It is some time now that i am looking for a joystik for lfs .. BUT .. i cannot find one that has 3 pedals .. this is pissing me off .. if there is a joystik model that has 3 pedals .. please let me know

Joysticks don't have pedals. Wheels come with pedals

Read the Racing Wheels subforum to search. You'd want to get the Logitech G25 that has just come out.

Maybe he meant paddles.

Now WHY would he want to find one with 3 paddles?

I can understand why someone would want 3 pedals though... It's one for brake, one for throttle, and one to pump up the airbag in a crash.

Yeah mate... You need to wait a tiny bit longer until the Logitech G25 is available to you. It's da proverbial bomb (for the hardcore budget priced wheels).

I dont know, I just thought, he could have meant it, seeing that joysticks dont have pedals.

But they don't have paddles either

Looks like we will never know, what he meant.

I meant a wheel whith 3 pedals. I did not meant paddles. In LFS there is the cluch option .. but .. it seems weard to use a button for the clutch. what is the poin of a simulator .. if it is not 100% authentic??

you can change it to a pedal (w00t for teh 3 pedals!), just change "Clutch" from "Button" to "Axis" and assign it to the appropriate pedal and your set!

I use a joystick too for many years now... didn't find anything suitable so I built my own solution of analogue steer/brake and being able to shift and making use of the clutch even with a joystick. I've been asked about it some times so I explained it mored detailed on this page:
