T2 gas pedel

See my post elsewhere in this newsgroup. I had the same problem (with I76) but it, and all my other T2 problems, were fixed by buying a Thrustmaster ACM speed-adjustable game card and calibrating it using TMScope. --Keith

I just installed a T2 on my system after all the talk I've heard about it on this newsgroup. I can't seem to get it to calibrate properly. I'm running a P166, 64Mbram, Blaster 3D PCI 4mb. The T2 is running on my Sound Blaster game port. I've configured it in win95 as a 2 axis, 4 button joystick. Problem is that during calibartion the gas pedel moves only a slight amount on the screen for most of the travel, then jumps to full open position at the last bit of travel. Kind of makes the throttle an on/off switch (good for drag racing but not NASCAR). I'm running N2 with both of the recent patches. Any help on this would be appreciated. MXZ

I had the same problem with mine. I went in and adjuste the pots. You will need TMscope. You can get this off of Thurstmaster's web site. IG you want more information of how to do this let me know and I will let you know. matt --

Keith, I missed your earlier post. Could you email it to me? I think I've solved the problem after searching the Microsoft Knowledge base on a seperate problem I was having with Monster Truck Madness. Anyway, the T2 is to be calibrated in Win95 as a "custom" 2 axis, 4 button joystick. By selecting custom in the control panel/joystick setup, an additional window comes up that lets you specify "race car controller". It cured my problem listed above as well as the problem I had in MTM. The T2 should not be calibrated as a regular "2 axis, 4 button joystick" MXZ * To reply by mail, remove the .SpamBlocker from my address
