I have a 2 problems I have recently purchased EA's F1 Championship Season but I can't get my USB MS Precision Pro joystick to work in the game. It is working in all other games I have but when I start a race in F1 CS with the joystick enabled the race begins with the steering wheel showing as turned sharply to the left and the car on take off immediately veers left with no control/input from the joystick. Any suggestions please. The other problem I have is the lack of a dash showing in SCGT. I replaced the original dash.mas with a 3rd party dash but even if I have my default view to the dash mode no dash shows up. I have added numerous cars and tracks and use banscene.mas. Am I missing something to get the dash to show. Any help here would be appreciated too. Thanks, Rob

Make sure you have the ID set to #1 in the control panel joystick applet. -- [email hidden] "Rob Hosie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > I have a 2 problems > > I have recently purchased EA's F1 Championship Season but I can't get my USB > MS Precision Pro joystick to work in the game.

Any suggestions please. > Have you calibrated it in the game yet? There are three pages of joystick options in F1cs2k. Make sure you have assigned the wheel properly. I also have a joystick physcially connected. If I forget to remove it in the control panel window then my LWFF will crank hard left. Make sure your wheel is the first, or if that doesn't work, the only device in the game controllers panel. > The other problem I have is the lack of a dash showing in SCGT.

Find the alldash2.0 patch...that helps(but it's a big dload...) dave henrie > Thanks, > > Rob > >
