I remember years ago when Logitech released a brand new Force 3D Pro joystick. Then after about a year or so, it just disappears from the market, but Logitech still releases new joystick models afterwards but without Force Feedback. If flight sim was a dying market, no manufacturer would make any joystick at all. But then again, Flight sim has always been alive. I think it has something to do with the licensing of the patents for force feedback technology.
I would plug it in and then check via joy. Yes, from what I remember, it was an issue of patents and licensing. We can only wait entry to public domain, a different technology not cut off by patent fencing or luck that a license could be issued again in a reasonable way.
My Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 works perfectly fine in msfs without any additional software what so ever. It should work with anything that recognises DInput. Product ID: I always loved playing flight sim with it as well as Mech Warrior 2 back in the day. I paid good money for this fantastic joystick and there is nothing wrong with it hardware wise. But MS dropped dropped driver support for it and I wish they would bring it back!
I want to be able to use this with Flight Sim as well as my other games. Did you try to install whatever the latest windows driver anyway? There is already a Wishlist thread you should vote on requesting FFB support be reinstated. Thanks for the suggestion! We will be happy to help.
