Ok, I've just bought a Logitech extreme 3D pro and I cant get the thing to work, when I take off it auto moves me where ever it wants. It doesn't let me change views now either. If anyone out there has the same joystick can they please take a screen shot of there controls for in a jet and heli. Please.

I seem to remember a friend of mine buying one of these and having to download new drivers from the logitech website.

Worth a try.

When you installed the drivers and software , did you have to do stuff like moving the joystick in a complete circle and stuff like that?
Also make sure logitech profiler is running and setup your deadzones and stuff it a take ab it of fiddling but it important.

Yeah, I think I may have messed it up though, I didn't realize that actually did anything so I just messed about.

On the Control Panel dude - select Game Controllers - calibrate it there

Shouldn't have to uninstall it at all.

Thanks coke.

You did state 'I don't think...'  which indicates to me that you might not have tried.

Not interested in a flame war here.  Just wanted to help Doggespike.  That's all.

I also said you cant with my force 3D, I said think because he only has the extreme version that was why I wasnt sure, there problem solved. I dont know why you can't calibrate through control panel or anything I've had a look and the only way you seem to be able to do it is with the drivers disk, bit silly but there you go.

I'm going to revive a really old topic here, but;

what does dead zones mean?

I've set up my profiler but haven't touched the dead zones cuz I really have no clue what that means

I'm guessing it's the area when your joystick is sat central. You adjust your dead-zones so that when you aren't touching the joystick it doesn't erroneously report any kind of movement which would result in drift within the game.

There is a guide on adjusting them here.
