GP2 Anyone setup CH Pro Pedals Yet?

Whatta F*%#ing great sim! The driving model is best yet! But my damn pro pedals don't work! I've tried about every way to configure them, but nothing seems to work. Any other Pro Pedal users out there figure this out? I'd really like to know :)

> ... > But my damn pro pedals don't work! Well, I should've known better than to post without reading the FM...page 15, in particular! In short, you need to check the "Control Driven Calibration" option prior to calibrating...works perfectly! Please ignore my earlier post. Sean

> ... > But my damn pro pedals don't work! I've been having the same problem and I hate to say it, but I don't see any easy solutions... As complex as the control setup is, you'd think they would have covered all possible configurations! So, do I shelf it and wait for a patch, reinstall my T1 pedals (I seriously hated those things), or waste a call to tech support? Decisions, decisions... If anyone comes up with a solution please pass it along. Sean

After some frustration, I managed to set up my CH Pro pedals just fine. From memory, I think you have to select the "control driven calibration" button on the advanced control methods screen and it then lets you calibrate it for throttle and brake. (I'm assuming that's your problem). Andrew

If you are still experiencing problems, let me know. Best, Gabriel/Spectrum HoloByte & MicroProse support Official GP2 page http://www.microprose.com/gp2/

I choose "control driven calibration" then I set my Accelaeration to be "joystick B vert." and brake to "joystick B horz.". Then I calibrated and after about the 4th time that I tried to calibrate, it woked. I have saved the file so if you need it I can e-mail you my setup I think. hope this helps Mike Lewis

Hmm, I didn't use that option. The only problem I had was that I had to calibrate left/right the oposite way around to normal. Since l/r is entirely arbitrary on the left pedal anyhow, it makes no odds. What other problems are you (erm, the original poster(s)) having? Regards, James.
