Hi I have a wingman rumble pad but the game seems not to keep the calibration. The car keep going to the left. I was thinking it was cause by the banking on the track but going in wrong way is the same. When I go to calibrate my control device, all the setup is gone! Why? I have no problem with all my other racing game with this device. NR 2002 was fine too with this device. My spec: win xp p4 2,53 gig 512 ram (2700) ATI Radeon 9700 pro with the latest catalyst and dx 9 Thanks in advance for the info Guill

Because of the assymetrical setups on ALL ovals, WC cars are setup to steer left, so you actually have to steer to the right a little going down the straights. -- Biz "Don't touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn't understand alloys and compositions and,......things with molecular structures,....and the....." - Ash "Guillaume Jacques" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:2mQ_9.29068$[email hidden]... > Hi > > I have a wingman rumble pad but the game seems not to keep the calibration. > The car keep going to the left.

Yes, but if I go on wrong way ( just to test it) the car still keep to the left and climb the banking! In a track like Watkins glen, there is some straight line and no banking. I am pretty sure if I could run on this track, the car would steer to the left again... As I said, anyway, the game don't keep the calibration and I don't know why... I hope this is because it's a beta version... Please help me someone...

I've had a similar problem to you, but interpret your sutuation slightly differently. I too run a Wingman rumbler and i've noticed that occasionally NR2002 will forget it's calibration settings. I load up the game, and the first prompt i'm shown is a demand to calibrate my device, which should be an automatic process and not requested, curiously the calibration menu will have some axes missing. If i reload the game, no calibration request is made, everything works and i can carry on to race weekend, strange... I'm assuming this is what you mean when you say your set-up is gone? As for your handling difficulties, i'd suggest you check the central deadzone in the calibration menu, move your stick to left and right extremes and let the stick find it's own deadzone, maybe you could do the same procedure in the 'Game Controllers > calibration' bit of XP. Good Luck.
Yes, this is what I mean. But the problem is worst in nr2003 than in nr2002. In Nr 2003, the game forget calibration setting every time. In fact, it seems that when I quit the calibration menu, the game forget the setting as soon as I quit this menu! However, if I reload the game, there is no calibration request. For the dead zone, I have always put the stick to the extreme zone and let it to the center. I hope this problem will be solved in the full game. It is really a problem with this demo and not by this device. By the way, I have the latest driver for this device. All my other racing game have no problem at all with this device... So I wonder what is the problem... Guill > I've had a similar problem to you, but interpret your sutuation slightly > differently.
