! I have contacted Ubisoft and they said with the upcoming patch that it should be fixed! Indeed my other wheel, Logitech FF, is only partially recognised by this game also whilst in all my other Driving games , GP3, GPL, F12000 Champ, NFS Porche etc etc both my wheels work fine! Go Figure! Hopefully the patch will work because the game looks great and the AI should be fixed with this patch also. Devon Hill Calgary, Canada.

I was told a solution. Some of my Leagur budiies www.simracing.dk told me that the game has a hard time detecting yur wheel if it is a USB wheel. But they provided me with a workaround. If you open your Gaming options in the control panel of Windows (I run Win98SE) and go into the properties of your Act Labs wheel, and leave this open, when starting your F1RC session it should work. And so it does for me. Not a perfect solution I know, but at least a functioning workaround. I hope this works for you too.

it's strange I have a USB actlabs and F1RC just worked perfectly, I had the problem with the demo (like hold the mouse button on the calibration scree when you move the wheel) but for the game it always worked great since the start. Did you try the latest Al drivers, and direct x ? "Thomas Soerensen" <[email hidden]> a �crit dans le message news: 9ck38h$l0g$[email hidden]...

What do you mean that the LWFF is only "partially recognized"? My LWFF seems to work fine with F1RC. In fact, I have it located on ID #2, as I use multiple controlllers for some sims (GPL, N4 etc). Actually, that's my only gripe about the F1RC controller set-up. I would like to use my TSW's pedals with my LWFF, but can't seem to get both recognized within the sim. Multiple controllers worked with F1RS and MGPRS -- Why not with this? "D.Hill" wrote:
