Steering wheel problem w/Nascar99 in DOS

After calibrating wheel, car goes left, when turning right, and vise versa. Any suggestions? I have propanel installed. Thanks -- harley23 AT mindspring DOT com

Sound like you have a new FF wheel. If so you are apparently just screwed. It basically doesn't work. If it does, you are lucky. Period. I asked Eric T. Busch in another post in this NG if papy was going to have a fix for this "feature". So far I have heard/read nothing. Good for them, I'll remember that when N3 comes out. -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes. cisko [AT] ix [DOT] netcom [DOT] com

Not with the MS-FF wheel I used. The calib-numbers jittered all over the place after calibrating. The car always veered to the right during shifting and even on it's own down the straights after you were in 4th. Are you saying you have a digital Force Feedback wheel which is calibrated properly in the DOS version of NR1999? I am saying you do not (in fact no one can get this to work properly). -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes. cisko [AT] ix [DOT] netcom [DOT] com >l8er >ronny >> > After calibrating wheel, car goes left, when turning right, and vise >> >versa.

The wheel works fine in win95. Only when I calibrate in DOS for multiplay, does it act screwy. It's a TM pro, by the way.

Oh, the misunderstandings never end... ;^) We're talking about two different problems here. In DOS & MS FF wheel I had the exact same problems that you have, but he had a problem you can have with ANY wheel under ANY OS. By steering to the right and then left you can invert the steering action in N2 and N99. Try it with the Win95 version of N99. l8er ronny -- How to get rid of censorship in German game releases <http://www.gamesmania.com/german/maniac/freedom/freedom.htm> |\ _,,,---,,_ I want to die like my Grandfather, ZZZzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ in his sleep. |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-' Not like the people in his car, '---''(_/--' `-'\_) screaming their heads off!
