Ive been using my red button MS FFB Pro2 USB with both IL2-46 and IL2-COD
on Vista Home Premium without the Sidewinder software. The force feedback
works great and I like it better than either my TM Cougar (FCC1) or WartHog.
The last Windows OS where the Sidewinder software worked is on my WinXP
system. There are ways to get it to run on Vista or Win7, but why bother.
As it was said before, just map the stick buttons right in the IL2 control GUI.
THe problem I have with IL2 and controllers, is if you use TM MFDs, you have
to unplug them else they mess with the joystick IDs that the stick needs.
