suggest you buy a new wheel

But ppl are talking about sidewinder software 4.0, but only 3.xx is on ms page. I wonder if the 4.0 is working with xp

but since they dont support it anymore they didnt put it out on the page, so if anyone got it plz. tell me..

kinda strange that they dont support it nowdays, it is still for sale at all webstores.. ;/

The wheel you can find in stores is USB version, this one is still supported in XP and win2k systems, the one isn't is the first version of the wheel which has GAME PORT plug, NOT USB plug!

The new software 4.0 sopose to come with new controlers, but is not awailable for download... at least I didn't find it anywhere... but I am alo not shure, that 4.0 sw supports GAMEPORT version of the wheel... at least they say it doesn't... mybe it is just a trick to buy a new wheel!

I got a gameport>usb converter with the wheel but I dont think it would work, but still worth a try,

Plz if anyone got the Sidewinder Control software ver. 4.0 plz msg me priv.

I'm also not sure why EA's server only checks for a duplicate cdkey and not a valid one.

Bring on a keygen

**HoowahMan** · 23rd October 2002

sorry keygen wont work. I'm not going to explain why. ok maybe a little.. It has to do with them checking legit serial numbers on their databases. A keygen doesn't know what numbers they picked.

er explained too much.

Well, I had NO force feedback before, the wheel would just be "loose". I got into the config of my wheel in windows and turned on "centering spring in FF games". It said so in the readme.txt of the game if anyone else bothered looking at that (I guess not). Now the FF is OK, but it's not exactly rocking my world everytime I bump into something.

AND I don't use the wheel either, cuz then I can only run one race at a time because the game will have a memory leak or some shit and when I start a second race it will all be in slow motion. Not glitching but freaking slow motion.

I have exactly the same problem with Logitech Wingman Formula Force GP.

hi

I got the CLASS rip and I love it, (always love rips of these type of games) and there is 1 music track which I like, dunnow if its original from ISO GAME or what, does the music have lyrics in the iso game? or just plain electronic music?

thanks

**vood99** · 23rd October 2002

you guys think that EA will post downloadable cars for this game? they did so for NFS3, NFS4 and Porsche2K.

**Littleman** · 23rd October 2002

I also got that microsoft steering wheel. I have got Force feedback in the game but only one race.. when i race the second race it's over and out with the FFB .. I think it works for me because i upgraded from windows ME to XP with the software installed.

If Microsoft not supports the wheel they';re a shitty company. But oke u already know that

There must be a sidewinder 4.0.. but it's to big to download they say on microsoft.com....

**Vric** · 23rd October 2002

I got a gamepad with Forcefeelback (Gravis Xterminator Force) this is not some motor that do nothing, this is a real forcefeelback on the small joystick (anyway I wont explain how it work)

Last night, the force feelback worked for the first race then nothing after... Today I have changed the force to half everywhere.. now I have Forcefeelback every race

try to play with the settings a bit look like a small bug

**IsraeliBoy** · 23rd October 2002

i cant steer.. or even go, anyone wanna tell me controls please? thanks

**amrod** · 23rd October 2002

Is there a Turbo for Cop Cars?

In the Ps2 version there's a Turbo button for Cop Cars.. where is it in the PC version?
Does it even exist?

Where's the Semi-Automatic Transmission option also? I dont see that..

What a disappointment if these 2 options dont exist...

**rayDreamer** · 23rd October 2002

you guys r lucky...I can't get it to start...
have the DEViANCE rls..

**Scorpzzz** · 23rd October 2002

How funny...

there is just 2 modes for multiplayer..

this is a hot pursuit game right ?

well, you can't be a cop in multiplayer.

you just have to drive, no traffic no nothing.
just race against friends.

WOW. i so love this game.

**Hellpig** · 23rd October 2002

Has anyone had this problem?
Racing through all the championship then when I get to final race... dunk. Back to windows. Sometimes in the screen where you chose car, something during the load before the race. Using the Deviance-fixed version if anyone wonders... totalt frustrating!!! >

**ReDyEy** · 23rd October 2002

I got the Microsoft sidewinder force feedback wheel (USB) Version 4.0 and i don't get any force feedback in the game, it always goes back to the center but it never shakes and bumps :'( and sometimes it goes weird when i get on my second lap it goes loose on the right side for a min or so... real strange.
