I've installed FU3I having a problem atm, when ever i fly i always vear right, and can only (using the keyboard) turn right or go straight.My rudder settings are probably messed up, but i can find on what of setting the rudder to my joysticks Z axis (you can only set up the turn and pitch in the controlls options).i have the same problem with my joysticks throttle control.Any idea how to fix this.

Welcome to the FU3 forum, Ian :-wave Have you calibrated your joystick in the OPTIONS menu ? My rudder controls are "<" and ">" on the keyboard, with "?" to centre the rudder, but I use the joystick for everything else.I assume that you are currently flying around in the default version of FU3 ? Have you installed the FU2 San Francisco scenery ? Did you take my advice, and NOT install the outer terrain ? ;-)When you get your control problem sorted out, don't forget to have a good look at the sloppy state in which some of the taxiway lines and AI pathways were left at various airports in the Seattle region. In addition, make a note of the rather crude models used for the AI planes. When you install my Seattle 2005 pack and Ansgar Avermeyer's high detail AI Pack, you will notice a MASSIVE improvement in both of these features ;-)Best Wishes,Christopher Low.PS. Do you have FSAA and anisotropic filtering activated ? These make a huge difference to the quality of the graphics.

Ralph,He has actually installed the outer terrain scenery, but it's worth pointing out that the ONLY reason that I advised him not to install it is because (like me) he is a self confessed "graphics **" :-)Chris Low.

after a search, i've solved the problem by disabling my gameport in my BIOS, and unplugging my PS2 pad.

Excellent news, mate. Now you can think about upgrading your FU3 world to the 2005 version ;-)Chris Low.
