Re: Use a USB Joystick - "FORCE FEEDBACK 2"

To create a converter would take an intimate knowlegdge of USB HID standard, microconrollers and a way to decipher the proprietary protocol used for the force feedback. Then, you are still faced with the problem of how to power it. I have the gameport version of this joystick and it uses 1.5 amps!! This is NOT the way to go. You would also have to ahve digital to analog conversion circuirty. Even if you surmount all the above obstacles you still have to figure out a way to get data to the thing to control the force feedback. Trust me. Its a bigger task than you think.
