I used to play falcon at in the late 80's and loved the game. Now I'm trying to get up to speed on Falcon4 AF. I realize its a long learning curve. The one question I can't find an answer to from lead-pursuit is whether you can use more than one game controller.

I have a Saitek x52 HOTAS and CH products rudder pedals for my FSX setup. It seems that under Setup in F4 AF you only have the choice of one controller for all flight controls. Is it possible to have 2 controllers?

Also, what is the difference between AF and OpenFalcon?

thanks!

I run a Thrustmaster HOTAS and a CH Pedal, check for a drop down menu in the settings for rudder.

AF is more stable specially as a Multiplayer platform - last one released by LP.

AFAIK, Open Falcon is Open source and lots of groups exist out there who have modded it to bewidering lengths. Though I'm told its nt as stable on multiplayer as AF.

My two cents worth.

OK, problem was I had not applied the latest Lead Pursuit patch. It now supports multiple game controllers.

thanks!

A note on Open Falcon [Link pending approval]: more complex and better grafix than AF.
The website is here, check it out.
