GPl: Howaboout a steering dead zone of 5 degrees either side?

3 posts by 3 people · 21 Apr 1998 - 21 Apr 1998

Here's another one of my brilliant ideas: Since a lot of steering wheels have limp *** bands that do not allow proper centering, wouldn't it be useful to create an optional deadzone of about 5 degrees (or whatever you want it to be) either side of the wheel? OK Byron, and Co. entertain me with some more of your delightful flames.

Try this Chuck, use direct input instead of optimised in the joystick set up. Your joystick is then controlled from W95 which is the same as is available in every other w95 game. You then set up a wheel in game controllers. This is all that is expected from a game company having optimised settings and in game calibration is an unexpected extra that I am very happy about. If you have limp *** then fix your wheel. Todd.

Just a small question..... I have my *** bands unlimp to the extent that the steering wheel actually self-centres. Does anybody else have this problem? How do I make my *** bands go limp so that I also can belong to the limp *** bands brigade? -- Regards, Bruce. ----
