Logitech Formula Force GP USB - Pedals woun't work in NFS - HP2 (0/1)

To the experts :-) I am running NFS Hot Pursuit 2 with a Logitech Formula Force GP USB, but the game will not recognize the pedals! For your info - the LFFGP set is running fine with all other games! I have tried splitting the reported axis, and also combined axis - both with no luck! All other buttons and axis are reported (and maps in the control menu) but the pedals... Help would be greatly appreciated! Feel more than free to mail me at [email hidden] Cheers - TheHooligan

If you are running the latest Logitech Wingman software, try selecting "combined axis" in the wheel's configuration. This is what I had to do to get the pedals to work in NFS 2. Alanb "TheHooligan" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

NFSHP2 does not support split axis. There are some text files in the controller subdirectory that look as if they could be edited to enable different configurations. That could be worth a try ... "TheHooligan" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I realized that my problem was mainly the "combined axis" - which i had disabled... I also had to edit a bit in the defaults.ini and definitions.ini... But now it is working! Must say that the force feedback sucks bad!!!!!!!!! Anyway - compared to Colin McRae it does! Thanx - The Hooligan

what exactly did you edit in the defaults.ini and definitions.ini files? Lee "TheHooligan" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I deleted all but this... -> It seemed that NFS was unable to dertermine precisely what kind of wheel i am running... So i eliminated the other choices :-) THIS IS MY Default.ini [joystick 0] name = Logitech WingMan Formula Force GP USB InputRight = axis 1 InputLeft = axis 0 InputGas = axis 2 InputBrake = axis 3 InputHandBrake = button 5 InputCycleCamera = key SC_C InputHorn = button 3 InputReset = button 2 InputLookBehind = button 4 InputShiftUp = button 1 InputShiftDown = button 0 InputCallBackUp = key SC_U InputCallRoadBlock = key SC_J InputCallCopter = key SC_N InputLookLeft = key SC_COMMA InputLookRight = key SC_PERIOD InputGear_Reverse =.key SC_MINUS InputGear_Neutral = key SC_O InputGear_1 = key SC_1 InputGear_2 = key SC_2 InputGear_3 = key SC_3 InputGear_4 = key SC_4 InputGear_5 = key SC_5 InputGear_6 = key SC_6 AND THIS IS MY Definitions.ini [joystick 0] name = Logitech WingMan Formula Force GP USB button0 = kTxtLeftPaddle button1 = kTxtRightPaddle button2 = kTxtButton3 button3 = kTxtButton4 button4 = kTxtButton5 button5 = kTxtButton6 axis0 = 0,left,127,0,kTxtWheelLeft axis1 = 0,right,127,255,kTxtWheelRight axis2 = 1,up,127,0,kTxtGasPedal axis3 = 1,down,127,255,kTxtBrakePedal

microsoft FF wheel gameport with Windows XP file default.ini [joystick (x)] name = Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback Wheel InputRight = axis 1 InputLeft = axis 0 InputGas = axis 2 InputBrake = axis 3 ... definition.ini : [joystick (x)] axis0 = 0,left,127,0,kTxtWheelLeft axis1 = 0,right,127,255,kTxtWheelRight axis2 = 1,up,255,0,kTxtGasPedal axis3 = 6,down,255,0,kTxtBrakePedal ps: (x) means last number in file list (like season.ini in GPL ;-) and "name" must match exactly the reported name in joystick configuration pannel. but really, it's no GPL.
