TSW Wheel, shifting problem in LFS

Hey all, I use a TSW2 wheel and it works just peachy with N2003. I am having a problem with Live for Speed S2 however. Sometime upshifting or downshifting it skips a gear :/ This can just ruin you corner entry :) Any one else having this issue ? Dave

No, but there is no time delay in lfs so it changes through the gears as fast as you click the paddle or button. I guess you have a dirty connection maybe? Try assigning a different button or key & see if the problem goes away. Malc.

I had similar problems in GTR and resolved them by replacing the spoke wheel buttons with two old microswitches from an old competition pro joystick. All the best, uwe -- GPG Fingerprint: 2E 13 20 22 9A 3F 63 7F 67 6F E9 B1 A8 36 A4 61

I had this problem in GTR. I returned the wheel to TSW and they replaced the old screw-contact shifters with switches and now it works great. It's a cheap fix, too -- $35 if I remember.
