For some reason, my previous posts about this question didn't post. (At least I don't see them...) So, if this is a duplicate, I apologize in advance: Although I've gotten the ActLabs USB Shifter to work with GPL and CM2, I can't get it to work with N4. (Haven't gotten around to other sims yet...) I have the shifter utility set at H-Plate with 4 gears, and have set-up each individual gear within N4. I can get going using the shifter (ie - the gas works), but my brake pedal is non-functional. It's not a hardware problem, as the pedal works in other sims with no problem. I have tried re-calibrating controllers within N4, but then the car doesn't move at all (meaning that the gas works, but the car stays in place, so I can't tell if the brake is working). Here's my set-up: LWFF on ID#1; Shifter on ID#2; TSW pedals (split-axis) in ID#3. This set-up works fine in GPL. Does anyone have a set-up similar to mine and is using it successfully in N4? Any suggestions on getting this to work properly (ie - having all pedals work) in N4 would be appreciated. -- Bert

Make sure you choose the "Direct Driver" in the Nascar 4 ---> "Options" ---> "controls" screen.. It won't work with the "Optimized" driver.. Good Luck! BRH wrote:
