Joystick not showing up in Linda

Recommended Posts

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

1. Make a scrrenshot of Windows Game controllers panel2. Make a screenshot of LINDA's Setup joysticks page ...and show them here

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

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