i recently installed Lo-Mac on my new computer. There are no problems with the game itself except when i try to use the throttle portion of my Saitek X45 Joystick the throttle only seems to control one of the two engines in any of the aircraft. Is there a way I can fix this severe problem? I love the game but i cannot play it while my joystick doesnt work.

Dont have an X45 myself but try this thread for X45 problem hints and tips or try this slightly more recent one.

Go into the input screen and pull up your X45. You'll see that the throttle axis is mapped to only one engine. Just select that, hit "clear", and then map the throttle axis to the one that covers both engines (can't remember exactly what its called).

BTW...do you fly a Maule IRL? That is a great aircraft.

Maybe ignore my earlier advice and check out Konny's X45 help info (link above) which I just remembered....

Ya, make sure that "thrust" is mapped to your main throttle.

please say, if this does not work.
