I am not having his exact issue, but am having joystick detection issues since 1.1. Related?
From my post #346
I have 6 game controllers installed. Everything was working fine prior to 1.1 patch.
I have:
Thrustmaster T1600M (used for Battlefield 4).
Cougar MFD (two of them, used for DCS A10C flight sim).
CH Pro throttle (used for ED).
CH Fighterstick (used for ED).
Saitek Pro rudder pedals (used for ED).
The controllers I was using for ED were working fine.
Now, after 1.1 patch, only the Thrustmaster T1600M and CH Pro throttle are detected by the game.
I saw in the patch notes:
"Allowed supplemental devices to be used. They count as PCPads (for example independent throttles, custom control panels)".
Perhaps this limits us to two controllers now? It was working before...
