Man, I feel for you and I know where you're coming from. Mind you, £15 for Logitech Wingman FF off a mate aint bad and boxed when the missus is around was my solution You never know, you might get your kids to like LFS.....on second thoughts maybe not otherwise you'll never get to play!
Just a thought.. back when I was a mouse driver, I connected a joystick with a throttle control alongside and used that for the gas/brake. made a huge difference in driveability from the clickclick..click..clickclick pseudo-analog you get from clicking a mouse.
going from there to actually using the joystick (with ff ) was a huge leap in driveability. but my point is just a very cheap non-ff joystick with some kind of analog input can be used alongside a mouse you know..
Maybe you should edit your post, at 1st read, i thought you were saying than red color for tire contact patch was faster than green color ( optimal temp )
I have to read it twice to really understand
About Red color skin .. that's true.. just look Ocrana Skins
I think it's a case off if you are using the old wr or old unstable setups then with the new patch they are less effective. If your old setup was stable and took less liberty's with the exploits your setup can hold it's own in the new physics . . ..
Seems like that to me anyway . . . .
But then I thought I was fast at KY GP Long with a 1.14 untill I saw a 1.11. Looks like I got some testing to do . . . .
