Hi I have a Thrustmaster FireStorm Dual Analog controller and can't get MTM2 to let me use buttons for the gas/brake. Can anyone here help me with this problem please?

I don't know specifically, but a good rule of thumb is to uninstall the profile and try it, being sure to calibrate it first in the windows control panel, and then in the game.

In truth, I don't think the buttons can be set as brake/gas in MTM2......I believe it's a joystick/pad function only on hand controllers...

I won't bet my paycheck on it, but I think that was my experience long ago with a Microsoft Sidewinder 10-button controller (looks like a playstation controller).

damnit so I have to keep the default eh? Has anyone here managed to configure a Thrustmaster or similar controller to use the gas/brake with the buttons?

See cuz these controllers I have don't come with nor do they have software which you can setup profiles.

I feel ya, ds155, but we could go thru some serious gymnastics here about the problem you're having - hit or miss kind of thing. If you haven't tried giving them a call...it's free of charge, so why not give it a shot. :)
