Listen Guys, Finally ironed out all the glitches and just wanted to appologize for taking my initial frustrations out on you, Told xp to recoginize my mouse as something other than a sidewinder and found the proper NewInput.DLL and the sim is running like a charm on my machine though I do have the vcard a tad overclocked. No more CTD,s Again Please accept my sincerest appologies. Almost forgot to add that BS is probably by far one of the most realistic simulators I've ever flown. Scenery both internal and external again some of the best if not the best. I was fortunate enough to fly the V-22 sim at Pax river back in the eighties and now Im thinking how antiquated that was compared to this! You have my vote for a Job well done and yes consider me a loyal customer. Congo

yes I have all the service packs and latest Nvidia drivers. OS is XP32

Ch Products Flightstick pro which worked fine when the sim was running. Its when I started to map virtual joystick that the problems began and nothing but CTDs

Pentium 4 at 3.2 Gig, 3 Gig of memory PC 5400, Nvidia 9800GT with 512 of VRAM. This is the only app that has ever given me these numerous problems.

I bought this sim as a digital download about four days ago. The few short times I got it to run it was enjoyable but its stability is somewhat questionable after numerous crashes to desktop while trying to configure joystick and virtual joystick setting it has become just too frustrating. All the flipping back and forth during the loading process and now I cant even get any of the training missions or standard missions to run it just says failed to load sorry for the inconvienience. I think I will shelve this app until they patch it or do whatever. If I thought I could get a refund I would ask but I know that is unrealistic. Eagle Dynamics is going to have to do better than this to add me to their loyal customer base. If and when patches start to appear maybe Ill revisit but until then Adios Blackshark. PS just removed it from my hard drive

SDK has been removed from English release because of NaturalPoint request. Now we make agreement with NaturalPoint and we will release 3DOF version of our head tracking SDK soon. That's a start, thank you for your comment. This is definitely good news. Any idea how soon this may happen

I got it to work in 2DOF mouse emulation but it is less then ideal as you always have the yellow crosshair moving when you move your head. I sure hope DCS adds freetrack support.
