Yes. The AB are set.
I hawe this problem during the fly. This problem only with your scriptI’m still not understanding your problem. Does the blue bar go all the way to the top in the setup screen? When running the script, have you looked at the output on the device analyzer to observe the throttle response?

Dear Morphine,
First of all, thanks for scripting the WH profile for falcon. Great job. As reported earlier, most of the commands are working yet having troubles with the china hat key: can’t get the MFD modes having the range option to change. As mentioned earlier I made sure it’s SOI and all the axe are configured as per your instructions. My autopilot switch doesn’t seem to work: I get a ding sound but the sim is not reacted to it. All the rest seems to work.
Best

Fulcrum,
A couple of points.

The China Hat has been mapped to the MAN RNG Knob (the equivalent to the Range Knob on the Cougar/real F-16 Throttle). In BMS, this only controls the zoom of the TGP… It does NOT control the MFD Ranges (e.g. FCR and HSD). Page 89 of the BMS-Manual.pdf describes this although I think it’s been changed slightly to only zoom when the TGP is SOI. It doesn’t seem to control the Gain in A-G Radar modes as per the Throttle diagrams in the manual (possibly a bug?). The only way I’m aware of to control the MFD ranges is by pressing the corresponding OSB buttons or using cursor bumping.

Regarding the autopilot, you should check to see if the WH switches are moving the 2 autopilot switches in the sim. Also, keep in mind there are many times when the autopilot will not work or automatically disengage. So first make sure you can move the switch and activate the Ap using your mouse. If that works, then see if the mapped switches on the WH move the AP switches in the sim.
Hope that helps.

Hi Morphine,
Thanks for your help. Profile’s now working perfectly.
Kind regards

Hello Morphine!
I’m in the process of familiarizing & memorizing your profile. Previously I used CH products, now transitioning to the TM Warthog HOTAS. I’m having an issue trying to figure out why Autopilot Engage/Disengage button selects the LIGHTNING-Instrument Light Toggle as well as Parking Brake. How may I change this plz?
Additionally, is there a way to keep the Advanced Options settings vs. resetting them each time I enter the sim?
Thx very much!

Hello, i just started using your profile and BMS big help thanks

Morphine Hello, I wanted to ask how active profile on the vertical scan mode Dogfight.
thanks

My only guess is that you are using a .key file that assigns the LIGHTNING-Instrument Light Toggle and Parking Brake to the same keystroke. Make sure you are using the keystroke file I provided or edit the one you are using (using an external text editor) to remove the duplicate.
Additionally, is there a way to keep the Advanced Options settings vs. resetting them each time I enter the sim?
To stop that from happening you have to make sure the TARGET Script is running before starting BMS. Alternatively, some people have had success by making the axismapping.dat and joystick.cal files read only (they are located in your bms/user/config directory).

I wanted to ask how active profile on the vertical scan mode Dogfight.
First, keep in mind that the profile often does not send specific keystrokes (e.g. CRTL+F8 ) but rather provides the functionality of the various buttons, such as the TMS button, whose functions are often Mode Dependent (i.e. does something different if you are in Dogfight Mode with the ACM radar versus MRM Mode with the RWS Radar).
So to access the Vertical Scan mode (or called the 10x60 mode shown as “60” on your ACM radar) you would first have to be in Dogfight Mode by moving the Dogfight switch Forward and then move the TMS Down twice. First DMS down changes it from BORE to ACM 30x20 and second TMS Down toggles it to 10x60. Just a note that if the Radar is in Standby in the 30x20 or 10x60 scan you can move it out of Standby by TMS-Right.

Hello Morphine!
Still using your profile but I’ve made a few changes that by now I cannot remember. Also using a customized .key file. My last post was on May this year so I’m not sure if I am using the “updated” version 2 or the “original” version 2 of your profile. Anyway, with all the changes I’ve made to my setup, I am hesitant to simply throw in anything new for fear of messing things up.
However, I am now in the stage of learning about flameouts and doing flamout landings and in-air restarts. It was hilarous when Kite and I went up for a flight to test this out, and I found out that I apparently have an F-16 with an “auto-engine restart” feature. I tried turning the engine off by flicking the Master Fuel switch to off and the engine would spool down, instruments go blank, etc…. but when I flick the switch back on, the engine starts back up, even with the throttle on full/half/idle/detent position. It doesn’t matter which position the throttle is in, it’ll restart the engine. Same issue when the Engine Feed knob turned to off and doing a negative-G maneuver… it’ll shut the engine off, but once I am in a position that would feed fuel back to the engine, it starts up. Also, lifting the throttle from Off to Idle does not kill the engine.
The only time the engine did stay off was when I landed, turned it off, and waited for the RPM to decay past 20%.
Any help appreciated!
PS - I’m also hoping to change the throttle hat switch to different views, but I’m not sure what it’s called in your .tmc file… Thanks!

Morphine was kind enough to give me a call and spent almost an hour troubleshooting my .tmc file to get it to work… brilliant support! Thanks very much for the help Morphine!
Now if only there was a way to control the coffeemaker machine downstairs with a shifted-button command…

Morphine Hello, I would like to ask how to release smoke from the plane. I saw that it should be the “S” key on the keyboard marked “Smoke Toogle.”
I’ve noticed that does not work, why? -
Ctrl + S

It is the “S” key on Morphine’s .key file, not CTRL+S. Working for me.

how does one switch back to A/A mode using this profile after switching to A/G mode?
-
Um, press the AA button on the ICP? How’d you get to A/G mode in the first place? I don’t think there is a HOTAS function for that, you have to use the ICP, right?
-
if you hold the mapped shift button and press TMS up you will be in A/G mode. was just wondering if there was a key that i was missing to get back into A/A mode instead of using the ICP

Assuming you are using my keyfile (Warthog_DX.key), then what you are referring to is pressing Shift-TMS DOWN which cycles A/G Weapons (if different ones are loaded)and if you are in NAV or A/A mode will also take you directly into A/G Mode. It is not a realistic function of the TMS (none of the Shifted functions are) but is included for convenience. As mentioned by Ice in order to get back to NAV mode you would need to press the A/G button on the ICP or to get to A/A, you would need to press A/A on the ICP.

Hi There
I’m having an issue getting the CMD to work propertly. I’ve loaded the DX keys and set up everything on my new Wart Hog. At the moment the CMD switch does nothing. Did I miss a mapping?

Do you mean the CMS hat functions are not working? Can you be a bit more specific about the problem?
