I have a saitel EVO joystick.
But the problem is it does not work in game.
at the setup screen when first installing it i marked joystick to tell the game that i had one. but when in game none of the buttens work. the throttle or anything.
I looked in my control panel to calibrate the joystick and it works perfectly, but not ingame.

No your the best

I'm having the same problem with my Saitek X52. Use joystick is checked, the stick is selected in properties, calibrate works fine, but nothing in game. It works fine in other games, just not this one.

You may have other similar devices connected like pads, steering wheels and so on. I needed to disconnect all other game devices and THEN connect my joystick. Only then did the game see it properly. It never helped just clicking the desired device, because the game always chose my gamepad which was on the top of that "game controllers' list.
