hey all
the title says it all but the story is:
ive recently bought a car that has a high powered motor put in it, but the body is rather cactus, and i have the same car i drive everyday. it has a great body but i destroyed the motor with my spirited driving [no comments please]
long story short, the high powered motor goes in my daily driver and then ill have this car body in my yard.
the plan is to cut the front half of the cockpit out [cut just behind the front seats and the firewall], seal it up and make a cockpit for gaming, perfect idea as the pedals, wheel, handbrake and dash is all there ready to work
this is where you guys come in!!
i need some help in getting it to work, i.e what potentiometers i should use, what controllers i should use and how to make it work with windows, then maybe xbox later on
to be happy with the projects completion the system must:
have a working steering wheel with about 540 Deg rotation either way for realism [if too difficult will settle for like 180-270 either way]
all three pedals working and analog
working 6-speed shifter [might buy a thrustmaster one]
working handbrake
this last one is sort of just a extra, not too bothered if it dont work
working dash dials
all help and ideas are welcome
before u say it i have looked at just buying something like logitech G27 and mount it in there but id like to try this route first
