GPL BUG: Can't assign T2 wheel to steering axis?!!??

3 posts by 3 people · 07 Apr 1998 - 07 Apr 1998

GPL demo will not allow me to assign the Axis0 of my T2 wheel to the steering, the demo is simply not detecting when I move the wheel back and forth. Joystick Calibration however works fine, shows axis0 movement as well as axis1 (throttle+brake). Also it *will* allow me to assign Axis1 to either steering or throttle/brake. I did try directinput and directaccess and also changing what joystick i had in directx, and tried removing the T2 adaptor. Same problem. This looks like a definite bug in the demo. rms

I had no problems...Does the win95 panel do anything to the setup? I have mine set as a 2-axis, 4 button joystick, and did not check for rudder/pedals. In CPR, if I choose Thrustmaster T2 in the win95 panel, nothing happens.....

I experienced the same problem... Are you getting stuck in the control setup panel screen and can't get out?? Same happened to me.. Pressed CTRL-Alt-Del TWICE to escape from program.. It seems that when the demo installs itself, for some reason it installs twice.. One copy works with no problems, but the other copy gave me the above results... Solution (for me anyhow), go to My Computer or Explore and look for the other copy.. It should work fine.. doktorB
