CTFJ UTILITY--- > A.K.A. 'CENTER THE F***ING JOYSTICK'. ========================================================= This utility has helped my steering -immensely- with games such as LeMans, Driver, RC2000, OF1R, TOCA2, even DTR, etc.. You know the problem, large deadzones, sudden oversensitive steering, etc. (nod your head yes... thanks) I made a little illustration of how I use CTFJ to improve steering in these sorts of games and you can get it here: ftp://ftp.mindspring.com/users/rrev/ctfj.gif The utility is CTFJ, it is free, and you can get it here: http://www.stickworks.com Direct link: http://home.att.net/~stickworks/ctfjv320.zip [754K] It will make your steering hassles a thing of the past -if- you experiment with it. LeMans, for example, steers as well as any other game/sim on my HD at this point. There are other problems w/LeMans... but.. I use the instructions in the illustration and a lower sensitivity in the LeMans prefs, like 25-30%. I have also used it to tweak better sims like GPL and SCGT. I use a TSW wheel, but it works equally well with any stick or wheel. Particularly wheels. A big thanks to Bob 'Sticky' Church who wrote CTFJ and continues to improve it. -- * rrev at mindspring dot com *

B***** H***!, it makes Le Mans a whole lot better. Andi.

>B***** H***!, it makes Le Mans a whole lot better. >Andi. Yep, LeMans drives pretty well with CTFJ, doesn't it. Be sure and play around with other sims and CTFJ also, such as DTR, and RC2000. It is a fine utility, IMO!

I tried it too, but it screwed up my Logitech WFF. CTFJ had a document with a fix, but it didn't work for me, so I removed it and LWFF has worked perfectly since. I don't think I'll tamper with it for now; perhaps late when I feel ***ic :) Sunny
