Ah Wouldn't you know it? I bit the bullet and bought a Logitech Wingman with FF and everything - I haven't even been yelled at by the wife for it...

My %@#&! Rudder pedals (CH) won't work! Neither will the throttle wheel on the JS! I have been monkeying around with the games set up area, and I can't get it going. It won't let me select Joystick for throttle control - without giving it up for flight control, and the "throttle" selection is faded out - not letting me even select it! Please tell me I'm not hosed out of using what seems to be an awesome stick!!!!

ok, got the rudder pedals going by going into Windows. But in Windows (Settings->Control Panel->Game Controllers) the throttle wheel works JUST FINE!! How come I can't get it to work for me? (The point here fellows, is to have the wife come home and see how much blinkin' FUN I'm havin' with the new toy, right? )

Check on throttle not joystick. Throttle means the one on your joystick.

The "Throttle" selection is faded out, and I cannot click on it.


I even tried going into the .ini file. I see a part that reads "Throttle: " with nothing after it. Noting that "rudder was followed by rudder, I tried entering throttle after throttle, but that did not work, either, and was deleted by the EAW prog after I tried it...
