I really hope you try this Uwe - as I said in my earlier post in this
thread, it is really is NEEDED for rally type sims (RBR) where you are
driving in 3 dimensions.

I still remember your "OMG, OM F* G" comments when you first took RBR for a
spin. I can understand them even better if you didn't have FF.

Cheers,
Tim

Wow, I have the sister motherboard you have (mines the intel processor board
ECS p4s5adx)...

I have gotten to sit behind an ecci, and I just miss the FF... it does take
some time to get them to be what you want of them forces but IMHO I have
faith I have the MS configs down pat.

ABout the pedals, Ecci once sold those tractor looking pedals (2000's) wired
just to connect the pedal wire into it, so I know I should be able to get
the new 6000 pedals the same (for extra $ probably?) or get a diagram to do
it myself? personally I sit in an office chair, so the MS pedals work fine
for me, more up and down then forward, keeps stuff in place... I hear the
Logi new driving force's pedals are not that grand either? my pedals on the
MS wheel uses a phone cable (4 wire with rj11's on both ends) so it was
really nice, I just went to walmart to relocate the pedals under the desk
routing the wires out of sight, with a 10 ft phone cord...

If I had the kind of cash, I would find a way to buy the rights & bring the
MS product back into production, I mean sheese, they are durable,
economical... I could change the design of the pedals & the wheel itself, I
think, but not too much...
