Title: Help with clandestine play at work
Post by: rnight on January 05, 2001, 08:59:00 AM

When playing with keyboard and mouse, I have no throttle control. Manifold pressure goes straight to 60 and -/= does nothing to change it. All the other key mappings seem to work fine (I'm running WIN2K Pro). Is there something I can do to enable throttle control? I'd get a joystick, but I want to sneak an occasional HTH against a college at work, and having joysticks on our desks might be considered "unprofessional"  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Try re-mapping the increase and decrease throttle keys.  It is possible those ones are not working for some reason.  Map a couple of others and see if that does it.  Or, try re-mapping - and = and maybe that will do it.

Thanks for the advice. I just tried that and it didn't work. But, I also discovered that the wheel on my intellipoint mouse is somehow mapped to the throttle. Trouble is, the wheel only allows 0% or 100%. What now?
