Hauksbee Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) Ah, the good old days of flight sims. Occasionally I get the itch to go up a T-Bone with some FW 190s, but CFS1 (as I think of it) will not respond to the joystick. I go to Settings, and along the way I get as many as three Dialog Boxes saying "Your ( )device has changed from (gibberish) to (gibberish). Would you like to reset the control assignments? (recommended) (See attached) I always say 'yes'. When I get into Settings and arrive at the graphic that allows me to test the axes of control, the little dialog boxes know that I'm using a Thrustmaster Flightstick-X (no other choices appear) and the graphic responds nicely to Pitch, Yaw and rudder Rotation. The Hat Switch also responds. All systems seem to be working. But when I go to Free Flight and try to take off, the jotstick is dead. Anyone know how to correct this? Thanks.

I would post this at "The Sim Outhouse" in the CFS1 forum. It is still supported there with current players. http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/forumdisplay.php?12-CFS1-General-Discussion Cheers MarkL Quote

Hauksbee Posted January 17, 2012 Author Posted January 17, 2012 blimey...good old cfs1.... "Good old" indeed. I remember, back in the day, when I walked into a computer store and there was this huge stack of CFS1s and promo video running on a monitor. I was dazzled by the graphics...pixelated clouds and all. I was hooked. Whoever thought back then that one of the descendants of CFS1 would morph into our beloved OFF? Thanks for the tip, Markl. I'll check it out. Quote
