F1GP and A1200 keyboard
« on: June 23, 2006, 01:35:32 PM »
Hi ya, I've got a couple of A1200s, (Commodore and ESCOM) but whenever I play F1GP on them while using the keyboard to drive wierd stuff happens. I can accelerate, change up gears and turn at the same time but it won't let me brake and change down gears (it's either one or the other) or brake and turn! Any ideas? Is this an A1200 issue cause I don't have any probs driving on my A500/A2000, are both my A1200s stuffed or do I just have to put up with using a joystick? The only other game that does something similar is Tornado but it's not as annoying.  :crazy:
Thanks in advance. :-)

Thanks for the info... haven't tried the F1GP editor on the Amiga version yet, what I've been doing to make F1GP interesting is setting my car to go slow! Makes winning more worthwhile than blowing the field away by a couple of laps.
Yes I've tried using an analogue joystick but find it a bit awkward.
In regards to Tornado I've got both versions, the O/ECS is real nice on my accelerated A1200 but the AGA version needs more grunt than my '030 40 can muster up.
This is my first experience with the 1200s and I'm kinda pleased I couldn't afford them brand new, I've got nothing but happy memories of my A500... well except it could have been a bit faster... I even tried playing Torndao on it and it wasn't pretty.
