Title: Nice steering
Post by: saltydog on July 01, 2010, 07:43:57

I finally did something I was planning for years: I bought a gameport adapter and connected my old Thrustmaster steering wheel to my computer..  (of course my Saitek X52 stays..)
Very nice to be able to steer this way, should have done it much sooner.. ;D

Does anyone know if they make an adapter that would allow me to attach a PS2 wheel to my computer? I have a ps2 wheel and if I could hook it up to play SS with that would be awesome!
