So I decided today to buy a new wheel.........the momo racing wheel by Logitech. Cool wheel....my first FF wheel. Anyway, I also decided to download Racer 0.5.0 final. Well...it workr pretty good. Problem is I have to use "Logitech wingman formula force (combined,ff). It only allows me to use the paddles. I prefer to use the stick. Any ideas on that ?? Also........when I use the "profiler" that comes with the wheel..it detects Racer as "Pod racer" and any attempts at changing the assignments yeilds choices that are NOT for this game. Things like boost, lift..WTF ?!?! Anyway...thanks for any ideas. Verne

I forgot to mention.......whenever I flip at all...the car gains momentum in the spin.....becomes real weird and settles...........high above the track and then slowly comes down to earth only to go THROUGH the track into some blue zone and sits there. ummmmmm, not normal. Verne

That's pretty normal for Racer 0.5.0 ;) It's the buggy and/or unfinished collision detection that does this.

They are located in data/ctrlsets directory. Probably someone has already made a controlset for the new Momo. You could do a search at the Racer forum (at racesimcentral.com) Nevermind the Pod Racer thingy, just make a new profile for Racer. That's a Wingman profiler issue... it detects "racer.exe" and associates it with some game called Pod Racer. - Igor -

There's a tutorial on http://www.racer.nl/tutorial/ctrlset.htm The latest Racer v0.5.2 beta's have a controller setup screen, which hopefully deals with most controllers in a simple way. Funny how the MOMO wheels keeps coming back in this way. Ruud van Gaal Free car sim: http://www.racer.nl/ Pencil art : http://www.marketgraph.nl/gallery/
