Make sure that you select combined pedals in either the profiler or the windows setup. Cheers Mark Fisher (Remove the wife to reply)

Hi guys, I bought GP3 here in the UK 2 days early, and was greatly impressed, GP2 was an awesome game, and all it needed was better graphics and it would've been a great game for today. However GP3 easily beats GP2 now, the only downfall I can make is that it is a lot easier to drive the car, in GP2 I was lucky (with my setup) to survive going over the curbs at monza, but in GP3 you can get away with a lot more mistakes like that... I have one serious problem with GP3 playing, I bought a Logitech Wingman Formula Force (FF) wheel and pedal set, and can't get the pedals working in the game, despite using the wingman control set provided on CD, and also I tried the no-CD patch as I thought that may help... I used to use my joystick, but as I ahev bought the wheel, I really want to use it, and it sucks not being able to use the pedals - Force Feedback works, and the wheel works - just I have no gas/brake capabilities... :(((( Thanks for anyhelp, -- Phil.

Correct! If you are GP2 fan buy it, but expect nothing more than GP2 with fancy graphics and weather. The GP2 gameplay is still there, but for me I was very disappointed that it hadn't all advanced further :-( Cheers Mark Fisher (Remove the wife to reply)

LOL until they get it going, I am using the GP3.EXE from the warez version (class), which at least works in combined axis mode ... > If you are GP2 fan buy it, but expect nothing more than GP2 with fancy graphics > and weather.

Mark, Thanks for the help, but I can't actually use the pedals at all - what do I select them as under the accel/brake device?? I have tried combined pedals, but am not sure if I'm doing stuff wrong, as I am new to the wheel/pedal scene - having used a joystick all my gaming career :)) Any pointers as to what I can do?? the wheel works, but pedals wont respond in calibration or game itself when trying to race...

Check the box in windows controller config for combined axis, also if you have the wingman profiler software loaded, make sure that the GP3 profile also has combined axis checked. In GP3 ensure that you select wheel as your controller or better create a custom controller select the pedals as Joy A vert for both brake and accelerator. Or load controller and look in the GP3 Cd under extras, there is a LWFF controller set there which should get it all running fine. I am off on holiday later today so have to leave you with it and wish you good luck :-)) but keep fiddling, just remember the wheel as far as the software is concerned is just a joystick so don't confuse yourself, combined axis will report to windows 2 axis, one for left and right (steering wheel and one for up and down (pedals) the same as your joystick. I am assuming here you can use them in the windows test panel otherwise it may be a different problem. Cheers Mark Fisher (Remove the wife to reply)
