    settings

Hi folks -

I'm running FG 0.9.8 on Win 2000 (binaries obained from flightgear.org)
and tried to correctly install  my joystick.
I use  a  "Logitech  Extreme  3D  Pro USB". (The sick itself works, as
js_demo.exe suggests)

I had to slightly modify the corresponding  (adjust name)  *.xml file.
The  excerpt from the  log  (i set  debugging  level
to "info") seems  to tell me that  the  stick  had  been  recognised.

However, the stick only behaves like a default stick and non of the
specific settings work. It was verified by looking
at  "browse internal properties". What may be wrong?

Hoping for help,
Stefan


Stefan.
I was having problems trying to get the Extreme 3D pro joystick working on my Mac under OS X.4 and I succeeded with the following fix. It may not work with Win 2000, but it may give you another direction to investigate.

Finally got my" logitech extreme 3D pro" joystick to work.Took 3 steps.
1. Transfered the xml discription from the 3D pro Win file to the 3D pro file (the description was exchanged). ((So you may not need this change. check the xml file)) 2. opened the default folder in folder input, opened the joystick.xml file. 3. replaced the joystick.xml file with the content of the changed 3D pro xml file.
The FG will now use the extreme 3D pro xml as the default.

This may be a rough hack but it does work. The descriptions of the keys are listed in the extreme 3D pro xml.
