Hi I used to fly SF2 all the time and then I got away from it for 11yrs. I am trying to get back in it but I’m 65 now a USAF Vet and I’m on heavy pain meds so my thinking is a little foggy. I was hopeful that someone still really into the game could help me figure out why the game isn’t recognizing my controls which are the same ones I used 11yrs ago . I believe I have updated the firmware but I’m running into script problems on the same stuff I used in the game. I just need to talk to people about this and the game and maybe it will start coming back. I’m disabled and depressed I was hoping This could occupy my mind and time. Thank You for any kind souls who would be willing to help 😊🙏🏻

Whats the current version of strike fighters and where in game can I verify mine? Did it mess with the mods? What did it improve? Does anyone remember?

Daddyairplanes- you know the Yugoslav war nato got involved in?

Wrench how are you doing? Pains in the ass are hard to forget huh?😉I saw a few familiar names over at DCS doing Mods I didn't know if anyone I remembered was still here but so far I remember everyone who's tried to help me with getting me back up. Did any of the mods ever see the light of day? Burma WW2 and 90's Balkans war ? I saw someone did a big desert storm mod I would like to get when I get everything working.All the Sims that have come out may look nice but they don't hold a candle to what can and has been done here. And I remember your name on a lot of mods you are very prolific and I just wanted to say thanks for your work it's has made the sim so much more enjoyable! Well I will try to behave and not be such a pesterer but I loved your work! See around and I hope all is good. Thanks for saying hello 👋

In the Controls section of the menu what do you have listed for "Thrust vector control " ? Underneath Throttle? And why would the rudder identified by the game not work properly? It's fine in calibration but sloppy to non existent in game? I'm trying to get a response from Third wire been over a week on Discord and nothing yet. Have any of you fine gentleman every run across anything like this? Ugh thought I was there but because of you guys I had ideas to try and I at least got them recognized the stick and throttle work as expected....

Thank you MiGBUSTER! For your help and reply on the controls not recognized. Was 2013 the last patch? What did it patch and where can I find it?

Now I have to find out what the problem target has with my FCF. files not loading?

MiGbuster I remember you! I’m running SF2 on win7 premium home cause I modded the hell outta SF2 inc WW2 campaigns and maps so I am playing it on that. And I tried what you said and it looks like it works! Thanks to all of the wonderful people I remember who helped me with this.

Yes the Computer sees them and they show up fine in Calibration and work properly that's the head scratcher? Thanks for your reply!

Does anyone use WinWing controllers in the game?

Is there a file for the controls maybe that I need to delete so a new one can be created?

That’s what I do but it doesn’t change with the Thrustmaster warthog hotas and my Saitek pedals. But it does recognize the Winwing Hotas but still no pedals?

I can’t get the game to recognize my controller. Thanks for your feedback

I Think I remember you guys and wrench I was pestering him about new maps like ww2 Burma and a Balkans campaign Did those ever come about? I have a lot of mods and aircraft that I can fly in SF2, IL2 is good but limited and DCS has a learning curve but is also limited that’s why I want to get back into it. Any way I remember you all being really good guys I think I recognized some old names from here on DCS. 11 yrs will really wipe your memory on this stuff and I did everything except making mods on here don’t know where it all went. I’m gonna try to get it back just need a little refresher. And I want to start to support the site again.

Thanks Eric, I hope the game is helping to occupy your time and of some help. My mobility is kinda limited so flight simming may be a good match for me. Thanks again for responding and I wish you better days and less depression in them.🙂👍

Can you use winwing Controls with SF2? Has anybody? I never used LUA file’s before I know you can in Great battles IL2, and DCS but I haven’t tried on those platforms yet.

Yes it’s one of the problems I’m running into the script which I used a million times for the game is coming back with script error problems? Launched from the TARGET software which is latest download. And by the way Thank You Guys for your help! I’m just stuck without it.

The controllers are new I remember buying them when I started having problems with the other old warthog stick a wire had come loose and I had to solder it back and the Thrustmaster software saw it again. But I was using the new Warthog hotas I bought trying to get into the game. Was there some kind of update while I was gone to the game? I was up to date back then. The computer calibration app sees all the stick,throttle and MFD’s and they work properly there.

Oh sorry yes the stock control work keboard strokes.

Hi, They are Thrustmaster warthog HOTAS on Win7 64bit and Saitek pro combat pedals. I did buy a winwing throttle and f-16 stick but do lua files work on SF2? The game saw those but not my rudder pedals…. I forgot to mention I was a member here and a financial supporter all those years ago.
