Oh......so no fix then??

I fixed Over Rev by adjusting "centering Spring Strength" to 150% as well

Was wondering if there is a way to tell the Logitech Profiler to change the settings for Daytona and Indy 500 (overall effects strength to 150%), and keep all other games at 100%

Cheers

I have a Logitech G27 and I would like to play Pole Position.

When playing in MAME v151 it does this weird reset in the middle of the turns?
Let's say I turn my wheel 90 degrees to the right and the car follows. Midway through it's like it resets or something because when I return to center the car will turn 90 degrees to the left, while my wheel is centered?

Is there any way that I can play Pole Position with this wheel?

No.  Pole position was designed to have a wheel that spins endlessly with no specific center point.
Personally I'd like to see the MAME Devs hack it or someone to release an alternative build of MAME hacked to make it playable with limited rotation wheels.

Just a quick post....
I recently hacked an old PC steering wheel with an optical mouse. The wheel now spins infinitely and allows me to play all 360 type games as they were intended. Plus the latest mice are wireless. I removed the mouse pcb and fixed it near to the steering wheel mount. I placed a circular disc on the wheel shaft and as this turns it tricks the mouse into thinking it's moving on the y axis. Works very well and I found a program that allows automatically speed changes per mouse when you move it. That way you can control its sensitivity.

Anyone want to chip in their 2 cents about how I can improve the guide in the first few posts of this thread?

I think it's too information dense and some of it may not be necessary.
I'm thinking about just deleting the PC games section, or limiting it to a link to configuring Crazy Taxi and a link to Howards Outrun FXT thread.

Also thinking about deleting the history of driving games videos.  I feel like the thread starts going off the tracks at the PC games (which are outdated) and runs all the way off them at the video.
I think the stuff below there about cab dimensions and hacking original controls is more important IMO.

Is the stuff about hacking original controls understandable?
I don't think noobs follow it very well.

EDIT: Never mind.  Made some changes.  Moved the videos to the end.  I'm much happier with it now.
