Title: MS FFB2 Joystick issues
Post by: MSDOS401 on March 22, 2015, 08:56:12 pm

I have just installed FS2 and the latest FS2 open 3.7.2 RC5 on my Windows 10 Rig. When playing in vanilla FS2 force feedback works and all is fine. But force feedback does not work in FS2 open, joystick is detected and force feedback is selected in the Launcher. Does anyone else have this problem?

that is odd.  I have the same joystick, and the force feedback works fine with FSO, including RC5.  I am running windows 7 64 bit, though, not windows 10.  It does not sound like a driver issue, since it works for you with vanilla FS2.  The only time it did not work for me was when I plugged in the joystick after opening the launcher.  My USB headphones behaved the same way.  I just closed the launcher with the peripherals still plugged in, and opened it again and they both worked fine.

Are you using wxLauncher?
