Hi Sly,
I am sorry, but I probably will not be adding force feedback to Mach 1. I
don't think that I would like it and I do not believe that I have the software
for my steering wheel.
Sorry about that.

Hi Thomas,
Yeah, there are just allot of lines of code for the joysticks. I just have to
figure out which ones that I need to duplicate with an r rather than the l. I
did not have a clue about how to do the right joystick, now I do. Thank you
very much.

Thank you for reading
Hi Jim!
It would be Totaly Awesome! if you could figure out how to incorprate
force feedback with your mach one game.
I love playing top speed and the force feed back is Excellent and adds
a lot to the experience.

Hi Thomas,
Thank you. I do see lots of lines of code that look like they are for the left
stick. I'll have to experiment and try to get the right stick working as well.
You know there is trying to detect it, initialize it, set the ranges, assign
it and then be able to get input from it.
Hi Charles,
Yeah, I can't seem to find it either. I guess it was sent to Audyssey

Hi Jim,
Yes, I'm aware of all that. The thing is the initialization code only
needs to be done once for the controller. It doesn't matter how many
sticks, buttons, and other controls are on it as all of that will be
detected by your initialization of the device. Once it is initialized

Hi Charles,
POV stands for point of view. In mainstream games it is often possible
to change the point of view or the perspective of where the game
character is looking by using the POV hat on the controller to look
around at the game world without moving the character.
Typically the POV hat is
Hi Charles,
I see. Unfortunately, I'm not finding a copy of my review, but the
controller isn't that complicated. The controller actually has a
fairly typical gamepad layout. Although, that probably doesn't help
seeing as you are a newbie to game controllers.
In any case I'll see what I can come

Hi Charles,
Besides all of the things that Thomas said, the biggest problem that I have is
that the code that I found only finds the left stick. I just could not figure
out how to get it to find two sticks. So it finds ten buttons and one stick.
Now with the Logitech MOMO Racing steering
Hi Jim,
Just for your info accessing both sticks on a gamepad is actually
quite simple with DirectInput. The joystates are lX and lY for the
left stick and rX and RY for the right stick. My memory of the correct
VB code is a bit fuzzy but it should look something like this.

That sounds about right. Although, that unit was out more like 8 years

Hi Charles,
Yep. It sure does. Although, one has to install Philips drivers and
software to use the force feedback feature. I haven't had XP for ages
so have been running the Microsoft generic Windows drivers which work
okay, but lack force feedback support for the device.
Cheers!

Hi Shaun,
The review I wrote was for the Philips SGC2909 which is the USB
version of that controller. Philips also had a wireless version out
called the Philips SGC-2910 which was the same but was completely
wireless as I recall. Anyway, the SGC-2909 is the one people are
talking about here.

Hi Charles,
The main reason is because when Jim wrote Mach 1 TTS he exclusively
designed it for his Logitech racing wheel. While your game controller
will work with the game the buttons and controls won't exactly match
up with those the game were designed for. Plus while there are

Rummaging through a box of stuff I had packed when moving into this house, I
have come across a game controller. I think that Thomas Ward did a review of
it once, but I don't recall which model this is, or anything about it. I'll
describe it below in hopes that this indicates what I have.
Fastest way is to have someone with sight just read the logo sticker
on the controller. because that description could fit a lot or ones
not highly known.

Well, the description you gave of the game controller could fit any
number of gamepads as that is a fairly common description of a USB
gamepad. That said, if I reviewed it you may be talking about the
review I gave of the Philips 9009 rumblepad a few years ago.

Hi Charles,
Yes. Use the CD that came with the controller. It comes with the
Windows drivers as well as the software needed for calibrating the
device. The software is also necessary if you wish to use force
feedback in games that have it like Topspeed.

Hi Charles,
The Phillips game controller does not need to be left plugged in. In
fact with the retractable usb chord it seams it is meant to be
unplugged, rolled up, and stored when not in use. Of course weather to
store it or leave it plugged in is your choice, and therefore is optional.
As
This may seem like a really dumb one, but here goes, anyway. I'll probably
install the game controller I have tomorrow afternoon. I think there is some
sort of light inside it. Should it always be left connected to the PC once
installed, as a mouse does? I'm just thinking about the
