OMRON part numbers

Trigger: B3M-6009. http://www.omron.com/ecb/products/pdf/en-b3m.pdf

Buttons 2/3/4: B3FS-1002. http://www.components.omron.com/components/web/pdflib.nsf/0/7A04F73D25AF4A8785257201007DD542/$file/B3FS_1110.pdf

They are less than $1 per button. The problem you will run into is finding a distributer that will sell them in a small quantity, like 5-10. I don't need a 100-button bag.

Is there any way to make the sidewinder software work on Win 7 X64 now?

Wow - I've been using these sticks for a dozen years and I completely forgot they originally came with software. Do you need something the software does? If so, what's that? I haven't ever used the software.

The software enables you to adjust return-to-center tension and feedback forces.

You can do this with FEdit (Force Feedback (efects) Editor) - include in MS DirectX 8.1 SDK - download here:

If need map butons (of game GUI) use JoyToKey, SVMapper, XPadder...

I've tried FEDIT several times over the last years. But I failed to save any changes I made to the .ff files.

If you meant that Fedit did not save the changes into the .ffe - then check if you've got the right version (right click on the file, properties, version tab): There's one going around with version "1.0.0.1" which in fact does not save properly and another with Version "5.4.0.2904" which does work correctly.

Thanks for the info. I've spent 1 hour looking for the correct version on the web but failed. Could you please upload a copy to the forum?
