Thanks to everyone who helped me with advice about controllers for Superbike World Championship. Eventually I settled on the purchase of a MS Sidewinder Freestyle Pro gamepad. As I was advised I have found it very sensitive. Is there any other way to alter the sensitivity of the device apart from through the Sidewinder Profile Editor? Changing the settings through this doesn't seem to change much! :) Any tips on getting the 'hang' of this sensitive gamepad would be very welcome. TIA. E-mail or newsgroups is fine. Maybe I just need more practice! :)) -- Rob.
Issue: How to master SBK with MS Freestyle 1. Adjust the "Range of Motion" to the Max. Notice that full throttle and brake then require a lot of twist-of-the-wrist. 2. Do not rest your arms on anything, keep them in the air 3. Practise 4. Practise more 5. Decrease the "Range of Motion" gradually -Sami PS. Be also sure that you really are using the SideWinder profile you just edited. The setup is a little confusing.
