But once I get in the game, none of the hat switch functions on the Thrustmaster will work. When pressing Control-F1 and setting up the Thrustmaster in DosBox, everything seems to go ok, just like setting up the Extreme 3D Pro. As much as I have tried, I cannot make the hat switch on the Thrustmaster function while playing in-game. I was able to get everything mapped with the Extreme 3D Pro, and I would have gone with that joystick if not for the dead zone/accuracy issues. However, it seems that I cannot get the hat switch programmed on the Thrustmaster. The Logitech joystick just has a larger dead spot and more play in the center and the difference while playing WC1 is very noticible to me. Without a doubt, the Thrustmaster is better as far as accuracy of the stick goes. I purchased both a Thrustmaster T16000M and a Logitech Extreme 3d Pro and have played them both with Wing Commander 1, GOG version. I've learned about and played around with DosBox in the last few days and have somewhat figured out the mapper.map program to make keyboard/joystick configurations.and here is my issue. I am trying to figure out as much as I can on my own regarding the WC games I have purchased on GOG. As someone who played Wing Commander when it first came out almost 25 years ago, I was thrilled when I received an email from GOG saying that the games had been re-released, and just as thrilled when I found this site and discovered that there is an active and vibrant community dedicated to these games that, in my opinion, are as to computer games what Star Wars is to movies.
