I tried to play Subwar 2050 in DOSBox, using a Saitek X-45 joystick/throttle. DOSBox recognizes the joystick and the throttle unit and all the buttons/hats. Also Subwar recognizes the throttle unit.

Thing is: Every time I start the game the joystick is waaaay off and I have to fight it to reach the in-game calibration. So far so good. Then: When I change the cycles in DOSBox, the joystick loses its calibration and everything goes straight to hell.

Anyone have experienced similar problems with joysticks in DOSBox? Or better still: Does anyone have a clue as to what's going on and how to fix it?

I had a similar problem with Dosbox 0.70 and Prince of Persia 2. I tried reverting back to 0.65 and everything worked fine again, as if by magic. I've run into this with a few titles since then, so it seems to be a repeatable bug (at least on my system).
