    @Evan Rowlands
    Open Game Engine and go to the Axis Assignments.
    Select 'default' under game list.
    Click 'Presets'.
    Select "SimForce GT" from the drop down list.
    Click save.
    Repeat these steps for Live for Speed.
    Remembering to click save.
    This should get you going.

    forget about the game for now.
    Get it working with the output testing first.

    You now have axis assignment.
    Now make sure you have interface assignments.
    You have a 2 axis simulator.
    Notice we have Axis1 and Axis2 setup for output.
    Notice that surge goes in the same direction for both axes.
    Notice that Sway goes in opposite directions for both axes.

    Now go look at you interface settings.
    What interface are you using.
    Do you have all the electronics hooked up?
    So you know if they work?
    what testing have you done?
    let me know buddy.
