H-Shifter With Joystick - Windows 7?

Are any of these programmes work with Windows 7?

FFShifter will not work for me, as It is not a FF Joystick.

Virtual H Shifter seems to only work with Windows XP

And I have troubles with J2HShifter

Any help here? Since my Computer switch from XP to 7 I have been H Shifter-less and that is quite annoying.

Quote from sazzie :maybee you need to recalibrate your view controls?

How do you do that? I might have done that already.

Quote from JasonJ :With this new patch it's now possible to look backwards when both Look Left and Look Right are pressed together. Perhaps something is making those keys pressed together?

Maybe as a test, just try installing LFS Z into a new folder somewhere else and patching it to Z25 see if the default version still has this issue. You might have something messed up in your working version.

I dont see what could affect this. I have not edited any files of LFS. The only thing i did before it happened with LFS is Place a Rev Limiter Mod in the folder (Still works, and had a few days before this view problem started)

I didnt go online for a while since the patch, and i have a feeling i first came across this when i first went into a server since the patch. Could mean something?

Im not sure if this is a patch problem, but a short while after i patched LFS, my view after cockpit view faces backwards on all cars. I havnt changed settings in the Options>View section, and it still says rotation: 0 degrees. I have to drag it to -180 degrees to make it face forward, but this causes the screen to rotate around when i change the view from cockpit to that view.

(The view i am talking about is the one where by default you see wheels facing forward.

Quote from garph :When in a car go to options > view and select the custom view and the set the rotate option back to center.

When i put it to 0 degrees rotation, it still faces backwards. I have to put it to 180 degrees to fix it.

It makes it face forward, but it is still obviously a problem.

I just opened LFS today, and when i press V to change view after the Cockpit view, it is facing backwards. I had not changed anything since the day before, and i look in the settings, and it tells me it should be normal, but it isnt!

I am talking about the view which by default is usually a view of the tyres, but now its just facing backwards.

It was fine yesterday.

I want to be able to race with my wheel and do the burnout without quitting at setting to Mouse/Keyboard Input.

I also tried to make a button on my wheel the brake as well, but that didnt work.
Still Burnout With Similar Axis

I know people have already done stupid "0W D03Z I MAEK BURN0UTZ? threads.

But after looking around for ages i have found that you have to have Accelerate and Brake pedals on separate axis. My wheel has them on the same axis. Is there a way to make it work around this? Apart from using the keyboard/mouse. I want to use it to heat up my tires for drags.

I cannot seem to find drift king racers on LFS world. And the only other drift team that isn't UK/England/Worldwide I can find, has it's website down.

Ive got another problem. Im trying to get templates to do skins. Ive done skins for other games ive played. The only ones ive found are Here: http://forum.racesimcentral.com/showthread.php?t=190270

Thanks guys. So you have to finish driving and then view the replay.
A few problems

I recently obtained Live for speed. It is very good. I love the physics. But i have a few issues.

I see on videos that you see the drivers arms, but these only come up when i press f, but that means you cant see the car, but only the suspension/

And also, in replay mode, (Esc - Replay) can you jump back to driving without re-starting the race again.

And lastly, In Shift+U mode in replay, can you rewind and fast foward so you dont have to run your camera to the point before you get there?
