Joystick not showing up in Linda

Featured Replies

I have the Thrustmaster Cougar MFD.It does not show up in the joystick / HID devices in LINDA but shows up as a HID/joystick in Windows 7.Is there something I can do to enable this device with LINDA?Thanks

As I can see MFD doesn't report of itself as a Joystic. It's a game device, but not a "Joystick" type.

My Nostromo is a type of game pad that seems to be similar to the Thrustmaster Cougar MFD. The Nostromo is not considered a joystick (game controller, same as the Thrustmaster) in Windows 7 but the Nostromo shows up in LINDA.Does LINDA uses axis to determine what is a joystick?Is there a way to "fool" LINDA and have her accept the Thrustmaster Cougar MFD as in input device? I can use FSUIPC to configure the Cougar but LINDA would be my preferred way. Thanks for all your help

I guess i have the same problem of a gamepad not showing up - is there a workaround?

Wait for the next LINDA update (v1.04). It will be out soon.
