Hi Everyone,
I've started playing this and it's awesome. Two quick questions. I have a Wingman Strike Force 3D joystick with a slider. How do I set the slider to adjust my speed. No matter what I do I can't figure it out.
Also, for some reason, I don't think I get force feedback. Any Ideas?
Lastly, playing through the freespace port, I get an option to select the STR campaign without changing the mod to STR? Is that by default or is this some other campaign?
Thanks again!

With my Logitech I set forward throttle to keystroke "A" and throttle back to keystroke "Z". Then at the start of the mission I tap the " [ " key so when the throttle is between forward and back my speed is set to 1/3. This is the way I have found to adjust speed with the throttle slider.

Set the slider axis to absolute throttle.
I don't know how Wingman Strike Force 3D differs from regular Wingman Force 3D, but this works for me.

Hang on, sorry, I'm really confused. My slider is exactly that, it's a little thing that slides at the base of my joystick. How do I set the slider axis to "absolute throttle". Even more, what does keystroke "a" or "z" have to do with the actual slider...
Sorry if it's a dumb questions...first time I've played a space sim since Microsoft's Allegiance...
Plus any news on the force feedback?

Use the in-game options menu. In the mainhall, press F2, then click on "Control Options"
-
Then, go to ship controll options, double click on "absolute throttle" and move the slider.

Playing Silent Threat with FSport I think you get the original Silent Threat

And for the Force Feedback, I think you need to tick the "enable force feedback" option in the "audio/joystick" panel of the launcher. I don't have a Freespace installation handy at the moment, so those might not be the exact labels, but that's the general idea.

While this is true I am obligated to point out that the original Silent Threat sucked really bad, STR blows it away......
