Force Feedback

[Storm of When]

A lot of us go hunting for good, used MS FF2 sticks, i`ve got 3 , a CH stick and a whole bunch of others that I don`t really like. At the minute there`s a large centering force on the stick that is difficult to overcome (thx for the tip), i`ll have to remove the power connection till this is resolved, which i`m sure it will be. Is there anything from the devs regarding this?

sigh... I'll unplug my device also then... Been fiddling with the profiler. creating a new profile, linking it to the launcher in cliffs of dover map and setting to exclusive... all no go. there used to be an option in the profiler for non ffb games but i can't find it anymore. has it been removed??? centering force tick box does nothing.

I just spent 3 hours + to figure out how to get G940 to work and it's useless.No profile,no amout of changes makes any difference.The huge centering force is still there even after turning it off in profiler settings.Only option is to unplug it but then the joystick becomes all slopy.Hope they fix this at least get rid of that centering force if nothing else

There seems to be another Option...

I feel no large centering force on my MS FFB2. It's the same as running IL2 without FFB.... I've got 5

It seems we are being ignored, still no official word if IL2 CoD will ever have Force Feedback support.

+1 on FFB support.

theres a better solution, posted in the other G940 thread as well.

1- change settings in profile to enable centering spring in FFB mode to your desired %
2 - load up a sim that actually supports G940, unlike this one, eg a10c or Ka50 or even old IL2 titles
3- start flight in a quick mission or instant fly
4- quit that game and then load up COD. the settings applied to the J/S should remain on the stick after the other program is closed. In effect you're borrowing the other games J/S settings.

kind of embarrasing for IL2 that users have to rely on another game to make this one work huh

I have to agree. I'm one of the most positive and optimistic around here and can't fathom what they've been doing the past 8 years that FFB can't be implemented? This is an advanced flight simulator.

I'm all for them prioritizing performance and some other bugs first but I'm astonished that FFB is either going to be left out or dropped far down the list.

We're really going to have to keep on them, in a positive way, so they know how important it is.
