Any Programs that automatically set up a joystick control for you? Like i have a PS2 Style Joystick, And i set it to engine 1+2 ahead and i dont touch it and it starts moving anyways. (The Ship)

Hi.

If you go to the Windows Control Panel, there should be a joystick calibration applet there.

If there isn't one, Google the make and model of your joystick. You should find a program for it, somewhere.

But, many of the older ones do drift somewhat. Nothing much you can do about that.

Switch precision steering off, of course.

Hey Terry, I was talking about like, It would automatically set up like, The game for you with the joystick instead of you doing it like "Up button for accelerate"

Creative Joysticks come with a game-specific profiler, so that you can set up a joystick with a different profile for each game.

And don't forget that you can go into the controls menu of ship simulator and set up the joystick from there.

Its really hard lol.

It is not.

[firestar12]

It is not.

Well sure, Not now. And you have the same joystick as i do? It was acting up earlier and i thought it would continue, Be shes not acting up anymore. Luckily.

so talking about joysticks i read a reply on my topic about joysticks and saw that firestar left something like i set the joystick in as engine 1 and 2 and it moved by itself (the ship) so i wanted to know does that happen to you guys should i worry about that or is there something wrong with his joystick

[Agent|Austin]

Mine works fine, it is hard to get 0 RPM though because my throttle doesn't have a notch in the center.

[bbydino05]

i see

It would be nice if I was intelligent enough to make my own controller.

Dont worry, Nothing will happen. And if it does, Just try later. My Joysticks Bran New And i LOVE IT.
And if you ever get a Joystick like this one here (This is the one i got) Try These Functions. They seem to be the Best.

Well FS, i think that is the most horrible set up that you can imagine. Why the trottle with the push buttons and the bowthruster with the thumbstick. It doenst make sense. With the trottle of the main engine on the thumbstick, you can manoevre your vessel very accurate. With your set up, you can only put in the engine in forward and reverse at full trottle. And why do you want to swith on and off the precision steering on your gamepad? You dont switch between that constantly.



Try something like this, you can select the push buttons for the horn, reset view or reset rudder/trottle when precision steering is enabled.

id rather like get two joysticks like the one i showed on my topic and like use it kinda like poseidon you know the joystick but for teh ocean star if you set one joystick to engines does that go for the rudder to
