Can't get NR1999 to load the Sidewinder ff Wheel, went to the Sierra sight and found out it does not support FF. It didn't say that on the box, I spent $200 for a Sidewinder FF wheel and another $50 for NR1999, spent all of X-mas trying to set it up, and for this. THANKS FOR RUINING MY KIDS X-MAS SIERRA!!! I hope you rot in HELL *** Posted from RemarQ - http://www.remarq.com - Discussions Start Here (tm) ***

Usually it says what it supports on the box, not what it doesn't support.

The MS Wheel does WORK with NR1999. NR 1999 does not support force feedback. That does not mean you can not use the MS FF wheel with NR1999. Create a new profile with the sidewinder software. Under the settings tab of your new profile, change the X-axis to combined and you should be all set. Let me know if you have problems. -/- Walk Walker >Who ever siad that it supported force feedback? >> Can't get NR1999 to load the Sidewinder ff Wheel, went to the Sierra sight >> and found out it does not >> support FF.

Nobody is going to say on the box: "We don't support force feedback". However, the wheel does work in NASCAR Racing 1999 Edition and quite well too. When calibrating it just switch the driver option from Papyrus to DirectX. Plus you also get two nice games in CPR and MTM2 (which your kids will probably love) that come with the wheel. Gary
>Usually it says what it supports on the box, not what it doesn't >support. EXCELLENT point!! Besides, personally BEFORE spending 200 hard-earned bucks on ONE game, I'd make sure it supported all the hardware I was buying. That ALONE is why I'm waiting on FF. Don Hancock "Gunner"

crit: You mean that it was out of site on the sight, or out of sight on the site ? It didn't said that FF was supported either. Don't blame Sierra for your own mistakes. ... It's in... and out... in... and out... in... and out... IN-OUT !! IN-OUT !!

Well to be fair the FF wheel will work with the Windows version of NR1999. It is only a problem if you need to run the DOS version for multiplayer ***. And the problem only seems to be with N2/NR1999 because of some bullshit optimization they did for online play. -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes. cisko [AT] ix [DOT] netcom [DOT] com >crit: >> Can't get NR1999 to load the Sidewinder ff Wheel, went to the Sierra sight >>and found out it does not support FF. >You mean that it was out of site on the sight, or out of sight on the >site ? >> It didn't say that on the box, >It didn't said that FF was supported either. >>I spent $200 for a Sidewinder FF >>wheel and another $50 for >>NR1999, spent all of X-mas trying to set it up, and for this.

Only in Windows the version, not in the DOS version or NROS. -Larry > The MS Wheel does WORK with NR1999.
