F1RS and TM Sprint

3 posts by 3 people · 07 Mar 1999 - 09 Mar 1999

I'm trying to tweak F1RS to work better with my TM Sprint, but have not succeeded. The controls weel jumpy and sometimes a slight correction to the right will throw the nose of the car sharply like in an arcade racer. It seems like when I turn the wheel it first doesn't do anything because of the deadzone, then suddenly power steering comes and I have to turn back to avoid oversteering. Has anybody solved this problem or has good setups for a wheel? I have edited UBI.INI to WHEEL-setting and reduced the DINPUT.DLL deadzone into 2% but to no avail. - "If the meaning of life was printed in a book, someone would use it to keep the window open."

Hello Toni; Please re: to Me!! I have the exact same problem and havent found an answer yet either! Also I can't use my 'right paddle' on the steering wheel for gas! I have to use both "right-left paddles" on the wheel itself for gas/brake because I am disabled & can not use my feet! If anyone sends or you find the answer please forward it to me!! My 2 favorite sims are GPL & F1RS but I don't race F1RS right now because of the above problems. Any help will be really appreciated..
