Flying Joystick

Can I use Logitech Extreme 3D Pro Joystick as a handbrake in Euro Truck Simulator 2 ?

Short answer? You can assign it to a button on the stick, but you can't use the stick itself.

Why not? I would assume the game supports pedals and wheels. The wheels universally use a joystick X axis for controll, and most pedals use the Z axis, as do most stick based throttles...

If the game supports wheels/pedals, unless the support is device specific (rare for a dev to do that) then there *should* be mo reason he cannot bind one of the axis to a controll...

As someone who used to use a Guitar Hero controller for Xbox 360 as a handbrake/jake using the whammy bar, and plays with a friend that uses a flight stick as a hand brake, you can use practically any controller with an axis or button.

Keep in mind, you can edit the controls.sii file to make a button use an axis control(for example, the "handbrake" is a knob you push/pull) but it won't work exactly as you intend. Trucks do not have a handbrake per se.
