Thread: Logitech Attack 3 Joystick

Have you tried the download from logitech?

link: Attack

Click on "downloads" (next to Overview), Select your OS, then choose from the available applications to set it up.

ahh yes, the microsoft version of the games thats completely crap to get working right on a windows pc.

great game but be warned, theres a fault (hopefully fixed now that the game is some 5 years old) that causes an error in one of the last missions that hangs the game every time. applying the fix means all of your gamesaves are invalid., great way of getting some extra play hours out of it.

Thanks mate,

No I haven't tried this as the internet link on the instructions (even though it state's plug and play on the box....LOL) that came with the joystick, sent me on this Profiler path.

Not a single thread I read, stated a fix outside this profiler download and then a lot of switching stuff on and off and setting up etc. This is probably cool if you are a hardcore gamer and this approach sounds like it gives you a lot of versatility, but my son isn't and it seems a bit extreme for only one game.

I'll give your link a go, maybe Logitech have got a device specific download that makes it truely 'plug & play'.

I'll let you know,

Cheers.

LOL....thanks Dave.

It's an old game that we've played heaps....well me a couple of times front to back and him, numerous times. We've never had that issue though. The beauty of PCs and those Microsoft Moments.....everybody gets a different one....hahaha.

Been waiting for MW5 but there have been all sorts of political issues aparently. I believe it's due next year (2012) and the teaser looks awesome.

have you tried MWLL oor any of the turn by turn knock offs of the original board game such as TOS or MegaMek?

Titans of steel (and elite, the original cga version) keptme sane in the solomans.

(I also suspect that I may be required to clean out the house and garage of pestilents and have a MW lan party...)

You may have to clear all the key bindings in the game setup first, then reset the commands to the joystick.

Thanks,

I do remember reading something about 'key bindings'.....but unfortunately for me that just sounded like blah, blah, blah......sorry, refer to my "not very savy" comment .

I vaguely get what that means but have no idea how to do that or if I need this bloody Logitec download, to enable that process.....

Fortunately I have a mate in the IT game who has just offered to help.....isn't savy on joysticks either but is familiar with the Logitec profiling requirements. His assesment...."Logitec make pretty good kit and it would be a shame to have to take the JS back"....so, fingers crossed.

I appreciate your help.

Kev.

Hey Dave,

Nope, never tried those games. I really enjoy playing PC/360 games but never find the time (specially lately) unless my son wants to play co-operative play on something.

I'll scope them out though. If I can get this JS working, I'd like to look at some air combat games....any recommendations?

Ah, the Solomans.....I was a FSGT at 38 when they deployed there, fortunately there were so many people trying to replicate the 'Dili Dash For Cash' (once it was obvious that there would be no shooting ), that we made it voluntary. Each to their own but I decided I had better things to do with my time..... I'm sure other units or services had no choice.

Thanks for the input.

Cheers,

Kev.
