September 7, 201114 yr HiI still use the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick :-) and now after moving to a new computer ,when i press and hold the joystick buttons next to the POV hat , i dont get a continuous movement.I use this buttons to get upwards and downwards ,forward and backwards movement of the eye . So i have to press them again and again to get the movement i want even if in the controls assigment they are set to be in highest repetitive mode. Is it something with the computer ,the joystick or the OS win7 64. By the way it happens both in fs9 and fsx. intel core i7 2600k 4.4GHZ | Asrock z68 pro 3 | G.Skill "xl" 8192MB (4096MBx2) DDR3 CL9 RipJawsx 1600MHZ Noctua NH-U12P SE2 | Sapphire HD6950 2GB DDR5 Dual Fan | Antec True Power Trio 650W Antec Three Hundred | CoolerMaster 120mm silentCase fan windows 7 64bit
September 7, 201114 yr Author Ok i figured it out finally.If someone wants to know how...this is what i found.I installed a new computer with win 7 64bit ,and on it i insalled both fs9 and fsx.The problem of the EyePoint (down ,up ,forward ,back ) moving using the joystick buttons appeared both in FS9 and FSX so i thought there is something that is beyond the simulators and it is related to the OS.So i checked the fs9 cfg file on my lap top - with Vista 32bit - where the joystick opertate the EyePoint just fine and saw that comparing to the fs9 installed with the win764bit there are differences.What was interesting that under the title of the joystick in FS9 - [JOYSTICK_MAIN {5D730F90-C542-11E0-8001-444553540000}]the values of BUTTON_DOWN_REPEAT where NEGATIVE like -1 BUTTON_DOWN_EVENT_03=EYEPOINT_BACKBUTTON_DOWN_REPEAT_03=-1 I dont why but probably it is an OS thing.So now all i had to do is fix those values to positive 3 and FS9 worked ok with the EyePoint moved by the joystick buttons. Now with this information i suspected that the same problem exists also in FSX .So after searching in Google i learned about the Standart.xml file and when i opened it again the same problem with negative values for the joystick under EyePoint entries.So i opened this file with notepad ..fixed the values to positive 3 copy and paste it to the original Standart.xml and... it worked . finally i can start fly like i was used to. intel core i7 2600k 4.4GHZ | Asrock z68 pro 3 | G.Skill "xl" 8192MB (4096MBx2) DDR3 CL9 RipJawsx 1600MHZ Noctua NH-U12P SE2 | Sapphire HD6950 2GB DDR5 Dual Fan | Antec True Power Trio 650W Antec Three Hundred | CoolerMaster 120mm silentCase fan windows 7 64bit
