When you mean GPL, do you mean Papyrus's Grand Prix Legends? I thought that game never had Force Feedback support, or did they release a patch (what version)?

The original version (1.0) didn't have FF support, it's true, but the current version (1.2) does. You can get the patch from here (make sure you get the right country): http://www.papy.com/gpl/download.html -- David. "After all, a mere thousand yards - such a harmless little knoll, really."

Get the 1.2 patch. You'll have to edit the text file and set FF to on.
