Ok, I'll try and walk you through it:
From the main Pinnacle window:
1) In the top right of the window, click 'Game Profiles'.
2) On the window that appears, click 'New'.
3) Then, on the next window, browse for your GP4.exe.
4) On the 'Advanced' tab, in the lower left, install the 'Hook' and click 'OK' and then 'OK' again if a box asks for Administrator permissions.
5) Select 'Empty Profile' on the next screen.
You'll then be taken back to the 'Game Profile' window that we had in Step 2
6) In the bottom left, click 'Edit Configurations' and you'll be taken to another window, hopefully showing a picture of your controller and a list of its buttons and axis's.
7) Determine which of the editable things controls your paddles; Hover each of the items with your mouse until the diagram points to the correct place.
8) Click on the [no command] section of that item, select 'DirectX Override' -> 'DINPUT AXIS' -> 'Y AXIS'
9) Repeat for the other paddle, but select 'Z AXIS' at the end.
(I'm assuming that the steering part of your controller is the Z-Axis)
10) Click 'Save and Close' on the left of screen, click 'OK' in the 'Game Profile' window that we had in Step 2, and you should be back to the main Pinnacle screen.
Launch GP4 from GPxPatch or CSM, and Pinnacle should split the paddles for you and you should then be able to set them up in-game like any pedal set.
It's a bit hard to explain in written form so, if you have trouble, try this:
If you can get to Step 10, click on 'Export' in the lower-left corner, make sure 'Export Profile Data' is selected and click export on the next screen.
Upload the .pin file somewhere, and I should be able to edit it for you.
(I'll also try making a video tomorrow to help set it up.)
