anyone got one thats any good? i have struggled to get my steering wheel (Microsoft Sidewinder FF) to work well with it and gone back to keys.

I really want GTP MOD but dont see the point unless i get my wheel working sweet for it.

Logitech MOMO Racing will probably be your best bet - grab a MOMO Force (red one) if you can find one though, they're a good bit better. Stopped making them though :(

I'm thinking of getting a FFB wheel, with GPL I feel i'm not really missing out too much but not so in GTP.
Would get the red MOMO but I doubt i'll find one, anyone got the black one with the gearstick?

I think Dave's got the MOMO Racing.

I'm contemplating the opposite Matt - getting a none-FFB wheel - a TSW wheel.

I've got one of them, and the default settings in NASCAR seem to be good. Make sure you enable the low speed steering hack though (in GTP, this has to be done through the launcher - click options) as this gives you some feel.

I have the force feedback at 100%, although this is down to preference. In GTP, I've been thinking of lowering it as it can be quite hard to turn the wheel quickly with the levels of grip these cars have. It's a matter of balance. The more FFB you have, the more feel you have, but the harder it is to be accurate with the wheel movement.

There are several top drivers that use MSFF wheels, so it is definately possible. I would recommend that you set all 3 steering momemtum sliders to 0%, sterring help to 0% and linearity high to begin with (you can always lower it later). Put on the low speed steering hack, as previously suggested here.

In the Game controllers screen in windows, put sensitivity to low, and dead zone to low. That should be a good starting point.



It's only after we've lost everything, that we are free to do anything.

Yeah me. It doesnt come without its problems. The pedals loose calibration after awhile, and there used to be alot of software problmes, but fixing the pedals (physically) is easy.

Worth the money imo. Great wheel, just wish Logitech had sorted all the problems. Reminds me of Act Labs in that sense
