Hi guys. I am trying to play indycar racing 2 in dosbox. I can get the game to work but dosbox doesnt recognize the throttle. It appears to be tied to "z rotation". There is no z axis in the mapping. The brake pedal is tied to the y axis.
Im using a thrustmaster ferrari gt wheel. I would appreciate any help greatly. Thank you.

Have you tried changing joysticktype=auto in your .conf file to joysticktype=4axis? There's also the "fcs" type for Thrustmaster, but I imagine that that might be more specific to Thrustmaster joysticks than wheels. There's also the swap34 option to swap the 3rd and 4th axes, which might help. I think that all of those are options for 0.74 DOSBox, but, if not, try an SVN build, instead.

BTW, you mention mapping, but I suppose that you could mean in-game mapping. If so, perhaps DOSBox's mapping--by pressing Ctrl+F1 in the game--would help.

That question is redundant because Windows 95 doesn't run correctly in DOSBox.

Just another user that likes old OSes and videogames, nothing interesting to see here...
