    I believe that SDL 1.3 is the next major version of SDL that is in the works right now. Different licensing and whatnot. I'm assuming that there will be lots of changes applied to it.

    SDL 1.2 definitely does not have force feedback support.
    For SDL 1.3/2.0 which is still in development, the developers are doing something along the lines of cross-platform force feedback support, but last time I checked (which was a while ago to be honest) it wasn't advanced and not fully usable.

    The official site has v1.2.15 for download and a lot of other libraries, but nothing about v1.3.

    As I said above, there's no newer libraries to download (or at least I didn't found them), neither pascal headers other than jedi-sdl 1.0 (again I didn't found them, even freepascal points to jedi).

    If any of you know about other headers, please share them. For now the force feedback feature will stay out of the project.
