This is the GOG.com version. It acts as if the joystick is not plugged in at all. Relevant info:
Thrustmaster T.16000M
Windows XP sees the joystick in Control Panel->Game Controllers and it's fully functional and calibrate-able.
The joystick works fine in the other Wing Commanders--both the older WCs in DOSBox and the newer Wing Commander (Prophecy).
So if I start a new game of WC4, I skip past the cutscenes, get to the initial flight scene where Maniac challenges you, and enter the Options screen (Alt-O). I select Joystick, click Save and exit--no joystick. Go back into Options and Joystick is de-selected. Click the Calibrate button and nothing happens (it does not go to a calibrate screen). I also tried the keyboard shortcuts CTRL-J (enable joystick) and ALT-C (calibrate joystick). Neither work.
Does anyone have WC4 and the T16000M and can check for me if it works? I don't know if my OS is relevant (WinXP), but if you happen to have XP, a T16000M and the GOG version of WC4, I'd appreciate if you can let me know if it works for you.
Thanks for reading.
