Thrustmaster Nascar Pro Digital 2/Crazy Taxi

I recently got the Pro Digital 2 steering wheel for my son and have been configuring it for him. I got it to work with 4x4 Evolution after I downloaded the new driver from Thrustmaster (vs. 313.) I am now trying to get it to work with Crazy Taxi. I configured the bottons in the Thrustmapper window and they work fine. BUT, I can't get the game to recognize the steering wheel or the gas/brake pedals. I don't see where I can associate the them with keyboard buttons,either. If I could just make the gas pedal respond as the up arrow key, or the steering wheel right respond as the right arrow.... But, I don't see how to resolve this. Any ideas, please?

I know nothing about the game, so have no idea what wheel support there is. Are you saying the game should recognize the wheel without problems, but it isn't? Or does the game not support a wheel, and you are trying to map the wheel buttons/pedals to keyboard controls that the game does understand? In the latter case, why not use the thrustmapper software to map the pedals to the arrow keys? Or have you tried that already? a little more info might be helpful. jeff [email hidden] (Shacky) wrote in news:[email hidden]:

Jeff, Thanks for the reply. I don't see in the games options where it mentions controllers at all. Since I am a bit new to the wheel I am not sure if that is a necessity or not. I did map the buttons on the wheel and that works great. I don't see in Thrustmapper any options regarding mapping the pedals or the steering wheel and that is where my problems are. The buttons work great, but the steering wheel and pedals are dead in the game. If there was a way to map them to the arrow keys I would be all set, but as I mentioned, I don't see an option for that.

It's been awhile since I had my thrustmaster, so don't recall the thrustmapper utility all that well. With my logitech wheel, you can remap the pedals to keys, just don't know if you can do that with the thrustmaster wheel. You may want to repost the topic, changing the subject to something about mapping pedal axis using thrustmapper. hth, jeff [email hidden] (Shacky) wrote in news:[email hidden]:
