i may be missing something here or mabe it's supposed to be this way. i've been using both a joystick and a mouse with jtl to determine which i like better. with the mouse i have 2 rectile's , the green crosshairs for aiming my weapon's and a smaller blue rectile for fine aiming.when i use the joystick i only have the green crosshair's, the smaller fine aiming rectile is missing. also i am using an H-wing which has the ability to have 2 weapons. for instance i can load both an ion cannon and a blaster but can only fire one of the weapons,so far i hav'nt figured out how to fire the second weapon. is there a way to switch from one weapon to another.

First off I don't know what an H-Wing is. I assume you mean Y-Wing. If this is the first Y-Wing (nto the Longprobe) then the second weapon is reserved for your gunner. To get a gunner you have to group with a friend that is near the starship terminal and launch into space. He will be in the back manning your second gun.
If that is not the case then hit "g" to assign weapon groups. You select a weapon group (1-9) and put the weapons you want to fire in the far right column. This is your Assigned Weapon List. You can do this with other weapon groups for when you have more weapons to form cominations. You will want to look at your keymap (Options>>> Controls>>> Keymap) to find out how to fire/switch the weapon groups.
I don't know why there is no fine aiming reticle for the joysick. I don't use joysticks much outside of JTL and am not a huge flightsim guro. I don't have it either.
I hope this helped!
