I played descent 1 and 2 ( that was a long time ago ) 100% with keyboard. for descent3, I just couldn't do that anymore, being used to the mouse keyboard scheme of FPS, so I tried it. couldn't do crap tho, so I played with the joystick. I've beaten two levels like that, then I've been fed up of bumping against every wall, so I've given a second chance to the keyboard/mouse combo. spend half an hour setting up the keys. Now I challenge anyone with a joystick to beat me.
 
Oh, and yeah, Crimson Skies just owns with a joystick! the game didn't get the fame it deserved anyway.
SCREW CANON!

X takes way too long to get from place to place, and I got halfway done with the game, but couldn't save because no station in any sector at least 10 parts away from me wouldn't let me dock, so I gave it up.


I have:

IL-2 Sturmovik

Mechwarrior 4

Jane's WWII Fighters

IW2

Combat Flight Sim 2

Flight Sim 2002.

And I think that's it...any others, besides those? Back on track, please.

In what way does it not work?

It launches, but every time I try to click on something, it minimizes to the desktop, and it starts flashing black until I hit Ctrl-Alt-Del and shut down the prog.

How queer.

What version is it?
And what's your GFX card?

Dunno the version of the game, but I have an ATi 9000. BTW, is the game supposed to look really ugly, or do I have to change some settings in-game? I selected Direct 3D, but it looks pixelated as hell.

Don't you have the launcher, then? There should be all sorts of settings in that. It does look a bit pixelated, but only in the lower resolutions.
