Configure Joisticka Logitech 3d extreme pro

Post by criss20ster »

Hello. I have such a question for you. I do not know if this was a topic but can anyone have or have already set up this joistic for fs 17? Especially packs under the telescopic loaders and other and under these cranes for loading wood etc.

Generally I have so many times my mouse and I do not know how to switch to joistick

I am using 2 Logitech 3d Pro joysticks and an xbox 360 controller. You just need to remap the controls to what you want in options / controls. Example: Rotate Crane left / right : Joystick X axis; Lift Lower Crane Arm : Joystick Y axis; Extend / Contract Crane Arm : Button 1 AND Joystick X axis ... and so forth.

I just looked at your screenshot: in game options you need to enable gamepad/steering wheel and set show help icons (help window type) to automatic or gamepad.

If you set it to automatic, the help icons will show mouse icons if you move the mouse and gamepad / joystick icons when you move the joystick.

I`m sorry, the above screenshots are of no use to me because they are not in english (polish?). did you try to reset to default controls AND SAVE!?

I do not mean the default only, I mean the best way to fit the joystick key under the functionality of the game.

But is this about the settings you are referring to?

I think the best way to use this joystick is for front loader and crane use only, not very useful for walking or driving. As I said in my first post, you can set up a combination of holding a button and using an axis at the same time. I would also recommend using an xbox 360 controller for all walking, driving and tool manipulation (raise/lower, turn on/off...)
