First, I've attached a copy of the Logitech WingMan Force 3D XML
file "wingman-force-3d.xml" I put together after getting one of
these for Christmas. (It would be nice if the force feedback worked,
but I haven't had time to play with it that much. Come to think about
it I'm not even sure forece feedback works under Linux in general.)
Besides providing the new file I also edited the higher-level
/FlightGear/joysticks.xml file to add the description for this joystick
as follows:
diff -n joysticks.xml_orig joysticks.xml
a22 1
<js-named include="Input/Joysticks/Logitech/wingman-force-3d.xml"/>
I've got nice joystick Logitech WingMan Force and found no file for it
in FG 0.8. If anyone interested, I offer it here. It is based on
Logitech WingMan Extreme configuration, but there are less axes (no
rudder:() and more (9!) buttons (actually, I don't use them all). Hope
it is useful.
with Sidewinder Pro 3d but I do not have a string. Also I do not have the
non-English strings for the USB stick. Note that this config is similar to
the Force feedback stick, except the axes for the rudder and throttle are
different on the Precision 2 USB and Pro 3d sticks.
lot, since otherwise a property that is never set or tied by
FlightGear itself will always be kept as a string and converted on
each access. That's why fgGetBool and friends could take up a lot of
processor time sometimes.
- new external file for joystick configuration
- designed for a basic three-axis, three-button joystick; others will
require some work
** keyboard.xml
- changed back to using index ('n' attribute) to represent key code
- switched to nesting for modifiers, so that they can all appear in
the same declaration
- bound 'b' to brake, but modified so that the brake is released
as soon as the button is
** preferences.xml
- start mixture at 1.0 (full rich), which is most appropriate for
take-off and landing
- commented out old joystick bindings
- added reference to external joysticks.xml file
