Starlancer+ Microsoft Force Feedback 2 joystick= no force feeback effect

MSDOS401 · Oct 12th 2013

Hi, This is my first time posting so please bear with me.

Here is my problem, I have Starlancer installed on my Windows 7 32 bit machine, I also have a fully working Microsoft Force Feedback 2 joystick that works in the game except there is no force feed back effect.
I have check that the joystick drivers are properly installed and it I do get feedback through the test forces section of the properties page.

Any help would be appreciated.

on the starlancer options there is should be a point where you can activate force feedback
if that fails your best chance is to search for different drivers (i had this problems aswell once when the drivers were not compatible with win7)

Well the first thing I did was select the enable force feedback option, and that did not work so that is why i posted here. BTW there is no other drivers for this microsoft joystick. I cant be the only one with this problem, dose anyone else have this joystick?

Ok, i think i fixed the problem by using a tip from the similar threads window below, and it was to set the compatibility mode to Windows 98 and now force feedback works. But this introduced another problem the frame rate is very jerky as in it slows down and that included the ingame videos as well as the start up videos for the company labels. Any help?
