I got a new computer and got the typical problem that ive heard 100,000 times but forgot the solution: My afterburner is broke...

....and i need a new joystick. New sound card has firewire not Midi. :(

Just in case you need more detail, to follow Hippo's instructions, make a new shortcut to your FS2 exe, right-click and go to the shortcut's properties, then look for compatibility.

Joystick: Saitek Cyborg 3D Gold (about £20) or Saitek Cyborg Evo (about £30-£40). Beats all that Microshaft stuff hands-down. :)

All i want is a basic joystick with a missile button and a primary button... thats it. Now all i can find are joysticks that look completely stupid and have 8 buttons on the top, 2 triggers, 4 buttons on the sides of the stick itself as well as 15 buttons on the base... enough to drive a guy crazy.

Gotta love Windows 9x mode... but i cant play at all without a joystick. I asked a guy in a computer store the other day if they sold usb adapters for midi and he said yes but they go for $150+. Forget that...

I went out and got the Logitech Attack 3. Works good, i just wish the base was a little more stable as i have a tendency of turning the stick hard.
