      Hi all! I’ve been playing both WC3 and WC4 very nicely on retropie (even with the multiple CDs). The problem I’m running into is that when using a keyboard or Gamepad and flying there is either turning or not turning. There is not a smooth transition like in the old days when I used a flight joystick in DOS.

      I picked up a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro from Staples. Even though retropie sees the button presses as buttons it does not recognize the stick movement. (This is not a support question for his joystick.)

      Anyway, my question is: What flight joystick have you used and would recommend to use in this light?

      Thank in advance!!

        @likethereindeer i use a Dualshock 3 and have activated the left analog stick in retroarch.
        Works great for me.
        I had Wind Commander III on my 3DO back in 1995 and loved this game even with pure digital joypads.
        So the analog input now on my Raspberry is a great improvment for my personal experience 😊
