My joystick was giving me a bit of worries yesterday, so I went a bit crazy and ordered this

what do you reckon..?

[RWP]DJM · « **Reply #2 on:** December 23, 2007, 16:04:37 »

Nice Joystick setup......not so nice with the price though

Can you tell that I don't like spending too much money?

saltydog · « **Reply #3 on:** December 23, 2007, 16:07:05 »

I'm shocked, took you to be a big spender..

It should be here the end of the week, with Christmas and all
Ironical, my joystick works fine now..

I use a logitech G25 for ss08, i use the steering wheel on 900 degrees, the 6 speed shifter is good for individual engine control, i use gears 1/2 for engines 1-2 forwards backwards 3/4 for engine 1 f/b and 5/6 for engine 2 f/b

Works extremely well with ship simulator 2008

saltydog · « **Reply #9 on:** December 23, 2007, 16:15:55 »

nice gear shipmate, looks like you're a racing fan too..

On another note: I really enjoy the new update. Multiplayer looks really good.
Compliments to all who helped develop it.

I use this also but prefer using the steering wheel + h gate gear box rather than these....

I still use my 5-year-old Joypad (not for Ship Sim though

)

Edit: Wrong pad actually, mine has 2 Analogue Sticks on it (like PS gamepads

)

saltydog · « **Reply #12 on:** December 23, 2007, 16:36:16 »

Interested in a joystick ? (good as new..)

so what do you use in ShipSim

[RWP]DJM · « **Reply #13 on:** December 23, 2007, 16:37:34 »

LOL, not at the moment

Traddles · « **Reply #14 on:** December 23, 2007, 16:39:20 »

I have a rather good one! It's a mouse.

Watch some for me while you're there

Seriously though, I used to watch lots of racing/rallying, but for some reason I stopped

if it's anything like last year, you can follow whoever you want live..

Shipaddict · « **Reply #22 on:** December 24, 2007, 14:57:04 »

Is it flash, or another movie format or what? My pc crashes anytime I watch a movie if it isn't flash.

saltydog · « **Reply #23 on:** December 24, 2007, 14:58:27 »

no, they have their own system, more like following dots on a map..
don't know what they have up their sleeve this year..

Shipaddict · « **Reply #24 on:** December 24, 2007, 14:59:34 »
