Re: [Torcs-users] (no subject)

Thanks Bernhard!!
Your response is quite effective that I got the Idea how I can do this
task, but I don't know about the HID drivers. I am totally new to it. Can
you tell me about it in some detail so that I can understand it? And why it
is needed to be used? Can't the torcs take the inputs without "hid" driver
implementation? Can't I use Emotiv API's to give the input to the torcs?
