Exactly, whereby the name can be obtained by running "js_demo(.exe)".

Here saving the file somewhere in $FG_ROOT/Input/Joysticks/ is enough for fgfs to pick it up. Consider to submit configs for which we don't have a driver yet. Also, there's no default js on a fixed position in the next version. Rather: the joystick driver with <name>default</name> is used as default. (Could be changed if this turns out to be problematic for some reason. But nobody complained yet. :-) m. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-users mailing list Flightgear-users@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-users 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
