Foxy Version 3.0 - Released 4th December, 2002
- Added support for David's compiler, to highlight an error in the macro file when detecting macros using reserved words in their names.
- Added support for new statement: USE CHORDED_FDFU and updated manual/help file on this statement.
- Improved search and replace ability to deal with larger files.
- Added to Composer, USE PROFILE section, ability to insert without AUTO or CUSTOM, and updated manual/help file on this statement.
- After a download, Foxy and the Launcher can now ensure that NumLock is on.
- Added to Cougar menu HOTAS View, MultiDevices and HOTAS Cleanse.
- Added support for THR_RANGE to Composer.
- Fixed some display issues on XP.
- Improved mode detection after reboot/computer startup. This feature can be turned off from the Unsupported Options application. Added ability to resynchronise mode detection - useful with multiple Cougars connected to one computer. Added to Launcher as well.
- Split up installation into 2 files - an install for Foxy and an install for the flight sim joystick and macro files. There are advantages from a software point of view regarding the installer in doing this, and significantly reduces the download size if they were combined.
- Manual has been split up and manuals can now be added by users without needing a main software update. Useful if other users want to develop their own manuals, eg. A Hardware manual.
- Foxy will now look for layouts and readme files associated with the USE FOXY GRAPHIC and README statements in a joystick file, in the same directory as the joystick file.
- Added a "Print selection" menu item to the File menu in Foxy and the Template Editor. This will not only print just a selection of text, (or all of the text if none is selected) but also uses a different printing routine to fix an issue seen by some with the ordinary printing routines (see this thread).
- A bug when applying profiles from Foxy and for the Launcher is fixed.
- Fixed bug in Composer when inserting RPT and DLY statements - these were always inserted on a new line.
- Fixed bug in Slash window swapping /H and /A, and also missing slash modifier on Korgy.
- Added a couple of other files to support FS2002 and F4 SP3. Slight changes made to the USAF file. New IL2 file added. These files are in the Flight Sim Support Pack.
- Added coding to try and prevent characters being added to a joystick file directly after a download before the key tester window appears. Sometimes a file might get modified directly after a download when the Cougar generated characters.
- Revamped template Editor/Readme file editor. Added ability to align text, bullets, easier assignment of fonts and sizes.
- Added to graphical layout editors ability to align text - also added to the Formatter Window and easier management of fonts and sizes.

Foxy's Windows Joystick Analyser - Version 3.0 - Added ability to show axes as % values - useful when writing statements that require these values (eg. LOCK (THR, 75%)) or for determining where the détentes are. This is selectable from a menu although is always on by default.
