    Ive got a Microsoft SideWinder Pro2 and it works fine in il2:fb but it isn't detected in Bf1942 or Desert Combat and i know its being detected by compy and is calibrated, how can i get it working in Bf1942?

    In a lot of games you have to tell it to use the joystick. I remember this from half-life - though playing FPS's with a joystick sucks if you ask me, lol.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    Strange my brother has Battlefield 1942 and plays Desert combat and i have set it up to use his Sidewinder Gamepad the old black coloured one that uses the MIDI port and it works very well in both games.
