Joystick does not stay calibrated

Post by Ege » Thu May 03, 2007 8:18 pm

Good evening people, its been a while since I last time started a topic ^^

Anyways, I have had this strange problem since I bought and installed 1946.
When I start the game, it causes my joystick(3d pro from logitech) to recalibrate itself, which it does, end result being very bad. It fixes my rudder to certain spot, which obviously makes flying harder.
This happens every time I start the game(1/10 of times it performs the calibration well, so I gues its random)
Only solution I have found is to shut the game after opening it first, and then to set joystick in "default"-mode.

Its actually pretty annoying, especially when playing over internet, when recalibrating doesent seem to help.

Any advise or something :?

Edit: Reinstalled the game, problem has not appeared again, hope it stays that way.

Check if ther are any new drivers for your stick, I remember having a force 3d from Logitech and upgrading drivers helped a lot with Rowan's Bob. May be the issue here. Latest DX may have changed sth with your driver files also, so reinstalling of drivers could prove useful if the problem comes back.
