RBR/ECCI no go :(

Anyone with an ECCI having any luck with the game? All reports seem to point to it not recognizing the pedals correctly. My brake is 100 on all of the time. I have to hold it down to drive, lol. No fun. Chad

I have the ECCI 3000 Trackstar pedals combined with an LWFF, and the combo works fine in RBR with separate axes. If you have to hold the brake down to drive, that sounds like your pedals were recognized as single axis? -- Achim http://users.skynet.be/AchimT

LFS gets it right, the papy titles get it right, GT Racing gets it 5Cright, so do F1C and RT with some hacking of ini files. It seems somewhat strange to me that such a high-end sim hasn't been tested on high-end equipment 8-P cheers, uwe -- mail replies to Uwe at schuerkamp dot de ( yahoo address is spambox) Uwe Schuerkamp //////////////////////////// http://www.schuerkamp.de/ Herford, Germany \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ (52.0N/8.5E) GPG Fingerprint: 2E 13 20 22 9A 3F 63 7F 67 6F E9 B1 A8 36 A4 61

I had the same problem on a TM Formula PRO (yes its old but it is my favourite!) With split axis the values go down as the pedal is pressed, so it can also work in combined axis. Most other sims can cope with this and recognise the not pressed value and the fully pressed value and assign accordingly. RBR seems not to. Out of pure obsession I rewired my pedals so they only work split axis now but the values go up for both throttle and brake - works perfectly in RBR and other sims. It was pretty simple - just swapping over the wires and linked terminals on the pot. Even my soldering skills coped. Of course doing this with a an ECCI or TSW rather than a �15 wheel on ebay may require more bravery... Cheers Tony

Hi tony, I can only speak for the TSW crowd, and the TSW2 requires hardly any soldering for maintenance. It's all nicely laid out, no problems at all even for me (and all I know about soldering is the end on which the soldering iron tends to get hot ;-) cheers, uwe -- mail replies to Uwe at schuerkamp dot de ( yahoo address is spambox) Uwe Schuerkamp //////////////////////////// http://www.schuerkamp.de/ Herford, Germany \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ (52.0N/8.5E) GPG Fingerprint: 2E 13 20 22 9A 3F 63 7F 67 6F E9 B1 A8 36 A4 61

I had the same problem, i switch the brake pot wires and was working good. Even no problem with N2k3.

This worked for me and my TSW / WinXP system. I used this fix for Live For Speed, but I wonder if it would also work for this game as well. http://forum.rscnet.org/showthread.php?t=117168 Bill Bollinger www.gsxn.com "Chad Rogers" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

My TSW2 brak pot has three metal ports. The white wire is soldered to the middle one, while the red wire is soldered to the right one. Would I need to resolder the red wire to the left one (which has no wire attached to it at the moment)?
