Hi, i have microsoft combat flight simulator europe series which is about 8 years old, im running this through windows vista the game has loader fine and plays well, the problem is when i try to use a joystick its a logitec wingman extreme digital 3d of about the same age, this also loads and calibrates perfectly until you are in the game and then it has no response, i have downloaded the soft wear from the logitec web site which didnt help

Well.. if you have windows xp.. then you can calibrate your controller fairly easily.

Go here:

Control panel:Printers and Other Hardware:Game Controllers:(your controller should be in the list):Advanced:Calibrate

This should solve your problem ;)

Sometimes on those games, if you used a mouse originally, they do not auto-detect that ur using a joystick now - go into the options tell the game ur using a joystick and also there you may be able to set custom control features (what button does what).
Please let us know how it went.

SOURCE: joystick will not work with Combat Flight Simulator WWII Europe

Some joysticks are not compatible with certan games for expmple when i am using flight simulator and change to my combat flight simulator i have to change joysticks
the only other thing i would think is try deleting the currently installed driver for the joystick and then download a driver for a joystick that is surported, it wont work as well but at least it might accully work

Make sure, that your Joystick is compatible with the version you are having problems with. If not, make sure that it's enabled in the configuration of MCFS. If none of those work, you will most likely have to purchase a more compatible Joystick.
