Thrustmaster ACM Gamecard & GPL with Generic Input

2 posts by 2 people · 18 Oct 1998 - 18 Oct 1998

I can't get this to work properly. When I calibrate for generic input which I prefer the game plays OK, but I have to recelibrate everytime I start a game ( the game goes automaticaly to calibration and it chooses DirectInput ). And then if I choose Generic weird things happen. Game becomes very slow. I have to exit and enter again and coose DirectInput..... Any solutions? With my soundcard game port I can use both inputs with no prob. Borut P.S. Please don't ask why I bought ACM Gamecard!!

Are you positive that you have your soundcard gameport totally disabled in Win95/8? Are you sure that it isn't being enabled via config.sys or autoexec.bat? Is your ACM card's resources pointing to 201-201 and 209-209? You may want to try setting the ACM resources to Basic Configuration 2 (201-201 only). A few other things you may wish to try: Remove your game controller from the Game Controller/Joystick applet. I haven't tried this, but you may want to rename the controls.cfg file in your Players directory to something else and start GPL again and see if this problem goes away. % P.S. Please don't ask why I bought ACM Gamecard!! Hopefully it was for a damn good reason, like mine.... -- **************************** Michael E.
