Thanks, thanks, and more thanks
Just wanted to say thanks for the triple screen support. I've been using SoftTH and three 19" monitors for a while but it's never looked this good. z18 really allows me to line things up for a realistic view. I've found that by nosing my car directly into a straight wall or fence I can adjust the left and right monitors so that the alignment is spot on. Excellent work!

It basically is a second Race 1 server already, other than the fact it's a bit nicer for higher licenced drivers on points, and the fact you need Bronze to drive there, becuase total noobs in them = chaos.[/quote]
And that's my point. I'm not a fast driver and never will be. But, I enjoy FINISHING a race, not wrecking anyone, and obeying the blue flag if I get that far behind. So I go onto the Race1 server and finish 11th - zippo points. And I can take that with that finish until I see that the winner is a PLATINUM license holder and all the other points were awarded to GOLD and SILVER drivers with the exception of one BRONZE driver. I don't mind trying but I'd at least like to feel that I have a chance of making some points. Not so, with the competition there now.
The Race2 server had four(!) people on it and the Race1 server was full. Why can't those of you who have earned the higher licenses drive in the higher servers - I thought that was the point of the CTRA.

I'd like to suggest changing the Race1 server to use the UF-BR. It's so much more fun than the road cars.
After UF-BR was changed I went into the Race1 server several times in an attempt to improve my points. I was disappointed to find several SILVER and GOLD licensed drivers in it. Of course, they were gobbling up all the points. Kinda frustrating - why not limit the Race1 server to Copper and Bronze. I've seen posts noting that the Race2 and Race3 servers rarely have full fields - and yet, the GOLD and SILVER drivers are on Race1??? Just doesn't seem right to me.

LX Month Competition Current Standings?
In the LX Month Competition Current Standings website - http://competition.lfs.net/lx_autox/ - there is an unnamed column to the right of the Lap Times column. It seems to contain only "w" and "m". What do these represent?
DFP Shift Paddle problem. Please help!
Nevermind. I found the problem. I deleted the old 430 driver and all folders and reinstalled 460 and it works fine now.
Original message:
I've just purchased the Driving Force PRO. I've installed the 460 driver. It works fine in rFactor but in LFS the shift paddles do not work properly. Pressing the left paddle causes the chat message for F1 to be displayed. Pressing the right paddle causes the chat message for F2 to be displayed. When I try to assign the Shift UP and Shift Down functions in the controls it doesn't recognize the paddles. It will recoginze the stick shift, but I'm too used to the paddles.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

HI MM,
I'm from Albany - 'bout 190 miles South of you. I haven't been able to get anyone else locally to try LFS. They just don't get it - staying with NR2003.
th84 is also from Atlanta.
See ya on the track....

I can't see it either. Does anyone have another link to this file?
In the US the "Driving Force Pro" is listed only for the Playstation 2. Is this the same wheel? Does it work on the PC?

I've had the TrackIR 3 Pro with Vector Expansion for a while now and I really like it. I found it very easy to get used to. If I forget to load the software I just have to quit the game and get it loaded -I don't even want to practice without it. The imersion factor is greatly enhanced by it.
