  • I have just been out to the shops and picked up a copy of PC-Gamer (a UK mag) and to my shock and horror i have found a section saying that it is now possiible to play FL with a joystick!!! it reads like this


    ''Scandal! The last great space sim (E.V.E aside) seemed tailor-made for joystickery. Seeing as it involed chasing high-speed starships across intergalactic skies, but inexplicably came without support for them. This can be instantly remeidied with freebie app Joystick Mouse - http://mystikeep.com/shareware/joymouse which enables a stick to emulate a rodent. It wont introduce the force feedback effects Freelancer would so hugely benifit from, though.


    I havent tried this myself yet as my m8 has my copy of at the mo but should anyone actually makes this work pls let me know :D

  • It works, but it's a little weird for FL. Easier just to use the mouse. It makes the game feel sluggish, is not configurable, and needs a lot of work to actually be usable for gaming.


    Just my opinion though, try it out for yourself and see what you think of it.

    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.
