How ya doin all you retro gamers out there.

Quick question regarding network Q rac rally...

I have a USB steering wheel, and i am desperatetly in need to try my all time faviroute racing sim with this wheel. But obviously, dosBOX (as far as im aware) doesnt support USB gamepad periphals (and more to the point, analogue devices like a joystick or a wheel)

Is there any way at all to get this game running with my wheel?

PC:
intel core duo 2.33
4gb RAM
160gb HDD
XFX nvidia geforce 8800gts 640mb
WHEEL:
madcatz 2 xbox 360 USB wheel (fully compatible with windows XP)

i tried with an older USB wheel i had, on a laptop with the same operating system... But there was no joy. However, just for the record, i'll give it a try now. (my day off today, so i got time to burn) 😀

When you try, keep an eye out for the DOSBox console window (the one with all the status messages). It should tell you if DOSBox sees your wheel or joystick.
