I am not sure how to get it to work with FSXSE. I am not seeing anything pop up when I start the flight sim. I am loading the sim most the time from RexWx so may be that is the problem? I just picked up a Sidewinder 2 and found your website so just trying it out in SEA area. Thanks for any help.

Does FS Force come up when you run FSX? My installer is probably going to need some modifications to configure FS Force in situations where both FSX and FSXSE are installed. For now you're going to have to manually configure the dll.xml and the exe.xml files for FSXSE. I'll be back later this afternoon with detailed instructions.

After a bit more research, I think it will require more than just some "manual configuration". I'll need to do a new release, which will be a bit tricky because I am in the middle of a major upgrade.

Will keep you posted.

If I uninstall the old version do you think I would have better luck? I was testing out the new FSX:SE and it seems to be working just great so I plan on uninstall the other FSX version once I get my flight log files moved over. Thanks for the help.

No, uninstalling FSX won't make any difference. I'll probably be releasing a patched version of FS Force to handle FSX-SE tomorrow or the next day.

Ok. Well, that took longer than expected, but I think it is done now. You can download a beta version here : fsforce 2.7.0.2

You should just be able to install over top of your existing installation and try it out. Start Profile Manager first so it can install trim gauges, etc. Please let me know if it works, or if you have any problems.

Russell thanks very much getting this done, to describe force feedback as sloppy without Fsforce is an understatement

A quick flight installing over the top works just fine but I will have more flight time tonight and will let you know if there any issues
