They never add wheel controls and when they do there a pain to get working. Will not buy their products untill they get it right.
I absolutely agree that this is unbelievable! And the 44MB size of the demo just makes it all the more flabergasting that joystick/wheel support couldn't have been squeezed in there somewhere!!! Marc.

No kidding, but you have to admit the best "adding insult to injury" was the fact that it specifically supports the S3 Virge despite leaving out 3dfx and joystick/wheel support. Ouch! :-P Neil M.
