hi

I am new to gpl shifter, how do I use it, install it and what do I do I need to use it. I am clueless, the intuctions were very confusing. I have a 360 modena thrustmaster will with no shifter, but 2 hatch switch and some levels and brake and throttle pedlas. I would like to use the view modes in either mouse or hat, so i can look round corners more.

thanks and best wishes

Yeah, it's very quiet here. JSJ doesn't seem to keep track. A better forum for questions is at RaceSimCentral - forum.racesimcentral.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=36 is the link to the GPL forum.

To run the utility,

1- just unzip the files into the GPL folder (assuming that's the sim you're talking about - it's the only one that I'm familiar with) and run GPLpatch.exe. You'll get a message saying that your GPL.exe is now patched. If you want to un-patch it, just run that exe again and it'll infrom you that you're unpatching it.

2- you'll need to open GPLShift.ini with notepad and change some things. Most of it's obvious, but the hardest thing to do is know what numbers the buttons on your wheel are. Go into control panel > game controllers and figure which button is the first etc, but in GPL the first button is number 0, the second button is 1, etc. Make sure that in the GPL controllers menu, the look to the side buttons are keys on the keyboard so that there are no conflicts.

3- I'll check back here if you have any more questions, or you can post in the troubleshooting forum at RASC which is well read.
