Need help with GPL controller setup

Uwe, the simple solution is to use GPLShift which allows more axes to
be recognized. Find this utility at http://www.gplshift.dk/ The line
Share_All_16_AXES = 1 that you need is near the bottom of the ini
file.

It's not just for enabling an H-shifter in GPL. You can use it to
change FOV too.

Buy a USB extension cable, so you can more easily unplug the cougar.

What do you mean by "assign the shifter buttons"? You mean the
paddles? In GPLShift.ini set the first option to None since you're
not using an H-shifter. Otherwise it expects to be detecting a
shifting device, I think.

No, you shouldn't have to. First check that in the Control Panel >
Game Controllers window, the buttons are active. Could it be that the
Logitech Profiler has conflicting button assignments? Try turning the
profiler off if it was on.

If the buttons are active in the Game Controllers window, but not in
GPL, I'm stumped for now. If you run GPLpatch.EXE again, you can
unpatch GPL (rerunning it will repatch it later) and you can see if
the buttons can be configured.
