I have downloaded this and tried it, and I admit I am intrigued. However, I
have not found any marked improvements. If anything, the feedback is a
little gentler. Also, I find that with my Cessna Realair 172 the flight
characteristics have been lost. It no longer spins which was one of its best
attributes. Did you find any of this in your tests?


Sorry, I usually don't fly the small stuff but when I cranked the
feedback up on one profile I damn near broke my wrist with
FS Force! :-)

What were the main advantages again?


On my MS Force Feedback2 running Win2000Pro I get back all the subtle
stuff missing under FS9. I like to tweak my own aircraft profiles. I
like the gear thumps. I like the adjustable landing feedback forces.
I like the adjustable braking force. Rather than MS's Hard-Medium-Soft
settings I have damn near infinite control and not just the force
itself but what speeds they come in at or fade out at.
Adjustable trim forces. MS told me via e:mail they had removed the
self center function in FS9. Well I have it back now and it's
completely adjustable!

I've flown FS2000, FS2002 and now FS2004.....I have never had
a joystick work like my FF2 is working now!
