Hello,
I have problems with USB joystick (not under world known name). The joystick has 5 axis, 12 button, POV and vibrations; System: XP-OS ATHLON2500, 512MB, GeForce 5600-128MB etc.. The problem is when I start new game (i.e. fast fly) the aircraft nose is going down (relatively fast). This situation is similar to uncenterd joy but the
controller is well centered in system gamepad options. I noticed that when I do not install driver for the joy and let the OS find the proper, this problem not occur - then aircraft nose is slighlty going up (really slow) but it is not such unconvenient like in previous case. It could solve my problem but when drivers for the joy are not installed then vibrations does not work (other buttons and axis does).
So firstly I thought that this is the joy drivers error/mismatch. But I found that the problem does not occur in the game (when drivers installed) in following situations:
1. after unsuccessful mission (i.e. fast fly) when I run mission one more time without exiting to the main menu (retry);
2. in some training missions;
3. in ubi.com network game in 10/12 cases;
Additional hint is when I have this problem I can't trim the joy by "ctrl+.,/;".
also after install 1.01 patch (for original version of the game) described problem doesn't occur. Instead of it in training missions is a lot of problems with controlling the aircraft(strange behaviour), but rest of game modes, i.e. fast fly, load mission and campaign can be played without joystick problems.
Does anyone have idea how to get rid of joystick problems?

P.S. There are no alternative joystick drivers.
