Ok gang, I can calibrate the wheel just fine. When I select the brake or the accel, I am then asked to "brake" so I push the brake and nothing happens. I have tried this with joystick and then again with wheel selected. I can assign a keyboard key to accel and brake and the wheel works fine. Its just the pedals that don't respond. I have a T2, so if anyone could help I'd be grateful. P.S. The wheel and pedals work fine in N1.

Hi! Dunno how N2 works but are u using the litle adaptor that came with your T2? This thingie changes the pedals from beeing the hotizontal accis of joy 2 to beeing the vertikal accis of joy 1 - I think... Maybe this willl help. Marcus

Try calibrating joysticks first (bottom left of the setup screen). Does the routine see your gas/brake as joystick 2? If so you can use gas/brake as joystick 2 in the top calibration portion, otherwise change the setting to the joystick # that was read by the bottom joystick calibration tests. -- **************************** Michael E.

A buddy of mine had the same problem. If you're not using the pass through adapter that Thrustmaster shipped with the T-2, then the pedals should be calibrated using joystick 2. If you are using the adapter, then calibrate the wheel and the pedals at joystick 1. If you aren't using the adapter and it won't calibrate using joy 2, then *use* the adapter, and try it using joy 1. -- -Paul Eigsti > Ok gang, > I can calibrate the wheel just fine.

Try calibrating the T-2 first, then assign the controls. Make sure you are calibrating on the joystick 1 option and not on joystick 2. Hope this helps, I have a T-2 and it works fine with the pedals in N2

The wheel works fine, but both in ICR2 and N2, the pedals seem to calibrate as the same thing (ie, the same joystick axis). This either gives me one gas pedal and one pedal that gives slight acceleration with brakes coming when both pedals are released, or two gas pedals with brakes when pedals are released. This occurs with and without the adapter. I'm not using the ACM game card but am thinking about buying it if it would help me solve this problem. I tried many different ways to calibrate and none of them worked correctly in either program. Any help would be appreciated, Kevin Earls

thanks for replying, I have the adaptor in place. I copied the control.cfg file from N1 to N2. This at least allowed the game to understand the brake and accel were going to be on joy1. The problem is that I still cannot get the calibration to work. So of course when I enter into the game the brakes and accel do not respond. I have tried running the .exe instead of the .bat to launch the program but get the same results. At the moment the best I can do is use the wheel and use the keyboard to brake and accel. which sucks. :( If anyone else has any ideas, please let me know. david / vetteracer(hawaii handle)

I had the exact same problem. After a few hours of screwing around I deleated the game and reinstalled it and it worked fine. FWIW Gary

Both pedals are on the same axis. Are you calibrating them by fully depressing one, releasing it FULLY, then depress the other, and release it FULLY? The calibration gauge (?) should go be centered without pressing either pedal, and go to one extreme when you press the throttle, and the other extreme for brake. BTW, I am NOT using a game card, and have 3 buddies who are also running Nascar 2 who don't use game cards either. e-mail me if you need more assistance. -- -Paul Eigsti

If you are using the adapter that came with the T2 make sure you click on calibrate joystick 2 even though you are not using it. Just click on calibrate joystick 2 and then hit enter and then calibrate joystick 1. It works great fo me after this little exercise. Good Lauck Dave K.

Mike try checking as to what your controls are set for in the control area. Your pedals my work but you might have gas assigned to the space bar or something weird like that. Homepage http://user.mc.net/~n9ldx

My last post here must have been voodoo. Now my T-2 pedals have stopped working. They worjked just fine right from the get go, then POOF nothing. I can still set the calibration and asign the steering fine but pedals no longer work. Any ideas out there? Mike Schmidt

The routine or calibrating doesn't see my gas/brake at all. The only way my setup sees the brake/gas as joystick one is because I copied the control.cfg from N1 to N2. Otherwise the setup will not acknowledge the gas/brake when, in setup mode, I am asked to "brake". I tried to copy the calib.??? from N1 to N2 and the all I got was full gas when I went to race. I have sent a note to Tech support and was told because of the holidays they are 4 days behind david / vetteracer

Try deleting the control.cfg file in the NASCAR2 file and then reconfigure everything from scratch. You might also have to delete the calib.val file. Make backups before you delete just in case! -- **************************** Michael E.
