Subject: Gravis Gamepad - Car Setups on Nascar 1 Newsgroups: rec.autos.simulators X-Newsreader: Microsoft Internet News 4.70.1155 Lines: 14 Hi, Does anyone use the Gravis Gamepad on Nascar 1. If you do, can you send me some setups for Talladega and Dover. I can't seem to find any that work. Also, if you don't want to send me some setups just reply to me and we can collaborate on our setups so we can get faster. I know some one out there races with a gravis gampad or something similar. C-ya, John O.

If it's the controller I'm thinking of, you simply cannot make it work well with our game. (And yes, I know we bundled our game with it at one point, and I firmly believe that was a horrible, horrible decision...) (For those who don't have one, it's an "analog" joystick that reports digital inputs. i.e. the possible values for the left/right axis are only three (LEFT, NEITHER, RIGHT) There is no smooth range, and thus the controller is worthless for our games...) ---Jim Sokoloff, Papyrus

I agree. The Gravis Gamepad is digitally operated. It will not work smoothly with any Nascar or Indycar game. You need an analog joystick or just buy a Thrustmaster Wheel. They are awesome and the company support is awesome!!! Henry Hohn
