Topic: Joystick and Mouseview Issue

hi everyone,
this mod is simply amazing ,thank's for us.
1) this is my second post ,unfortunately  i can't use the mouse view inside the fighter
i have try to use the ctrl button  (assigned as "observ" !?) it's not working .
i know it could be a gadget for some of you but believe me i use a stereo 3d hmd and to be inside a cockpit ( like already with lockon) and to fly in a star wars world is exactly what i'm waiting for since i'm 10 years old.

2) my joystick(thrustmaster top gun force feedback) is'nt recognised ,it's working perfect in my other games ,do you know a solution ? what kind of joystick do you use ?

thank's for all.

Re: Joystick and Mouseview Issue

1. Mouse view is not implemented yet. Hopefully it'll be in the next release.

2. I have this problem myself, as do others. My joystick works perfectly in Falcon 4.0 Allied Force, but when I try to use it in BF2142, the craft I'm flying will veer off to the left or right every three seconds or so. That is, after I've spent ten minutes assigning functions in the Controls menu. Major pain.

Get a Saitek X52 it works fine on all games.  In FS/BF2142 you have to go into options menu and set up the control configuration for it to recognise the controller.  On the Mouse view you can use the ctrl key in the A-Wing cockpit.

Don't even bother with the Saitek (im not going to check right now, but I believe its rather expensive) just get a logitech extreme 3d pro.  Its 30 or 40 dollars, and for the price it sports a hat control.  I love it, and it works like a charm in fs/2142 (you just have to set it up ourside of FS, or the controls won't take).
