Ahah! That'll be an early version then. 4.60 is not the same evil monster. Also it seems to me that Momo owners were the most affected. Wheel not centreing properly. Well that was fixed in a patch. Hey! What am I defending Logitech for? They're big enough to look after themselves. I state again though, if you've got a DFP you'd be crazy not to use profiler.
I confess to being a Profiler fan. One of the main reasons, apart from the button thing, is that it actually provides a 'force feedback' stop to the rotations. While the DFP has a rotation of 900 degrees you don'y really need that much, not in LFS anyway. If you set the rotation to 720 degrees you get a 'stop' at that setting or any rotation you like.
How does it 'fubar' games? I am interested to know.
No it doesn't. In fact if you want to use the full range of the DFP it's a necessity.
That's probably it. Assign functions to keystrokes. i.e. if you want a wheel button to, for instance, act as turn signal, assign the button to 8,9 or 0. I will admit, the Wingman Profiler isn't the most instinctive piece of software to use but when you've cracked it it's pretty good.
IMO

Education, education, education. (that's amusing if you're English)
Seriously, disable restarts for the first 180 seconds. The more rash drivers soon get the idea that it doesn't pay to be too lead footed in the first turns.
Then again, this has been raked over sooo many times and nothing changes.
In my case, unless it's basic set like race_1, setup makes very little difference. I was once on a server with XFGs and lumbered around on race_1 well off the pace. Sinbad then kindly gave me his set. What a difference! It took 2-3 seconds off straight away. Trouble is I was still 2 seconds a lap off the leaders pace.
I can make EVERY turn perfectly. Unfortunately I can't do it on the same bloody lap! Mostly it's a mind game and the older you get, the less mind you have to play with.
