looksharp is correct pupo!

Look in this folder

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\parts\core\FF

In it you will find 7 or so files with the extention of *.ffe

You can del any or all of these files and it will remove the corsponding effect

I think the file you want to get rid of is the one called 'shake.ffe' or 'spring.ffe'

PS when I say del, I mean remove from that folder! I highly recomend you make a back up of all the files first, than remove one at a time to see which feature each affects.. The file names are pretty discriptive, so it should not be too hard

I'm kind of a newbie here, could you explain what effect this will remove?.....thanks

The joystick .ffe files only affect the force feedback on joysticks that have a force feedback funtion.

The .ffe forces govern how the stick moves and vibrates to simulate different sorts of shock, vibration, hits, bounces, and general resistance; so that you can feel these effects through the joystick.

If certain forces are too high they can interfere with your control of the plane (the joystick can become impossible to handle). Removing one or more of the files can remedy the problem.

Thanx FT...while the problem has not gone away, it's a bit better and I could live with it. I'm gauging my FPS using FRAPS, I wonder if that in itself is a problem? I guess, I will reinstall my vcard drivers and see what happens?

The only other thing, I can think of?
My monitor is 4 years old, Samsung 260 HD w/ 60 hz refresh rate with
1920 X 1200 resolution, default.

Thoughts?

The game seems to work okay till I try to join the ATAG server then the Launcher.exe crashed just as I'm at the point I can choose a team. I was able to join the 71st server and it did not CTD but there were no other players. Maybe it's the server running something odd in the mission?
