Race Driver: GRID wheel problem

Hey,

First of all, this game just rocks ^^ best racing game Ive played in ages.

I thought when I got it that I should dig out my old Logitech Wingman Formula Force GP steering wheel, to try that.
Installation went fine, vista immediately recognized it, and I could see that it was calibrated fine in the control pad. In-game I could just remap controls to it, that went fine as well.
The problem is that the game somehow doesnt recognize the wheel as an analogue controller. What happens is that when I steer, and turn the wheel 1/4 of the way, nothing happens at all. When I turn further, the car suddenly just steers and turns at maximum. There seems to be no way to just steer a little bit with the wheel, which kinda makes it pointless to use. Is there any way to fix this? I have tried changing all the advanced driving options in the game options, but that didnt help.

thanks for any and all help

 

Then you need to adjust the settings in the ADVANCED section.
I don`t have the game anymore, post me a screenshot of your settings(like dead zone,linearity etc) (all in the same page) and I`m sure I`ll remember my settings.

 

I played around with those as well. All they did was to change the point at which (while turning the wheel) the car would turn. In other words it was still impossible to keep the car going in a slight curve. It was either turn all the way, or dont turn at all, nothing in between.
At really low steering saturation and steering deadzone settings (10-20%), tuning the wheel would actually not do anything.

 

have you tried adjusting the linarity? that done it for me - set it to 0 (it can go to minus figures so be careful of that)
