You know what is needed?

We need a utility that would allow the use of multiple controllers as a single game controller. I have a Logitech Momo wheel that I use only the wheel and I use the pedals that my brother0in-law made that are connected to an Act Labs force RS and I also have an Act Labs USB Shifter. It would be nice to have a peice of software that would allow one to say I want a device that is made up of these other devices and makes this device, so that one could use the configuration they want with games that can not do this on their own. Anyone want to write it? SLG (All spelling errors are intentional and are there to show new and improved ways of spelling old words. Grammatical errors are due to too many English classes/teachers)

Steve - the truth is we shouldn't be in need of such a device! AND we wouldn't if the noddy software companies that produce what some people in ras laughable call racing sims, had a forking clue. Oh well, we can live in had I suppose. Cheers Gerry

You're right. We _shouldn't_ need it. But we do. -Larry "Gerry Aitken" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

If I'm not mistaken, CH has this sort of utility for their controllers, where you can make it all appear as one device. It's doable, it just takes some one to write it. I don't think there is demand for it since most "real" sims like GPL, F1 200x, etc, support multiple controllers. -- karkrazy AT softhome DOT net http://karkrazy.m4driving.sm

Yeah, QuickJoy. Unfortunately, it has never been updated to work with 2K/XP. This is something the Wingman Software does well. When you select a controller, it automatically moves it to the top controller position. -Larry "Dameon" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
