Great find, Pontius. Thanks for that.

My previous post was deleted as I got the Rudder pedals working fine with the Thrustmaster Device Analazyer, I was unable to use it since Windows 10 is limited on the axis translation it seems. So we are stuck with the “separate rudder” pedal configuration noted much earlier in this post by adding // in front of the line “Configure(&TFRPRudder, MODE_EXCLUDED);” to look like this:
//Configure(&TFRPRudder, MODE_EXCLUDED);
If you want to know the previous post where I thought I had it working, I am posting it as a spoiler here.
! This works in the Thrustmaster Device Manager test, but Windows does not seem to see the extra axis
! Okay, for all of those that want to use this profile using the Thrustmaster T-Rudder, you will find it doesn’t work with the default MUD profile. If you comb through all of the replies, you will also find the work around is to disable the profile’s attempt to configure the rudder. This was fine for me for a while, so I went out trying to find the answer of how to map the T-Rudder. It seems that there really isn’t much information on the internet to do so. This had me go through and create a profile and then sift through that code this is a product of that…
! The skinny is to add the following to the MUD profile:
! 1. Make sure that your profile is setup to configure the axis of the Rudder. Make sure that you have “//” in front of your Configure Rudder line where it will look like this://Configure(&TFRPRudder, MODE_EXCLUDED);
2. Then we need to tell the program how to map the axis of the Rudder. This is when you scroll down past “// Changes to BMS - Full.key” section where you will see the “//Joystick Axis Modes”, “//Throttle Axis Setups”, ect. Somewhere in that section add the follow:
MapAxis(&TFRPRudder, TRPRIGHT, DX_XROT_AXIS, AXIS_NORMAL, MAP_ABSOLUTE); SetSCurve(&TFRPRudder, TRPRIGHT, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0); MapAxis(&TFRPRudder, TRUDDER, DX_Z_AXIS, AXIS_NORMAL, MAP_ABSOLUTE); SetSCurve(&TFRPRudder, TRUDDER, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0); MapAxis(&TFRPRudder, TRPLEFT, DX_YROT_AXIS, AXIS_NORMAL, MAP_ABSOLUTE); SetSCurve(&TFRPRudder, TRPLEFT, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0); >! ``` Save it and then run it. If you test it out you will see that you can now use your TM Warthog Joystick, Throttle, and T-Rudder pedals all as one device when running the MUD profile. Enjoy!

It should work. Are you sure you were carrying an ECM pod and that it was activated?

Hiya guys, I have the Warthogs and use Mud’s profile (great work btw) I want to get some rudder pedals, the set I have my eye on are the THRUSTMASTER TFRP Flight Rudder , are these compatible with the Warthogs AND BMS 4.33
Thanks in anticipation

I have also emailed Thrustmaster support and will report back my findings……
-
Well I got a standard “They will work with the Warthogs but we cant comment on BMS” reply from Thrustmasters tech support.
I am hopeless with scripts and haven’t touched Mud’s profile, does anyone know how I can bind the TFRP T.Flight Rudder pedals to Muds profile? I calibrated the rudders using Thrustmasters program, plugged them in but they wouldn’t steer or brake on the taxi way. Any help would be really appreciated.

185th CadetI use the Warthog and TFRP pedals also with BMS. I’m using DX assignments mostly and my own little Target profile for where DX won’t work. The TFRP pedals I have setup in windows and in BMS self of course, they are not included in the profile. Works fine for me, this way.
-
Really appreciate the reply Terminator, I’m a real newbie on BMS, used to fly F4 back in 2002 for three years then moved on, I’m also a bit of a newbie about DX assignments etc…. Am I right in thinking if I setup the rudders in windows and BMS (not sure how to do that) then they shhould work with Mud’s profile, I do use the TARGET software to run his profile? Apologies for not really understanding your advice.

Hey OldAim,
Indeed you should just set up your rudders in Windows and BMS. You may have to edit out this line in the beginning of my script: Configure(&TFRPRudder, MODE_EXCLUDED); by adding // in front of it.
My script itself you should run with the Target Script Editor, not the Target GUI.
Best regards,
Mud

Ah ha the man himself Got to say I love your profile Mud, thank you for all the hours you must have put in. I have run the rudder driver for windows and attached a piccy of whats showing in my windows devices, did I get that bit right?
In the BMS config launcher window, do I enable virtual rudder (pic attached) I’m a real novice and haven’t dared to fiddle with your profile until I feel competent enough, how do I edit the script? Do I use notepad or wordpad to find that line and just put two forward slashes in front then save the file?
Best regards

I just got brave and went to edit mode in the TARGET software, looks to me like the two forward slashes are already in front of that command line.
-
Oh and I did enable virtual rudder in the BMS configuration, tried it out quickly on a TE on taxi way but the rudders are not steering or braking As you can probably tell I havent a clue …. lol
-
Yeah, in the BMS launcher you need to leave that virtual rudder to default - so off I guess.
Check page 1, post 9 how I set up my former Saitek combat pedals in the BMS settings: https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?8844-Mud-s-Profile&p=155588&viewfull=1#post155588

Ah I was configing it in the wrong place on BMS, thanks very much for the link Mud and all your help, trying to taxi n brake using the keyboard is a mare lol
-
I went into the right BMS config as per your pic (I printed the pic out as a reference), set it all up and checked it all, working lovely…… Came out of BMS, ran your profile via Target, back into BMS and it didn’t work, with TARGET running there are only two options, keyboard and mouse, Any ideas what I have done wrong?
-
I would assume because Target adds to rudders to a virtual device. Not sure as I’ve never used those.
See what happens when you remove the // before Configure(&TFRPRudder, MODE_EXCLUDED);
