Having trouble with Ford Racing 2

Paratech · February 7th, 2006

I thought I got a good deal when I bought it new for $3.99 at Big Lots, but....

I cannot get any of my controllers to respond, the buttons respond, but the left/right/up/down do not work. It recognizes the controllers (2-axis, 4-button joystick, GamePad Pro USB, and 2 4Axis 12Keys GamePad *Sony Playstation Dual Shocks hooked up via USB* ) but the directional controls won't work, the keyboard is the only way to move the car, even though I tried selecting the joysticks in the game...

Please, any suggestions would be appreciated...

You can try to download a tool called Joy2Key.
With it you can configure your control with the keyboard and mouse.
So you can set your directional arrows in the keyboard with the ones on the control.

Edit: Found it for you.

Well I'm not getting anywhere so far, on figuring out why my controllers wont work, at least I got informed that my EBAY copy of Need For Speed Underground 2 should be shipping tomorrow, I should have it by the end of the week... Was $15.50 *including $5 shipping* a decent price? I thought it was...

pretty good price! brand new (here in england) you are looking at about $60-80.

its a good game tho, NFS Most Wanted is also a worthy buy

Well Need for Speed Underground 2 was used...I've seen it new for $20, but I didn't think $15 used was bad...
$10.50 + $5 S/H...

I will tomorrow, I'm seriously dissapointed that the company hasn't replied to my emails, and I'm unsure that the controllers will be usable with a joy2key...
But I downloaded it and will give it a try...
