Joystick not being Recognized

Post by partiesplayin »

Hey im using an old Saitek cyborg 3d usb https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4067/4493509539_e590e6ec2a.jpg and they stoped making drivers for it since windows 2k . but it works in some other games ive trying.

why is my joystick not being reconized and what can i do to help it. Its a 12 botton with a throttle and 1 hat. it may be old but it still is in great shape and i would like to use it on this game .

what can i do to make the game detect my joystick, /


Thanks

You probably have another game device as detected by Windows. Both games support multiple simultaneous control devices, so you likely just need to select the ID your Saitek is on, then map controls. Use the left and right arrow buttons at the top of any key/button or axis control menu to select different ID's until you find the one that responds to your joystick.
