Hi,
I was planning to waste my money in a nice logitech g940
(http://www.blogeek.ch/images/news/FlightSystemG940.jpg)
A ffb hotas with rudder ;7
But before buying that toy (i plan to use it mainly for fs2open) i just ask on a Sim community forum how the joystick looks like in the peripheral windows,
and i received that screenshot:

That's horrible! each part of the system has a different peripherals id... and well as far as i know fs2open can only handle once at a time... unless we use ppjoy,
but ppjoy under windows7 64bit doesn't seems to work,
Does someone know something similar ppjoy to have the whole system as only one peripherals?
Or any chance to see the fs2open device system being modernised soon?

The launcher (5.5e) lets you select which joystick to use, however I've never had more than one attached, so I can't promise it is effective!

I have the Saitek X-52 Pro, it all shows up as one joystick though, so I don't have those problems.
-
I have the x52 too for now and a g25 wheel as well, I've tried ppjoy to attach the g25 with the x52 to use it as rudder but with 7 it can't work.
@porteJ05 i know i can select which joystick to use and it work pretty well, but we can select only one joy at a time.

Ok i've tried xpadder ( http://www.clubic.com/telecharger-fiche70840-xpadder.html )
and it works perfectly under 7
I can now use my g25 pedals with my x52 without problems, i guess that'll solve g940 issue as well.

hmm i shout victory a bit too quickly i guess, after some more test , this systems is not applyable to a asbolute throttle and the rudder is not recognised as axis so i have no analogics input.
As it emulate keyboard stroke or mouse axis.
