Driving games on PC with potentiometer wheel connected with ultimarc a-pac

(1/3) > >>

istorch:
I am making a driving cab.  Have a setup with a 360 wheel and 270 attached via an a hid from ultimarc.  I have three analog pedals hooked up as well.  The issue I am having is compatibility with games.  Mame is great.  The n64 is good as well.  My pc has about 2.4 ghz and 2 meg ram.  Runs model 2 choppy.  I know there are a lot of forums rec games which are pc based and run fast.  I need games that meet these criteria and are able to calibrate with a pac joystick.   I tried outrun 2006 for example and couldn't get joystick.  I have others attached which it picked up and worked great but not a pac.  Anyone with experience with this or advice?

AMG KC:
Turn on frame skip and you should see Model 2 get smoother.

You must mean 2 gigs of RAM, 2 megs and youd be stuck with Windows 95. All well and good to look at CPU speed, but it offers no indication of performance. If its a 2.4GHz Celeron itll still be gutless, to quantify that statement if you took an i7 920 at 2.66 GHz its about 50 times more powerful than a 3.2GHz Pentium 4, so its abit more important to state the CPU type, since the speed really means less than nothing if you dont know what design it is.

istorch:
I have a pc with the following specs: Pentium 4- 2.66 ghz with 2gb of ram.  sorry about the inaccurate description above.  I really don't want to invest in a new pc, is this adequate? any advice on what I may run to make my driving cab?

AMG KC:
No reason to be sorry :) I thought it would be helpful for you if it was clarified just what sort of info is required to make more accurate judgements on performance.

That PC should be fine for alot of things, just add some frame skip where you need it for smoothness.

What video card is in it?

istorch:
The card is an N video Geoforce 5200.  Is this good enough.  I tried to get something a while back which would be better and fit in the port, but had compatibility issues.  I'm running two monitors (a tv and a regular monitor) off this- does that matter is the card ok for this?  thanks again for help.  Give me some specific recs on what I should run-  how do I framskip model 2? does it have to be in command line? my name version is difficult to frame ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---, I know I've done it before with function keys, but It doesn't work on the version i'm running, do you have advice on this as well?
