controller question

henry7446 · 08-27-2006, 07:03 PM

i was wondering if it's possible to use two controllers for bf1942 at the same time. i have a logitech momo steering wheel that i like to use for driving jeeps and tanks. and i have a logitech attack 3 that i like to fly with. but the game only recognizes the flight stick if they are both plugged in. also when i do use the steering wheel and i exit the game, when i go to play again the controls are backwards. for example when i turn left i go right and if i hit the brake i go forward. so then i have to go assign controls again. any help would be great. thanks.

ur idea is good but most controlers can not be put in at the same time they do not usally work then there might be a way but i do not think so and for the backwords thing try creating a new profile just for useing that controler and it maybe i think there is a invert thing in the controler menu so keep trying thought there might be a way

yeah i didnt think there would be a way to do that. would be really cool though. ill try your idea with the backward problem. i won't be bumming too bad if it doesn't work though because i figured a way using my flight stick and my mouse to control everything and i really like it. i did find another problem though that you might be able to help me with. when i assign the flight sick x-axis to strafe right on infantry, it will just keep strafing right in the game without me pushing a thing. but it works fine when i use it for flying and driving vehicles. did the same thing with a saitek analog gamepad that i have. this is not a big deal because i use the top buttons on the flight stick to strafe anyway. i was just curious as to why it does that because it might cause a problem for me in the future. thanks for the help.

most likely the dead zone is not set which is basically there is a space u have to move the controler before it kicks in as you moving it try turning the sesativity down that may help it i think i tried this ame thing and excpirenced this as well but i do not remember how i fixed it

I say just configure one of them. Otherwise it won't reconize both of them. Or you would have to each time you play configureone then when you are done with it, configure the other one.
