What steering wheel are you using? Maybe I can test it for you?

Is there a demo version of this game?

Hey Chai

Thx for replying. Its a Logitech Formula Force steering wheel. The game is from Black Bean Italian based company so you should like that seeing as you are from Maranello, assuming its Italy.

http://www.blackbeangames.com/?act=games&game=evogt

Apparantly one can install the steering wheel. The thing is that it does not allow me to activate or choose the brake and petrol pedals and set up the left and right steering. The buttons on the steering wheel works perfectly.

My rumblepad 2 works perfect but its not the same. Hey I like the game alot. Lots of different ideas from the normal racing games. Cant wait for GTR2 though!

Like i said any help will be appreciated.

Yup, I couldn't get my steering wheel to work either. I don't think it supports it because my pedals wont work and I can assign the turning but its like an on off switch. Either it turns or it doesn't. No slight turn or anything in between.

Hey atleast you get some response from your steering...

I feel like the guy in your picture in front of his pc getting frustrated and bashing his brains out. lol

Have you guys tried GTR2 demo yet.

I got it working fine with my Momo Racing, but it has got to be one of the worst racing games I've played. This is one of the finest examples of games concentrating on graphics more than anything else.

The steering has virtually no feel, the FFB is utter crap, it vibrates like crap when I barely kiss the bumper of the car in front, but when I jump over kerbs, I hardly get any feedback. The steering is slow and unresponsive, even my car feels better than the so-called SLK55 in the game.

The gear ratio is so damn wrong! I was redlining at 80km/h on 3rd gear!!! Even my car can reach 80km/h on 2nd gear, and my car is only a puny 1.6L!

I uninstalled after playing 2 races.

Yea it is horrible... LOL! I told you steering has no feel. It's like an on off switch. Either you turn or you don't.
