Your best bet if you're gonna give it some real abuse. Is a shed load of cash to burn through if you're on a budget, though the cheaper ones would probably be ok, but you're right that a cheap *** stick and throttle with twist is prob. Never had that problem with any later sticks though. I gave mine up mostly because the gameport was no longer supported, however I'd started noticing that the stick was becoming less and less centred and the 'deadzone' on the stick wasn't great enough to accommodate it. The HOTAS would have to have a LIFETIME guarantee against such defects for me to consider it, so for the first time ever I'm going to attempt to use keyboard/mouse in order to play MWO. A cheap $20-30 joystick going bad compared to a $250+ one, ugh don't wanna think about it. The software could not compensate for this and I had no mechanical skills to disassemble it and fix the hardware.īecause of this, I could never drop money into a HOTAS. Microsoft Force Feedback 2 Drivers Windows 10Įach one failed in the same way: The torso twist would go 'loose' and when you weren't twisting, the Mech would register as if you were. Not joking, but from the time I got into MW3 and then ended my 'career' in MW4:Mercs, I had gone through about 8-10 Microsoft Sidewinder Precision Pro Joysticks (no force feedback) I was so used to their feel and button layout that I didn't want to get a different one. Because of this, I could never drop money into a HOTAS.

I went to microsofts website to get the drivers and they are not there.

I've got Windows XP and want to install the microsoft Sidewinder Precision Pro joystick. As Microsoft's first SideWinder joystick, the 3D Pro was responsible for. Shop for PC and Mac software including downloads, Small Business.
