X-WING and TIE FIGHTER joystick fix for STAR WARS™: TIE Fighter Special Edition

X-WING and TIE FIGHTER joystick fix

Overview

If you have any axis limit, drift, or any other calibration issues which only exist within XWING DOS, XWING CD or TIE DOS, and you’re at your wits end trying to calibrate your joystick, then this setting change may help you.

DOSBOX CONFIG FILE SETTINGS

Try timed=false in the joystick settings within the DOSBOX config file:
dosbox_tie.conf
dosbox_xwing.conf
dosbox_xwingcd.conf

Steam’s TIE CD version currently ships with this setting:
dosbox_tiecd.conf

You may also have some luck changing the joysticktype setting if you have trouble getting the games to recognise the joystick in the first place.
