    @PAKON4 yeah, that’s what I’m figuring and curious if anyone else has experienced the same.

    Hi The problem was solved by uninstalling the SST program and driver, then letting Windows 10 reinstall a generic driver. Since then, all buttons are DX-recognized.

    @311Blade well, the monitor I use with Helios is a touchscreen, so technically I can touch the controls with my hands. I know, it’s not exactly like clicking a physical button, but the Helios profile is so refined and functional that it offers possibilities I couldn’t achieve with an ICP alone Ciao! -=CyB=-

    Ok I have done it. I amazed myself. The new buttons were auto mapped. I unticked AM and simply selected new id for it.

    @xellophane oh you may be on to something there The files are ID’d by DirectInput device id, which can sometimes change, on Windows, when moving USB plugs around… different hubs etc. Haven’t heard of this being a problem on wine, but I haven’t tested it myself

    @Mauricio-Sipmann Could be. I had heard some versions of Windows only support a single language, but I thought it was limited to WSR, not MSP. Sorry, not much help here. Let me know if you figure anything out.

    @airtex2019 Anyway, thank you very much for your contribution in the Xinput project, I’ve tried both options, the SHIFT+3 that comes with the game and the ThrottleOverlay project, and I look forward to separating the Throttle Indicator from the Xinput afterward, just like DCS.

    @Demolition said in Jetseat and HF8 haptic: @FullMetal_cooKie Hello Mate. Could you please help me get the HF8 to work with Simshaker and BMS? I purchased the sim shaker wings software and the “NLR HF8 / Realteus ForceFeel Support SimShaker Wings option” and installed them both. Which settings do i need in the HF8 software. When i play iracing i simply select that game from the HF8 game library and it runs. What do i select for BMS? Also what settings in the sim shaker software? I have done a manual start and selected the HFP option. When i click test nothing happens. My seat is connected via usb only. Does it need to be connected with audio cable too? thanks in advance! So, you don’t use the HF8 software for BMS, just the SimShaker Wings and you have to buy this per the guidance “SIMSHAKER WINGS OPTION: REALTEUS FORCEFEEL SUPPORT for 12 dollars” and install both. When I run SimShaker Wings launcher, it automatically waits for Falcon BMS, which then spawns the other plugin app, and there you can test and configure your HF8 haptic cushion. Ensure you have the cushion on and then enabled in the second app, then test to ensure it vibrates. Then you can tweak the intensity in flight to ensure it works as desired. I think the fidelity is great in BMS, at least so far. Good luck!

    @Icarus it could well just be my PDF reader being crap. I gave those a try and it’s made it much better. Currently using setting of 10 which helps well. Now also using 40 on the X and Y cursor movement too and that’s very helpful. Thanks for your help.

    @Stevie I have done that when I don’t have very good control of my sink rate. I push up the throttle to reduce the sink rate so I don’t slam into the rubway but I never thought I should or could use it as a flare maneuver. I will give it a try.

    @Alban-Tinelli It’s better not to anger your wife… I can give you a couple of easy, practical and cheap options… 1° Buy a USB Hub with an on/off switch for the desired port, or 2° buy a controller on AliExpress compatible with Windows where you can deactivate the controller’s vibration from the controller itself… I have both options, 7 euros for the hub and 20 for the controller, and that controller works better on PC than the Xbox controller itself, wired, wireless, integrated lithium battery and bluetooth… I hope I’ve helped you, regards. @Alban-Tinelli said The “set g_bVibrateXInput 0” did the job. Thanks again. Edit…Sorry, I hadn’t seen the solution, even better… even cheaper.

    @Swoopy you can define custom saturation via the g_nAxisSat* cfg params The value is a percentage, 0 to … I think 50 is the max? not sure without looking at code

    @airtex2019 said in BMS Re-Install - Is an Alternative Launcher Keymapping Restore Possible?: @Slick8791-0 that sounds fine and correct – well done! Sometimes Windows driver stack will generate new IDs and this dance has to be done It can happen, eg. when unplugging and replugging into a different USB hub Good to know! At least I don’t have to spend time scrolling and clicking key by key to set everything back up again. Thanks again everyone for the help and support!

    @airtex2019 said in Cursor Depress + Cursor Movement Issues: @SOBO-87 you maxed out the deadzone for x and y? Yep! It’s due to the force required to depress the cursor, if you’re not very careful you invariably add some x or y movement. It would be so nice to have a config option that when the cursor is depressed it ignores all X and Y inputs. But I’m guessing that doesn’t exist.

    @Dukera Get a Gameport to USB adapter. It won’t give you to 4096 resolution of a RUSBA but should get your old pedals up and running. Hit me up in Discord about the Cougar.

    @oakdesign said in HSI CRS and HDG Bug not advancing w/5deg Setting: Thanks for the insight. BTW the keyfiles and their operations have not changed regardless if you use Launcher, the Launcher in terms of keyfile just takes the task of writing them, the content of the keyfile and how the callbacks are in there is still the same Well, maybe it’s imaginary, but now I feel “like a hog lookin’ at a wristwatch”…i.e., clueless.

    Here’s another good video profiling the Moza AB9 with the F16 profile, + lots of other configurations. Realy amazing product, and I now cant live without it. Biggest advantage is how the damping/force can be adjusted on the fly, and how it feels, compared with gimbal based bases (which i’ve used for 30 years). And the bonus is the excellent haptics for aircraft/sims which support it, Including. AB, Flaps, Gear, Weapoons, Guns. Jettison stall, OverG, Engine rumble. over torque overspeed Counter measures Ground rumble, Crashs and damage. the list goes on… (for which the amplitude/intensity, and frequency can be adjusted) Would really like to see BMS support this. link text

    @DaMn said in Send the Nurse Please: @Icer I can die and go to heaven now!!! You may want to stick around a while longer, 4.38 is going to finally bring the overall graphics level into the modern age. You should give Instant Action (A-A) a try, you start out with a bunch of heavies in the air to knock down (some take 2 AIM9’s), then the “infantry” (Fighters) show up to kill you. The idea is to knock down as many enemy as you can, be as accurate as you can (guns and AIM9s give most points IIRC), conserve fuel and stay alive as long as possible… It’s my go-to to freshen up on dogfighting and just to blast planes when I have a few minutes and no time for a long Campaign mission… Hint: knock the bombers down, run away from fighters, regroup, use 120s at a distance, hit and run… or dive in and keep your head on a swivel! Your “twist-rudder” (assume that is what you have) is good, that is assigned in “AXISASSIGN” also, as you did your Throttle\Roll-Pitch of your stick, under Rudder\YAW… if you have not already done so. Maybe assign a button to turn Nose Wheel Steering on/off, same button while airborne will “step” from one (A-G or A-A, depending on mode) missile station to the next. I use NWS to taxi, then it gets turned off during takeoff ~100kts (once rudder authority occurs). Type “nws” in Filter, “STICK: NWS A/R DISC MSL STEP SWITCH” appears, assign button there… Enjoy!
