FS FORCE

Hi,

I use a microsoft force feedback 2 joystick, the latest prepar3dv3 and the latest fsforce version.

Using the FSX trim system is normal.

Using the fsforce trim system I get this;

Applying trim momentarily in either direction will run the trim fully in that direction (trim runaway to the stop). This will happen on the ground and in the air (on the ground it will run the real trim to the stop, in the air it will run the force feedback trim to the stop).

If I hit shift after the force feedback trim has hit the stop, the real trim will run in the direction of the stop for as long as I hold shift.


I did mess with the FSforce.cfg with the previous version I had, to get the hat-switch trim to work. I haven't touched this version.

[General]
TrimClickAmount=500
TrimIndicator=0
PauseOnTaskSwitch=0
dwStartDelay=1
JoystickTrimUp=Rev1:POV:SideWinder Force Feedback 2 Joystick:{5AF09CD0-1EBC-11E3-8001-444553540000}:0:18000
JoystickTrimDown=Rev1:POV:SideWinder Force Feedback 2 Joystick:{5AF09CD0-1EBC-11E3-8001-444553540000}:0:0
DemoAreaInfo=1
PMWndPos=759,271

I didn't try to reinstall yet. Any ideas before I try that?

I was able to reproduce the same error on my system. It only does it when you program the POV as trim. I'll try to get a fix out for that tomorrow.

Thank you, Russel.

Just an update on this issue. It turns out that the culprit is P3Dv3. It is not notifying when the POV button is released. I may be able to come up with a work-around however. Might take a bit longer though.

Version 2.9.0.2268 is now available for download which contains a work-around to fix this bug in P3D v3.2. Just install over top of your existing installation. Please let me know if it fixes the issue.

Thank you Russel, it works great.
