Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 joystick (HELP)

Featured Replies

I was wondering if anybody is using this joystick, and could give me a few pointers. When I set the joystick up, I seem to have good forces using the forces tab in properties, I have the level and tension forces set to high. When I get to the settings menu in FS9 I have everything checked on forces bumps, gear, etc. My problem is the joystick does not seem to have the forces that I have the settings set to in the Sidewinder softwear. In FS9 there is not much tension when turning, or pulling up on takeoff. I tried this about a year ago and just gave up because I was having the same problem. I would appreciate any help. Thanks.Andy
