I have a Logitech Chillstream gamepad that I am trying to configure with fs2 open. All the features of the gamepad are recognized by windows and work perfectly in other games. There are two joysticks, the left one is recognized as the x and y axes, the right one is recognized as x and y rotation axes. In the freespace configuration both axes of the right joystick are recognized, but they are switched. When I press the x rotation axis, it assigns the y rotation axis and vice versa. It not only does this, but the x rotation axis doesn't respond in game. What I'm trying to do is use the x rotation axis for banking meaning when I press left and right on the right joystick, my ship banks. If I try to assign the y rotation axis to banking, it says in the options I've assigned the x rotation axis, and I can bank by pressing up and down on the right joystick, but this setup is pretty unintuitive. I hope I've explained this problem correctly, it's a little confusing. Like I said, the joystick's buttons and axes work perfectly in every other game, I'm not sure why it's not working in freespace.
Has anyone come across this problem? If not, does anyone have any suggestions?
