Once I get the initial release for FSX done, I plan to start work on adding those features and others.

Re: Suggestion for yoke/stick combinations

Would it be possible to have a profile that actually acted as a "blanking" profile, and re-enabled the stock FS trim settings while it was active? ... It would be so very sweet if I could somehow tell FSForce "I don't want to use you for this aircraft" and have it disable itself until I load a plan...

Forum hacked

This forum got hacked Nov 1, so I had to restore from a backup, which means all posts in the Version 2.0 Beta forum are lost. :cry: I was running an old version of phpBB, which it turns out had some security vunerabilities. Who would have ever thought!

Beta Development

This sticky post will be used to keep you up-to-date on what's happening with the new version of FS Force. Work is nearing completion, with a tentative release date of late November. Version 2.0 will have all of the same features as version 1.0. I had originally planned to implement new features in ...

Topic: FSForce Causing Crash With FSGlobal?
Replies: 1

When you start a flight from the "Select a Flight" screen, FS Force examines the corresponding .FLT file to try to determine what aircraft you're flying. Maybe the .FLT file provided by the FSGlobal people has something non-standard in it that is causing FS Force some problems. Send me the .FLT file...

FS Force provides stronger forces, better forces and more realistic forces!! (In my opinion, of course. :D ).

Also note that there is a trial version of FS Force available which allows 10 free sessions. You don't have to rely on what others say ... try it out for yourself! :)

You may have to edit the aircraft to adjust the contact points. Unfortunately I don't know too much about that, so I can't be of much help.

Currently FS Force is programmed to respond to button presses for trim, so unfortunately your setup wouldn't work with FS Force trim.

Both the Saitek and the Logitech Wingman Strike Force 3D are "ok" joysticks, but not as good as the MSFF2, IMO. I noticed Thrustmaster has a force feedback joystick now ( Top Gun AfterBurner Force Feedback ). I think one of my customers said he had it, but I haven't heard how it rates compared to th...

There have been no reported problems using FS Force and CH Pro Pedals on the same machine.

FS Force only works with FS2002 & FS2004.

Sounds like everything is working fine! :) :) Keep in mind that with FS Force the trim works a lot differently than the default FS trim. With the default FS trim, you could actually make pitch changes (raise and lower the nose) using just the trim buttons. You can't do that in a real airplane, nor w...

but the force feedback while cruising is a bit much.
If by that you mean the centering forces are too strong, you can change that. Simply open up the Profile Manager, and edit that profile. There's a screen where you can modify the centering forces for aileron and elevator.
