without reading the entire article....apologies there, is there a huge difference between the pro and regular TIR3? or is the 120 vs 80 fps just slight? i.e. is it worth the extra $30?

From what Ive read elsewhere, its a little smoother (duh I suppose) with the pro.  I cant say I think that its so big a deal with most monitors limiting updates to 60-80 times a seconds, but Im sure there is a diference.  Since I am a registered owner of LFS, I got a $30 discount and just decided to consider it a free upgrade.

I agree totally with your article.
Even thougth it Pacific Fighters doesnt support the full vector capablity, the game greatly benifits from the vector add on. In
AHII it is just perfect.
Wish I could figure a way to be able to turn it on and off from in AH though.

My on/off switch is set for the right Shift key.  Works in AH... is that what you are looking for Pongo?

You can just map a key to your joystick....assuming you have a programable stick of course.

I hate loding profiles for joysticks. I think so Oct..ill take a look.
F12 has always worked for center..but the default key for disable has never worked. Maybe its mapped to somthing in AH?

I don't remember what the defaults were, but I remapped them to keys I never used in AH.  F12 is my vox channel key.  Right shift disables, End centers, and numpad Delete enters 'precision' mode.

Worked fine Oct, thanks.
F9 must have been mapped in game.
