I think the Hornet series was a great balance from a realism, systems, and game-play perspective (similar to Flaming Cliffs 3, I guess, but with carrier ops!!!).
However, I think it would be hard to get past the graphics and lack of a Track IR capable 3D pit at this point.

It works fine with throttle and rudder.
is this the same game as fa18 korea? last time I tried, it won't detect my throttle. how do you do it? how do you make the game recognize your controller?

I use Thrustmaster T Flight HOTAS X. There's one thing to note. The HOTAS I use have 2 modes - 4 axis and 5 axis. It has 2 axis for stick, 1 axis for throttle and 2 axis for rudder - stick twist or rocker switch on throttle. In 4 axis mode the twist axis is not used and you can lock the axis with a screw. And here's the thing - in 4 axis mode the throttle wont work, but when you switch to 5 axis mode you will notice that the throttle works but is assigned to rocker button and the rudder to twist axis on the stick IIRC. So I had to remap the axis so that I had throttle on the throttle axis and rudder on the rocker switch. The remapping on this joystck is made purely in hardware there is no software neccessary.

In case you guys don't know, the original developers, Graphsim, have ported it to iOS: http://www.graphsim.com/

Hi damson, thanks for the reply. I have tried my other system in the office, but it won't work too. so I have tried installed both the fa18korea and fa18PSF on both systems, both do not work. it is very odd, all has the same mouse problem. then I try to install fa18OIF. luckily this one still works. is it possible to put the missions from fa18PSF to fa18OIF ? will it work?

Thank you so much, Mark! I didn't expect such a swift answer to my request, but then again this is why I like this community so much. Now to experiment and stir the hornet's nest again! Cheers, Andro.
