Ch Pro Paddles

[Pendragon]

I HAVE NEW CH PRO PADDLES AND AN X-52 BOTH USB, HOW DO I GET THE PADDLES TO WORK IN C4?:grrr:

[RAB]

Didn't it come with its own software. I use a Logitech stick and a Belkin n52, both USB, and have no conflicts. They both have thier own profiler. I would think the peddals would too. Windows might have generic drivers for them but I as well know a name as the CH Pro is I would expect some type of profiler for it. Have you checked the web page for updates and trouble shooting help?

[RAB]

I did a seach and found this link for ya. I would think this would help you out a little.

I down loade the software and c4 still does not like it. The peddles work fine in EECH,it must be a C4 bug. If you have anything new let me know.

Sorry man but I got bad news. Found a review about the peddals. This is what they said about them.

Unfortunately the ProPedals only work with a limited range of sims and games. They work perfectly with software that lets you specify which joy-axis does what, like in FLY! and FS2K, but if you try to use them with older sims like EAW or Falcon 4.0, you will only be able to use the pedals, OR your joystick / yoke, but not both!

I'm hoping you got a receipt if you have no other games to use em with.

Ok I dug a little deeper and found one more thing that might help. If you use Norton Anti-Virus this just might be the problem.

Installation and set-up: RTFMF

Installation is a breeze. If you're like me, you install first and read the manual as a last resort. In fact, I have a note taped to my monitor that's simply the acronym: RTFMF! Stands for Read The (expletive deleted) Manual, First! Always good advice. In this case, you'll see that you must first install the drivers BEFORE you plug in your stick, throttle and rudder pedals. And, be sure to completely turn off all antivirus protection and re-boot without it BEFORE running the driver installation. This gets a little tricky. With Norton Antivirus 2003, for example, just disabling it from the system tray icon is not enough. You must run MSCONFIG (click on the START button, RUN, type in MSCONFIG, click on the Start-up tab) and uncheck all the Norton programs that load on start-up. Then re-boot and install the CH Products drivers. When that's complete, be sure to turn Norton Antivirus back on by first starting it from your desktop and then running MSCONFIG again and re-checking all the Norton start-up programs. Finally, re-boot your system and check to see that Norton is running. I know, I know, this is a real pain in the tuchus but tell that to Symantec!

Hope this helps. Good luck.

Thanks for all your Help RAB, I can use the padles for EECH, so it won,t be a total lose.
It would be cool if someone could come up wit a fix for it.
