MechWarrior 3 and Force Feedback Joystick

Recommended Posts

I just installed my MS Sidewinder Pro Force Feedback Joystick. The force feedback works with MS Flightsimulator 2000, but not with MechWarrior 3.

 

Anyone else run into this problem? If yes, were they able to find a solution?

 

I installed everything last evening and have not yet installed the MechWarrior 3 patch ( I suspect it won't solve this problem).

The guy from Microsoft said not to install the softwere that comes with the joystick instead use the Win2K set up for it then it will work fine.

Actually found that if I run the game as Administrator, the force feedback will work.

 

I've also found that MS Flight Simulator 2000 will only work if I run it as Administrator.

 

Anyone have any idea why this is so and if it's something I have to live with, are there any issues with running the games with admin priv.?
