RBR Demo - Reversing brake/throttle on non-split axis possible?

I finally got around to downloading and installing the RBR demo this past weekend (Rally racing does not really excite me, but all the rave reviews of RBR have convinced me to give it a try). My controller is a CH Virtual Pilot yoke and pedal combo (non split-axis) - gameport version. In RBR, the right pedal acts as the brake and the left pedal acts as the throttle. Obviously this is backwards, but I have found no way to reverse this setting in the sim. I have found no appropriate setting in any of the ini files... Any ideas? (Other than get a proper wheel/pedal setup for driving games!). This setup (although not FFB) works just fine in all other racing/driving sims that I play (GTR, rFactor, NR2003, GPL, etc...). Please help! RBR looks to be a fun sim, but I can't get my mind/feet to go along with the reversed brake and throttle pedals! Thanks, Pat

when you are in RBR, in the settings you change the device it uses somehow, go look at it agian, I wish I could do it right now but I dont have RBR on this machine (work) and no wheel either, but wouldnt that be nice? seems to me though, you drill down through menus options settings controls.... in there you see throttle (you will see what it has set already and in there you can click on the device it has set, to change it) not sure though. in there somewhere I know I saw it, or least think I did.

Thanks for the reply, Plowboy - But I don't think that is what I am looking for. The game is already using the correct device for brake/throttle - The CH Pedals. But it has it backward. Press right pedal and brake is applied. Press left pedal and throttle is applied... Kinda hard to get used to that! Remember, it is one single device (think of the pedals as a single joystick, where pressing the left pedal is like pressing the joystick left and pressing the right pedal is like pressing that same joystick to the right). Thus, I need to configure RBR to essentially change axis for the two. I believe this is possible in the newer patched version of RBR (via an ini adjustment) but I can't seem to find a way to do it in the demo.

I've got a feeling that this was an issue with the full version until they released a patch. It may not be possible to get around it in the demo.
Try DXTweak2 perhaps? Steve Simpson wrote: > I've got a feeling that this was an issue with the full version until they > released a patch. It may not be possible to get around it in the demo. > >
