Huckle Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 Reinstalled BS2 a week ago, and I've noticed that the force feedback is now becoming unreliable - it will work for one or two missions, and then just stop as soon as a new mission is loaded. Has anyone else had this problem with MSFFB2? I've tried two of them, same issue.
PeterP Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) Hi, are you alt-tabbing out often and/or having the sim windowed and jump between the sim and desktop? If yes: Just try to keep it to a minimum, so the dirextX FFB plug-in will not lost focus to your controller. I have also a MSFFB2 in use and having it happen very rarely after I alt-tab out.

Huckle Posted July 10, 2012 Author Posted July 10, 2012 Cheers, no I'm not running windowed, and wouldn't normally alt-tab out. I think the Windows install is corrupted, it's a restored image file and I've remembered it gave an indecipherable controller-related error message when I restored it. I'm trying another image file with RoF on it, stick is working fine, so will need to do a fresh install of Win and BS at some point - a new patch has just come out, so timely.
grimnir Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Bump! I realize this is an old thread, but I also have this problem with my MSFFB2. It seems to have something to do with the way missions are loading in a new window. I also loose my FFB if I alt-tab out to windows.
