Hi Thomas, There is a very divergent set of theories and preferences for the GPL FF settings. One involves relatively low numbers for Damping, the other very high. I am not sure what the logical ranges really are, but the settings below are moderate examples of the extremes. Try it both ways and see what you like: [ Joy ] allow_force_feedback = 1 force_feedback_damping = 600.000000 force_feedback_latency = 0.000000 max_steering_torque = 300.00000 or [ Joy ] allow_force_feedback = 1 force_feedback_damping = 20.000000 force_feedback_latency = 0.000000 max_steering_torque = 175.00000 I have seen damping values from 0 to 6000 posted (GTX_Stotcar is the fellow who brought the high range to our attention), and a smaller range (100 - 2000 for torque - never 0). Latency is an odd parameter. 0 is thoeretically best, but some (tiny) value can apparently help on some PCs in avoiding odd FF response spikes. Best thing is to fool around with the settings and figure out what you like best. I like to test on the Nurburgring, since I have so many opprtunities to have FF intesive "incidents" ;-).

Not to rain on anybody's parade, but unless something has changed, I'm afraid the RS Shifter won't work with GPL. It has to be coded for specifically, which means it will likely only be supported by new games. Rick

Hello, You're not serious, are you? You are going to take off time from work? Sheesh. Guess I don't have to do that since I can play right at my work desk! He he! Really though, you better at least call in sick. I remember when I first got mine (before working at ACT LABS), I would go into work with ***shot eyes and people would ask me if everything was alright. Raymond ACT LABS

While I can't offer any settings, I can tell you that you're absolutely right about the joy. :) I just got mine and have been flying all over the UK in RC2K. Wheeeeeee.....! On Thu, 17 Feb 2000 17:16:31 GMT, [email hidden] wrote:

Remove "hi" from address or it will bounce....
