March 12, 201214 yr Hello good people,First of all, nice to meet you all :)I just joined AVSIM forums, even though i've been lurking for a while now :) I am amazed with how nice and cool AVSIM community is (compared to many other forums).The thing i noticed first is that everyone is always willing to help and lend you an advice. I think that newcomers, such as myself, appreciate that a lot.And now back to the topic:I have a Logitech G940 and was using it with FSX for a while (although through FSUIPC) and after an hour of tweaking, got it to work properly and all. However, when i use it in Flight (should i also mention i LOVE Flight and think it is absolutely wonderful), i seem not to get any force feedback effects. And i am not talking just about "shaking" and stuff, but also it behaves exactly the same as in Logitech profiler calibration, meaning the force needed to steer or pitch is always the same. So that lead me to believe that Flight still doesn't support FF controllers :( Sill, i could be very wrong so that's why i am asking you, if you have the similar problem or have you maybe found a workaround for this particular issue?Thank you in advance.P.S. English is not my native language but i hope you understood what i was trying to say here :)Cheers
March 12, 201214 yr welcome to avsim!I do not use FF myself but heard that FF is indeed not supported (yet?). But glad you like flight as much as I do.

March 12, 201214 yr Author welcome to avsim!I do not use FF myself but heard that FF is indeed not supported (yet?). But glad you like flight as much as I do.Thank you for the welcome :)Too bad FF isn't supported yet. I loved how it worked in FSX and how you were able to notice a huge difference when flying different aircraft, at different speeds, etc. However, i am sure MS will implement the support soon enough.As for liking Flight, "like" is a bit of a weak word for how i feel about it. I am all about as much realism as possible and having read real world pilot opinions on forums, i finally know i was right; Flight took it to another level (compared to other sims). Flight model is fantastic, graphics are really good, especially aircraft models, water looks cool too. It is not REX by any means but still quite good for a default product. There are few things here and there that need some fixing / tweaking (not displaying proper aircraft in multiplayer sometimes, some clouds look exactly the same as in FSX, etc) and of course plenty of things we still don't have (ATC, AI, commercial aircraft) but all in all - i am extremely satisfied :)I hope MS gives us loads of stuff in the future cuz i am thrilled with what i have so far and believe Flight will just grow bigger and better.Cheers
March 12, 201214 yr "like" is a bit of a weak word for how i feel about itsimiliar here. little bit like dating a girl :Love: . I do not want to say love yet, might spoil the moment :Broken Heart: . imagine MS would lean back, rather want to see more from them. but indeed, as I posted somewhere here yesterday, since flight came out I did not even start fsx. that says a looooot! but again, don't tell MS :Whistle: Phil Leaven i5 10600KF, 32 GB 3200 RAM, ASUS 4070 12GB EVO, Asus ROG Z490-H, 2 WD Black NVME for each Win11 (500GB) and MSFS (1TB), Rolling Cache 16GB, Photogrammetry always OFF, Live Weather and Live Traffic always ON, Res 2560x1440 on 27"
March 12, 201214 yr Author Haha, don't worry, i will not tell them! Even if they tried to extract it from me! :)I also didn't start FSX since, feel kinda bad about it but Flight is just so enchanting.P.S. We are soooo off topic but who cares :) No one's even looking at my thread lolCheers
March 12, 201214 yr You are wrong! Lots of people are looking at your comments. I also have not been back to FSX, but I will be at some point. I might have more time if I could just stop reading the forums.You get your point accross very well.
March 12, 201214 yr Hey Eevun, welcome to the forums!You are right, Avsim is truly a great community for flight simmers to hang out.Only problem is , it can get kind of addicting and one can find him/herself having to split time between flying and reading/posting.I understand that G940 is a pretty neat setup, while I am sure you are dissappinted support is not in Flight, don't give up hope. There are many things I am sure that are planned that did not make it in the first release, as they moved the release date up and focused more I think on taking care of as many bugs they could first and foremost. Track IR support did not make it either, and I am hopefull it will be added soon as well. Don B
March 12, 201214 yr Author @Air1:I believe you regarding both things you said. I also didn't start FSX since i acquired Flight and also understand that you're spending a lot of time on forums instead of flying :) We are a social kind after all.@Dburne:Thanks for the welcome :)You know, when the community is nice and friendly, it becomes more of a place where people virtually hang out, rather than just exchange experiences and seek advice. I'm always happy to be a part of such a community.As for my G940, honestly i am more than satisfied with it. The build quality is on par with high end Logitech products, it's sturdy, comfortable and makes a virtual flying experience one step closer to the real thing :) I love it. I am sure MS will include support for our products (Track IR as well, as i plan to buy it rather soon), it's just that it is probably not on their priority list at the moment.Cheers

March 12, 201214 yr It's only the force feedback that's not working, right? I just ordered a G940 set.
March 12, 201214 yr Hey Eevun,I will join in with the others and welcome you to AVSIM and the Flight Forum. We are just starting to build a community here so you are in on the ground floor. Please help us to make it into something we can all be proud of. Please write the Flight team about Track IR as Don suggested.Kind regards,

March 13, 201214 yr Author @Roboray:As far as i know, it affects all FF controllers, not just G940.@Dburne:I just sent them an email expressing my thoughts and urging them to provide us with a FF and TrackIR support (even though i still don't own TrackIR :) ).@SpiritFlyer:Hello sir and thank you very much for the welcome :) I am very happy to be a part of this community and looking forward to helping as much as i can.Also, as i said to Dburne, i wrote to MS Flight team.Cheers

March 13, 201214 yr Too bad FF isn't supported yet.looking through the flight.cfg file I found this:[CONTROLS]force_master_gain=10000force_stick_force_enabled=1force_stick_shaker_enabled=1force_gear_bump_enabled=1force_crash_enabled=1force_ground_bumps_enabled=1 seems it will come...
