I try to keep it simple : We are not going to give up or remove the FFB. What I meant is I'm going to fix what already exists about FFB and then consider it done. Still an external view visual issue to fix.



All fixes about FFB will show in the next update.



Thanks.

Cheers for the clarification Pat.



Still dissappointing to hear, hopefully the next module will have FFB thought out from the start.



Is there not anything the FFB players might be able to do in order to help?



It strikes me that VR is getting more popular and FFB steering wheels are around plenty for racing sim enthusiasts

Does it not make more sense that the time is nigh for the ffb joystick to rise again and to continue developing FFB support rather than not?



There's plenty of folk around here who have not only bought your module but trawled e-bay and otherwise to buy the last bastion of ffb2 sticks with which to fly it with because of just how good it is. Both your helicopter and the experience of ffb in it and other modules.



Surely there's some stock in being that good? You have catalyzed many a player to experience ffb and the prospect of going back is horrifying, certainly a situation to take full advantage of and not shy away from don't you think?



Personally I'd say go big, check out community interest and look into some collaboration with VKB or Thrustmaster et al to bring a modern FFB stick to market and ride that wave of hype.

The passion and interest is certainly out there (even if some of it doesn't quite voice itself in a constructive way)



Most importantly you could call it The "Poly Chopstick"



Seriously though, folk will spend hundreds on a Warthog, but a new FFB stick? No contest, I know there's many others who would agree.



So, where's the kickstarter where we can fund you for continued FFB support?
