Don't know if this has been beated around before or not, but I have a force feedback stick and have been a little bit let down by the lack of feedback in the stick in AH. It's far less than other games in the genre.

Things like recoil, heavy round strikes, close flak bursts, low level buffeting, and other buffeting effects are missing compared to "some other sims".

Well that off my chest.

Great game, keep up the good work

 Hiya Spyhawk. (are you the Spyhawk I saw in AW a couple of years ago?)  Anyway, FF is on the list per  HiTech. Just not far up on the list. It may be closer since he answered the question last time. I have a CH FFX gathering dust peninding FF implementation...someday, I hope.

Are you using the Sidewinder FF stick? I am having a problem with the game stomping out my stick drivers requiring a reboot to get them back. And what game port are you using? USB, Soundcard, if soundblaster, which one?

Yeah it's a Sidewinder. Using the older midi/game-port version, not the USB one. I have the latest drivers as of a year ago  

I never had any problems with it

I have the old one also. I'm finding out now that it's not just the stick drivers that get stopmed and they don't totaly get stomped. I decided to try playing with the mouse and after a while, the mouse got stomped.
