I got the MS FFB to work in MS Flight (only centering forces) by using the fsforce utility:
1) Launch MS Flight and start your situation/flight/mission
2) Now return to desktop, and start fsforce.exe (through menu, explorer, short cut, ...).
Fsforce will start up and show a window saying it waits for fsx - let it wait ... (do not close this window)
3) go back to MS Flight and the joystick now has centering forces (at least this is how it works for me)
The centering forces keep working for the whole MS Flight session, no matter how many more flights/misions/airplances are loaded. I tried the other way round (first start fsforce and then MS Flight), but this didn't work.
I have Win7 64bit.
I use MS Flight in full screen.
Force-feedback in X-Plane 11?

I have the same joystick (MS FF2). I first used XPForce, nice tool with quite a few options. But I experienced that in certain situation it kind of "looses" the force, which would then kick in too late, or sometimes the center would feel very slack (that was with XP 10 and early betas of XP 11). Could be my setup though ...
I then found the free plugin "x-force"by Christophe Saphar. It's a bit simpler, but very reactive and acurate. You can adjust force magnitude (forces increase with speed), plus ground bumps, and engine and gear vibrations (if you like this stuff - otherwise you can simply turn it off). Profiles are saved per aircraft.
Very happy with it!
Now if there only was a plugin that simulates realistic trimming for force feedback sticks like fs-force does for P3D/FSX ...
