Have you got the pedal range of motion set to 'Max' in the Settings section of the Profile Editor? Steve Matthew B. P. Knutsen wrote in message <[email hidden]>...

Well there was no way I could adjust with those pedals. so I just used my old pedals on a USB adapter and all was fine. -- Vince Fisher

Hi Matt, >I mean, I keep losing the cars out of corners in 4th! I'm afraid I can't offer any solution, but to just keep trying. I have a new MSFF to replace my old TM F1, and I'm having the same trouble. It's taking me a lot of time to adapt, but I think in the end I'll get used to it :-) Feather touch, feather touch, feather touch :-) -- Cheers! Graeme Nash
This may be an idiotic Q; With my now deceased T2 I used to be able to get HIGH values when galibrating in GPL (several hundred somethings) and now I get mediocre numbers. I'm a bit frustrated as it feels like the FF pedals are more switch-like, the brake is okay I guess, but the throttle is just awful! Have I missed something really important, or have I just lost the touch? :-) I mean, I keep losing the cars out of corners in 4th! Thanks for any info!

I had the same problem with my MSFF wheel. but the i started using seperate axis on the pedals and then the numbers got twice as high. you can change that in the joystick settings DKCLAW

Yea, I guess it's an adaption problem. I am using split axis, but it feels like the throttle is "dead" for the first 50% of travel, then goes "on". Argh! I mean, I've spent insane amounts of time driving with my old T2, and now I'm stuck 2-3 secs off my previous pace (mind that was 1.0). Hmmm. :-) Matt -- ---------------------- The GPL Preservation Society http://www.gpl.netti.nu http://KOTR.de/gpl **GPLEA Member**
