T2 2-axis cheat?

3 posts by 2 people · 30 Apr 1998 - 01 May 1998

I just re-wired my T2 to have the pedals on separate axis, as per a friends advice. When I got the whole lot working, the Brake would'nt give me much movement in the calibration, about 50% of the throttle. When I went to the track, It was ABS...I could just hammer it down, and trail brake. Within 5 laps I was close to my best, actually a tenth away (1.07 .44), and I could not lock the wheels, No Way! I even checked the options menu to see if any of the help options were on, but nope. however, I sort of wanted to be able to lock the brakes, so I removed the pedal, adjusted, or re-set the pot, and now it locks up like hell.... I hereby state that with some controller tuning, one can be faster/cheat in GPL. If I spend a few hours adjusting that pot setting, I can probably come up with a setting that will lock the wheels up only if I press the last milimetre out of that pedal.... Any thoughs?

Why would you call this a cheat. I thought the whole Idea about setting up a brake peddal would be to have it that way. Anyway what difference would it make, I know exactly the point that the brakes will lock Go ahead adjust your brake pots, Im sure racing teams spend alot of time setting up the brake peddals in real cars.

sure, I did, and It wasn't meant that way. The "cheat" was an attentiongrabber:-) The problem is: it calibrates fine. How do I know I get full throttle? I did not have full throttle up until recently, and it made a huge difference. I have spent a long time setting up/calibrating steering, brakes and throttle, and it is paying off!
