Quote from Matrixi :

Most propably it does steer differently (or feel, which I'm guessing you are talking about). Every game has its own game engine which means every game has its own feeling to it. Currently, as far as I know, LFS is the only "game" that delivers the feel straight from the road to the steering wheel. That means there is no pre-canned FF effects and pre-set steering feel that other games have. Most of those games you listed are pretty much arcade too, which means they have very arcade'ish feeling to them.

If the reason why you prefer keyboard over wheel is the different feeling between games (which I can't understand as a problem really), then use keyboard for those arcade games you listed and learn to get used to the feeling of LFS with your wheel.

Err, you PREFER keyboard over wheel? Why in the earth? You say you didn't like driving with a wheel, what didn't you like about it? You are honestly the first person I've ever seen who prefers a keyboard over a wheel.

Since you've already decided to give up, it's your call. We're not the ones missing the great fun this game (sim) has to offer.

Hmm. We had the very same discussion when the S1 G patch came out.
We had a hole family-like community before that, but I dont see any left...
So, there are many, like me, that stopped then.
Of course, other came inn in stead, and I must accept, that the game now is for mechanics/hardcore sim-drivers only,
and not for people, that just want to have fun, living out their boydream..

I´ve heard all the arguments before, so there is no point in going on..

See you in another game...

Quote from tristancliffe :

How do you mean it reacts differently? Which other games? Which wheel? Have you set it up correctly? Stick with the wheel and you'll love it!

It simply steers differenly in every game, even though I dont touch the settings in "Game Controllers" in the controlpanel..

The games I play are:
4x4 Evolution - Colin McRae Rally 2, 4, 5 - DRIV3R - FlatOut - Insane - Need For Speed Underground, MW - StuntGP - TmSunrise - ToCA Race Driver 2 - WR2.

Wheel: Logitech WingMan Formula Force GP .

Quote from tristancliffe :

Why?

One reason is, that the wheel react different in different games. I have a lot of other racing games, that I play.

Another is, that I dont feel comfertable with it, nor the pedals.

Maybe I would, if I had this gear ;o)

Quote from AndroidXP :

Looks like you're out of luck then. Not enough dedication to learn the new keyboard steering that actually takes skill to drive now, and at the same time too lazy to plug on the wheel

Yup, thats me. Besides I dont like to use wheel...

Quote from Matrixi :

Keyboards and sims don't mix, I'm sceptical with mouses too. Buy a proper force feedback wheel, or there's not much sense in playing a sim. Think about playing a flight sim with keyboard / mouse.. it's plain stupid. It's all in the feeling, which a proper wheel will give you

I Have a wheel (Logitech WingMan Formula Force GP). Tried it for a couple of month with S1, before giving up on that. But I dont like it, and dont want to switch controllers all the time. I must realise, that the developers and I obviously want different things. Thats why I must give up...

Was giving up after the patch-release after S!-o.3-E, cause its became impossible too steer with kb.
But as I remember the game as the greatest, i gave it another try today with S2-Alpha Demo. I couldnt steer my favorit car, XRGT and Turbo,
but with GTI it was possible. Ok I ran a few rounds, and would try online......
No servers. Ah, ok, i thought, there must be an update.
Yes. I downloadad the Q-version, installed, and */***/*/*//xxx***. The same happened, as when the S1-o.3 E was updated to the next.
Suddently it was impossible to steer again.

What is the meaning of annoying the costumers like this. I dont get it :o(

I also only have S1, and would like to drive the demo online. But only as far as S1-0.3-E. After that, its impossible to steer with kb.
(Yes I have wheel, but dont want to shift gear for different games...

I dont know anything about any tweak, but dont like the game after S1 0.3-E, cause its impossibel to steer with keyboard

Im on with S1-0-3 E Demo

Are we talking about S1 or S2?

I played the demo from 2003, and got S1 licensed early 2004. We had a really cool time, with the best ever race-game. Well, that stoppet suddently with the release of a new patch, and I stoppet playing, when it became impossible to play with kb. That was after the s.3-e patch. I did bye a wheel: Logitech WingMan Formula Force GP, and tried it for a couple of month, but never grow to like it.

So. I have no intension on bying S2
