I have only started playing GP 500. Has anyone worked out a good way to
control the bike. I have a MS Forcefeedback joystick, it seems hard to
control with so many variables.
Thanks
Andrew
Forward on stick - accelerate
Back on stick - both brakes
left - left
right-right
spacebar -look behind
I use the MS Precision Pro.
I also use the above bike view. You cannot see enough of the track using the
on-bike view. There is more***pit than anything else.
Start on the NS500V. The fours are tough to learn on. The twins allow for a
gentler curve. You can then get more out of the fours. Though I have set
some better lap records on the twin. It is better under braking than the
four.
I almost always run a soft front. I run a medium to hard rear. And gear it
short. The bikes seemed geared very tall. Short gearing also keeps the bike
from wheeling so much coming out of slower corners. It runs through the
gears quickly, past the torque curve which helps loft the wheel. I have
never messed with the suspension.
I ran an on-line racing league for a while with that game. It is
outstanding. Though, you need a cable to run it right. 56K won't cut it.
Shame it never came to the states officially. EA World Superbike is horrible
compared to this game. And my years of racing GSXR Suzuki's didn't help me
much at all!
Good luck!

you're confusing me... EA - GP500? EA didn't make gp. But any way. Turn
off some variables. I never use lean controls. I've yet to find an
efficent control for that. Personaly though in all my bike sims (that
allow multiple controlers, which is most of them) I use....
Actlabs EagleMax
-button 1 (trigger) > gear up
-button 2 > reverse in GP500, lean back in SBK
-fliper up > look behind
-fliper down > gear down
-left\right > stearing
Steering wheel\pedels console
-Gas > Gas
-Break > Break
Need a "Y" cable for this but I find it works just great. Good luck
finding the one that works best for you.
