Hello Everyone,
Reviving this thread from the dead. A few years ago I purchased a Glodal VR NASCAR arcade cabinet - really like the way the shifter is in a more natural position. When I purchased it the game wasn't working but that wasn't an issue as I wanted to convert this to a multicade Racer. Originally I was planning on taking out the controls and dropping in either a Thrustmaster or Fanatec setup but since the original game uses a Windows based PC I started thinking that there must be a way to get the existing controls to work - so I stumbled onto this thread and I am hoping you guys can help me.
So the NASCAR game appears to use two separate boards to interface the controls to the PC. Here is the image of the first board.
Here is the image of the second board.
I installed the Immersion drivers and got the wheel to work however the second board is being recognized as a seperate game controller and the pedals, shifter and buttons don't function properly - somehow they seem to all be tied so the pedal axis (if that makes sense). The board is called GVRIOMini and I haven't found the actual drivers (this might be the issue).
Here is an image of how my PC is reading the second board.
While reading this thread it seemed that the fist board should be able to handle all the functions (wheel, pedals, shifter and buttons) on it's own so I am not sure why this cabinet uses the two boards. If the first PCB can handle all the controls then I would need to know what pin controls what function.
Hopefully I understand this enough to be making sense above.
Here is a picture of the cabinet.
