[Boeing]

I have two joysticks, a Saitek Aviator and a Logitech Attack 3. Neither joystick, when selected in the launcher, works in game. Not in game, not in the control binds screen. Are there any known issues with vista and 3.6.10?

[The E]

No, 3.6.10 has no problems on Vista.

What I would like you to do would be to generate a debug log (You do that by using the build marked with a "d" in the filename, run it, then go to the data folder and post the fs2_open.log file here), then we're hopefully going to see if FSO recognizes your Stick correctly. Also, make sure you have the correct Stick selected in the Launcher.

[The E]

First of all [code][/code] tags are awesome. Looking over your log, it seems as if FS2Open is unable to find your Joystick. Are you absolutely sure you selected it in the Launcher?

[Boeing]

Positive. Does not work with either joystick.

[The E]

What happens if only one Stick is connected?

[Boeing]

Same thing, originally I tried it with just the Saitek stick.

[The E]

Hmm. Sorry, but I have no clue what's going wrong here (I'm using Mouse and Keyboard, myself), so I guess we'll have to see if someone else is more clued up.

[Boeing]

These joysticks have both, at one point, worked with the game. But that was on XP.

Thanks for the attempt though!

[captain-custard]

stupid question really but here goes , try in this order

select joystick

click apply

select calibrate

calibrate

re click apply

run the game

go into options and controls and try binding the joystik buttons , just primary weapons as a test

then run any mission and see if the primary's are working

if you have already tried this then ... sorry for not helping

[Boeing]

I tried that multiple times, just did it again just in case...nothing.

Thanks though.

[captain-custard]

have you got the saitek drivers +software installed ? or the logitech etc, and does vista recognise your joystik , sorry more stupid questions

[Boeing]

I have the Saitek drivers and profiler software installed (I tried it using all profile modes), windows recognizes both my joysticks and allows me to calibrate them.

[Boeing]

Over the last few days I've tested my joysticks with ArmA and FSX...they both work with it.

Is there nothing I can do?

[Fury]

Select the joystick you want in the launcher. Launch FS2, go to options and control config. Click reset, yes and apply. Try now.

[Boeing]

Do you mean hit "defaults" than "accept"? That didn't work

Because I don't see a reset button in the control config, nor was there anything that said "yes" or "reset".

I've set my custom binds a thousand times before, it just won't work.


Edit: I reinstalled FS2 and the SCP using the installer.

It now recognizes my stick. It's under "Microsoft PC Joystick Driver" instead of "Saitek Aviator Stick".

[The E]

I surely hope you re-downloaded your mediavps after that.

[Boeing]

Yep. Went through and got the complete package, the ATI fix, one of the more recent builds, etc.
