Welcome back.
Back yet again after some serious health issues.
Running Win 10 so going to try to like CFS 3 and X3. Any other suggestions that will run well on 10?
Thanks for your help guys. I got my computer parts in and assembled last night. I decided to try Windows 7 first and if it did not work I would change it to XP. It did work and I just flew a free...
Yep none of the CFS series will run on this machine no matter what I do. CFS1 comes the closet as the game will start and it sees the joystick but it will not work in missions. CFS2 and 3 will not...
I can not get CFS3 to run either. I installed the updates and the NO CD patch since I read you need it to run on Win10. Still no joy. I think I am going to order in a couple of 8 gb sticks of DDR3...
Tried it, did not work either. I think I will install CFS3 and see if I can get it to work. I never cared for it but better than nothing I guess. I just hope the update that gets rid of the fisheye...
It is a Microsoft Sidewinder Precision 2 joystick. It is working in control panel and in the game settings. It is enabled but it will not work in missions. Below is the cfg file after trying it. (I...
That is what I think too. For now I guess I need to find something that will run on Win10. I have CFS3 but never cared for it. I might look into that free combat sim and see if I like it.
Okay CFS2 will not even start on my Win10 machine. I will wait until I finish building my next rig and convert this to XP.
Yes no file, and I may end up running a separate XP machine too. I was just hoping to only need one computer cluttering up my area.
Messing with it on and off all night with no luck. The joystick shows up in the game settings and it can be calibrated, but does not work in free flight. I think I might install CFS2 tonight and see...
The problem seems to be no COMBATFS.CFG.
I am having joystick issues. It shows up and works in the game settings but I can not get it to do anything in Free Flight. Calibration is good, all the buttons work but no luck in the game itself. I...
Thanks I will look into the patch, but I may have to buy a new joystick since I am not sure mine still works. We had a foster pup in being trained as an assist dog and she decided it was a chew toy.
I was asking about 1 or 2. I do not have much interest in 3.
I have been away from CFS for years and I am just getting ready to try it again. Will CFS install and run on a Win 10 PC?

Thank you, thank you.
For my next trick watch me pull a rabbit out of my ummm, ohhh hat.
So far I like Windows 7. Not a real improvement over XP but it is OK.
I use Open Office on some computers and if you are use to MS it is not bad. For most things including our work computers I use...
We had a record snowfall here. 14.1 inches in OKC, the most snow ever on record. Busted all snowfall records and I am sick of shoveling it. For those that do not understand 14 inches being something,...
Not to worry, I would never shoot someone just for ticking me off.
Inanimate objects on the other hand, well lets just some things blowed up real good when hit by the right bullet. :tgun2:

OK I got it!!! I googled TAGES Drivers and found an installer that cleared up the whole problem. Downloaded the update and getting ready to install it now.
Marlin I am a shooter, reloader, and...
My happy place is starting to be forgetting my 357s and going straight for the 44 mag. :D
I tried what you suggested first and it keeps telling me it needs to install TAGES drivers but has to be...
That is I can get the freaking game to start. Trying to use Windows 7 and X3 seemed to install just fine, but when I go to start the game it says I need to be logged on as admin. I am logged on as...
Well I just unwrapped X3 and am going to install in a minute, after I read the beginner thread here of course. Going to see if my old Sidewinder Precision 2 will work for me.
