Trying to use my Wingman FF GP with GP3. When calibrating the wheel, I can't seem to assign buttons to any functions, for example the paddles to shifting gear. Most of the options are greyed out: I can alter force feedback effects, but button assignments don't seem to be allowed. I'm using Wingman 3.62 drivers, GP3 v.1.13. Any ideas?

You either have to get the decoded .exe (try http://www.alphaf1.com/gp3/) or set up the profiler to use GP3.icd. I recommend the former. -- Tony Whitley GPLRank +9.99 "On some laps I'd get as many as fifteen corners really right, but Moss, he gets them all right on every lap" - Von Trips after the 1961 German Grand Prix.
OK one last question about the LWFF setup - I have the buttons set, now I want to specify split axis. So I disable the 'combined axis' setting in the game controller panel, then calibrate in the game. Seems OK, except that even though I assign acceleration and braking to Y and Z axes respectively, when I go to calibrate, acceleration responds in the Z axis, and braking in the 'Z rotation' axis. Is this right? Same thing happens in Porsche Unleashed as well. "tony.whitley" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:G10q6.5315$[email hidden]...
