also anyone know how to have right click on the mouse to move the camera inside?

ok I got it working lol after some trial and error. I had to “download” the profile for it to work and I had to unselect the POV button on both flight stick and throttle then set it to DX Mode. I notice that once I hit the download button both my throttle and stick lock up and become unresponsive. Not sure if running it in admin will help but im doing so for now, for the POV the rotate up down left right…ect dont seem to be working but all my keys on my hotas are. any help would be helpful

update: I think the pro manager is a dead stick or something with windows is making it mess up. dont know if I should roll back on a later version of it to see if it will work. I run it without the manager and it works fine only thing is that my second POV on the hand throttle will not work nor do i think i can change it. I like the CH product just wish I could figure this out. =/

ok so I got ahold of CH products and told me to remove the pro manager and use the windows 10 calibration. which I did. I still have issues with the POV inside the sim. while im inside the cockpit I cant move my mouse by right clicking tho when I press 0 to go external I can use the mouse to look around /shrug. not a clue on how I can go forward with this. I will keep trying to figure this out.

Hi,
Read this thread, maybe you solve this problem!
Beware, with the New Windows 10 1909 Update!
When windows 10, updates always comes up some kind of incompatibility!

I use the alt launcher for my bindings. BMS only recognizes the hat switch on the joystick and not the throttle from what I understand. I don’t use CH manager, had too many problems with it and windows 10.
Work around for the hat switch on the throttle is to use joystick gremlin and vjoy to create a third device that is the hat switch on the throttle and assign dx values to that hat switch. There is a guide on the joystick gremlin website for how to set it up -
Hello, 84hd79!
As I understand in your post, you have solved this issue, please could post the link containing guide on the gremlin joystick website on how to configure it, and how to use the gremlin joystick.
That would be useful for other people with the same problem!
Thank you !

Okay, here goes:
The site to download the joystick gremlin program is https://whitemagic.github.io/JoystickGremlin/overview/
You will also need the vJoy program, the link for that program is referenced in the link above.
Once you install the vJoy program, locate the vJoy Configuration Utility and follow the steps outlined in the above link to setup the virtual device that will be used for the HAT on the throttle. My configuration below:
Next you will open the Joystick Gremlin utility.
It will show all of your connected input peripherals. Find the tab for your throttle, “CH Pro Throttle USB” in my case. Using the scroll bar on the left, scroll down until you find a grey button labeled HAT and click on that.
Click on the right dropdown and select “BASIC” then click Add. You will see 4 white boxes called “North”, “South”, “East”, and “West” On each of the boxes, select the Remap button and it will add a grey box. Leave the default “vJoy device 1” and select a button number for each. I used button 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively.
Once finished with these steps, save your profile using the “save as” option.
Then click on the controller icon to activate this profile. You will want to do this everytime before you enter the game.
Next you will go into the Alt Launcher to controller setup. Click each one of the POV directions (up, down, left and right) for the throttle HAT switch and clear any DX bindings that might already be in there.
Then find what action you want to assign to each POV, and when you assign it, it should show a new binding. In may case, “Joy 1 DX 3” You will also see a new device listed, “vJoy Device”
I hope this helps.
When you launch the game, your new bindings should now work.

Run Joy to Key as administrator. Simple, works for me.

Cool, it’s great to have options when stuff stops working
