Re: Neutral settings in LW Profiler?

With the previous profilers, I found that medium settings were the same as running drivers-only. Also, while it's an extra step, using DXTweak to modify your end-values for steering before playing GP500 will make the wheel much more responsive and you can still run it fully linear. I close the end values in by about 150 on each end for GP500 (with my modified 270degree LWF). BTW, if you max out the end values for the Rally Championship demo, the steering actually works pretty well; I went from about 3:3X to a 3:12 by doing it. Cheers, Steve B.

Does anyone know which settings, for steering, brake,and throttle, you would select in the Wingman Profiler to have it do nothing to the linearity and response? Every time I've loaded the Profiler with previous releases, it has screwed up my GPL driving just enough that I fall off the track even more than usual. This hasn't been too big of a problem in the past, because I didn't need anything the Profiler did too badly. Although I did miss those shifted buttons to make lengthy apologies for crashing into people, without having to stop and type.... But now the Profiler now has the ability to set combined and separate pedals for each game. This would be real handy since I'm running GP 500 (can't use separate pedal axis), and GPL (need separate pedal axis). But I don't want it introducing non-linearity in the controls, which is what the Sensitivity setting in the Profiler seems to do no matter where I put it. Any suggestions? -- Kevin Caldwell Calgary, Canada

I don't think it's non-linearity that the Profiler introduces. It's the 2% dead zone that ruins your driving (that's the minimum setting in the Profiler). Use DXTweak to set it to zero and see if the problem has gone. Good luck, Leo
