I agree completely. Also, it allows you to check the effects on the wheel on
the fly by checking out the profiler.
But one thing is funny. After automatic calib of theLWFF wheel, my wheel was
not centered anymore. So I adjusted it using the tweak software. Everything
was ok�, but, when I get into real racing (F1RS) it's exactly where it was
before tweaking:off centered. So there is something more than just tweaking.

DXTweak is a lovely utility from the guys at www.wingmanteam.com that allows
you to "tweak" the max, min, center and deadzone values of your game
controller in dinput.dll. It alters the values generated during calibration
and can be used to make a wheel or joystick more or less sensitive than you
could ordinarily make it with calibrating tricks or software profilers. You
can also reduce or remove the default Windows deazone, which is a must for
using ANY wheel. All in all, a necessary item in your sim-racing toolkit!

Very interesting; I find the DXTweak changes quite significant. However,
I'm not using the profiler; just drivers-only. I believe the profiler
overrides the dinput values, so that may explain the difference. As to what
DZ values correspond to low, medium, and high in the profiler, I'm sure a
query to the folks at www.wingmanteam.com will answer that.
Cheers,

DXTweak and the profiler still confuse me. DXTweak actually does nothing at
all to my wheel response in GPL, with direct input at least. I can set the
deadzone to 50%, and it has no effect. The Profiler sure does though.
I sure wish the LT Profiler had better control over the deadzone. Low
appears to be 0%, while medium is huge. I am used to driving with 2% dead
zone, and I think the 0% setting is what screws me up when I use the
Profiler.

I've also noticed that DXTweak does nothing for GPL. (also by setting a
killer deadzone :-)). Go to http://home.att.net/~stickworks/ and get CTFJ.
This proggy definately works with GPL. And yes.., I've dropped the profiler,
since I couldn't find a perfectly linear, zero deadzone setting, which also
let me use the full travel of the LWFF.
