schneck Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 Dear Pete, i use FS9.1 with FSUIPC & WideFS (registered). Nearly everthing works fine. But now i have a problem with WideFS. I built a joystick via Gameport (4 Buttons/4 potentiometers) connected at the client. It´s working perfect on the client, but on the server in fsuipc only the buttons are found. The Pots (2Axes/2rotarys) are not found. I tried everything i could, i don´t know what to do anymore... Is there a way to get them work? It should be recognized as a normal joystick (for some functions for my homecockpit) Thank you very much for your support & your very good work! Greets, Tobi (Germany/EDDS)
Pete Dowson Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 ... on the server in fsuipc only the buttons are found. The Pots (2Axes/2rotarys) are not found. Client axes have never been supported by WideFS! Before USB, when Game Ports only supported 4 axes and you were hard pressed to get more than one such port on a PC, I did think of adding this, but there's virtually no use made of game ports at all now, and USB can support up to 128 devices each with up to 8 axes, so it never has been worth adding. Sorry. Best connect then to the FS PC -- there's no reason why you need to have them on a client and they'll be much better (no latency) on the server. Regards Pete
