NFS problem

2 posts by 2 people · 09 Feb 1997 - 22 Feb 1997

I have weird problem with Need for Speed: Game loads fine, but when I'm sitting in the car and trying to accelerate, the speed doesn't get higher than about 40mph and dies completely in when ascending a hill. The car doesn't move at all, if I dont push the gas hard in neutral before changing to first gear. And it's not the handbrake! Hardware configuration: Cyrix P166+, 16EDO RAM, Jamicon motherboard, S3 Trio64V+ 2Mb EDO RAM, Quantum Bigfoot, MAD 16 Pro, Thrustmaster GP1 (I have tried keyboard,too). What could be the reason to this odd behaviour? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Medical School University of Tampere phone(FI):03/2611885 Finland --------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've had similar problems with my T1/T2. You can get around it by not pressing the pedals all the way down during calibration. A better fix, however, is to buy some potentiometer cleaner (I bought some at Radio Shack, it was sold as "TV Tuner Cleaner") and spray some in the pedal pots. Mine works like new now.
