Rally Championship will support dual controllers :)

I e-mailed Danny Hartley at Magnetic Fields (he's a programmer) about support for two controllers at once - I use my TSW2 pedals on Joy-2 with an ACT Labs Force RS USB wheel on Joy-1. Although it was not in the plans for them to support this, Danny worked it in at the last minute! That's my idea of a company that is out to make their customers happy. My hat's off to Magnetic Fields ! Also - I asked him about support for accelerator and brakes on seperate axis. He says this will be supported as well. They call it "independant pedals". Oh, and BTW if you didn't know, RC will support Force Feedback as well. I'm really looking forward to this one :) David Cook

AND a USB wheel doesn't live on a joy port anyway

READ the post! The key is Joy-1 and Joy-2. GPL does it. It does make sense for those who have pedals that they want to use on the game port and wheel on either USB or Serial... David Cook

Wow terrific, I didn't know Rally Champ had FF, good to hear they added good controller support, looking forward to it as well. Seeyas on the track. --John (Joao) Silva

I agree. A Rally simulator can't be realistic if it doesn't support dual-axis controllers. Rally drivers are the master in trail-braking, heel&toe, using their feet like a ballet while controlling the car. I really do wish that RC will portray this, since nobody really has told ANYBODY about the physics. Nobody knows, nadda. No review, no preview that's not a hidden press release. -- -- Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you...
