3com gaming modem

We at Powersims.com have just posted a review of the new 3Com Gaming modem. From our testing, it looks like a winner! Click on the Modems section under the Hardware reviews area. We also have reviews of Game Commander from Mindmaker, Inc and the ACT-LABS RS Shifter coming up very shortly. So visit us often! Visit us at http://www.Powersims.com -- Scott B.

Is it true that brake and gas pedals are always on the same axis in this wheel? Or can it be configures otherwise (which is needed for tailbraking in GPL)? Thanks

In default configuration it is single axis. If you add the RS-Shifter... you can use separate axis. Cheers, Shumi http://www.rs2league.com

It seems I've seen settings for 2 and 3 axis (RC2000), but I have no idea what it means. I just got the ACT Labs Force RS + shifter last week. (just got SCGT, DTR, and N3 for Christmas...woohoo :) ) tia Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

Hello Ivan, Nice Christmas it sounds like =) If you go into your control panel and select game controllers, you should see the ACT LABS showing. Highlight it and select properties. There you should put a check in the box that says Operate Pedals Separateely and the you will see the Position (X), Throttle (Z) and Brake (Y). Just check it out and then when you go into the sim, such as N3, make sure you select calibrate joystick 1 and then calibrate joystick 2. I THINK, joystick one is steering and brake and joystick 2 is the throttle. Good luck and have fun! <G> Scott PA-Scott Powersims.com -- Scott B.

Hi Scott, It WAS a great Christmas :) So what you're saying is it allows you to use different calibrations for the different axis? Btw, I just read your review on the RS Shifter and I noticed you said that DTR was compatible (?) Do you mean in free shifting or legacy mode? Does it need a patch? (I know SCGT and Viper Racing do) (If you can't tell I'm away for the holidays, so I can't go check it out for myself/ I'm stuck reading the manuals and surfing on a Mac ;) ) Thanks ag Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

When gas and brake pedal are NOT seperate axis, the one does just compensate the other, which means u can never brake and use throttle at the same time, or u can never change really fast from brake to throttle. Ex: push gas 50 % and push throttle 30% mean u will in fact just brake 20%. For GPL you really need seperate axis to play with brake and gas in corners.
