thanks for the addition to the script. However, over the weekend I did this
//EAC
MapKeyIO(&Throttle, EACON, PULSE+L_ALT+‘m’, PULSE+L_SHIFT+‘m’, LED(&Throttle, LED_ONOFF, LED_CURRENT+LED1));MapKeyIO(&Throttle, EACOFF, PULSE+L_ALT+‘m’, PULSE+L_CTL+‘m’, LED(&Throttle, LED_ONOFF, LED_CURRENT-LED1));
and that seems to be the same language that you used. However, when I tried to compile and run it, an error message came up on line 165 or something like that. The editor doesn’t seem to have line numbers so I just assumed it was this addition. I am at work now but will try it again tonight. I am using Morphine’s script, etc. Oops. I just noticed that you added the “chain” command. Will try again tonight. That may have been my mistake.
Thanks for the help and I will let you know if it works.

I tested it here and it works, but I didn’t notice you using MapKeyIO (layered) which I did not. So I’m hoping that won’t cause an issue.

NO joy. The LED doesn’t go on and the toggle no longer controls the master arm switch in the game.
//EAC
MapKeyIO(&Throttle, EACON, CHAIN(PULSE+L_ALT+‘m’, PULSE+L_SHIFT+‘m’, LED(&Throttle, LED_ONOFF, LED_CURRENT+LED1)));
MapKeyIO(&Throttle, EACOFF, CHAIN(PULSE+L_ALT+‘m’, PULSE+L_CTL+‘m’, LED(&Throttle, LED_ONOFF, LED_CURRENT-LED1)));The CHAIN command is probably the correct command, but the I/O seems to be screwing up the actual function now. Back to the drawing board. Any help would be appreciated.

It works. I had to move the CHAIN command over to the out function and now the LED lights up when the toggle switch is moved forward and the master arm switch in the game goes up.
//EAC
MapKeyIO(&Throttle, EACON, PULSE+L_ALT+‘m’, CHAIN(PULSE+L_SHIFT+‘m’, LED(&Throttle, LED_ONOFF, LED_CURRENT+LED1)));
MapKeyIO(&Throttle, EACOFF, PULSE+L_ALT+‘m’, CHAIN(PULSE+L_CTL+‘m’, LED(&Throttle, LED_ONOFF, LED_CURRENT-LED1)))Thanks for your help and now on to do 4 more switches.

That’s great, I’m glad to hear you got it sorted!

Hi Mud,
I have a question regarding your TM Warthog profile - I cannot use the POV hat on the stick for moving my view around the cockpit….it “goes crazy” and rolls to the back-left or back-right so I’m looking at the seat. Is this because you’ve changed the POV hat to the aircraft trim in your script? (I looked at your code but cannot identify where you made that change…I can identify the other stuff on the stick in your code. I’d really like to be able to use the POV hat for cockpit viewing, at least at the moment…I’ve bitten the bullet and ordered TIR5 and the TM MFDs, all set to arrive on Tuesday…I’ve tried freetrack/facetracknoir/etc. but they don’t work for me, unfortunately). As of yet, I haven’t been able to even start her up from the ramp, which is frustrating. Any help you can provide would be much appreciated!
Thanks,

Hey Burner,
The POV is not set in the script, but in my keyfile (1st 4 lines). Changing those to the ones in the original keyfile might solve your problem until you receive your TrackIR.
Just look for the following strings in the original keyfile, and copy the entire lines replacing the one in my keyfile:
AFElevatorTrimUp
AFAileronTrimRight
AFElevatorTrimDown
AFAileronTrimLeftYou won’t regret buying that TrackIR by the way. Just be careful if you have the Trackclip Pro; that plastic boom is very fragile despite its price.

I have TIR4 on my other “civilian” flight sim PC…it works ok. I’m looking forward to getting the MFDs for this “military” sim PC, too! Those were shipped out this morning!
Another question - the back lighting on my throttle unit has remained off since running your script, even after a system shut down last night and restart this morning…can your code that turns off the lighting be commented out/disabled without causing any problems in your script?
Thanks,
Burner59 -
Yeah, it’s normal that it stays off after a reboot. To turn them on again, just change the 0 in line 238 to 50 or higher (255 being the maximum).
//Turn Off Throttle Backlight
ActKey(PULSE+KEYON+LED(&Throttle, LED_INTENSITY, 0));When you run the script then, your lights will come back on. After that you can comment out the line if you wish.
Beware though: the way I have set it up is that the light comes on when you activate the autopilot, and turns off when you deactivate the AP.
If you want to get rid of that, just comment out the 3 lines regulating the lights in the AP code (Line 446).The MFD lights are set to low intensity so they don’t blind me Their code is at line 336 (same as above: 0 = off - 255 = max)
Happy flying!

Hey Mud,
Thanks so much for your excellent profile/the coding work you did , as well as the useful tips above…everything’s working great together! (Now it’s on to learn this fantastic aircraft and simulation…lots of practice flights and reading ahead…!)

Thank you very much for you profile Mud, it seems to work very fine !! To customize it I think it will be a little hard since I am not masterizing script language but I think it’s enough to use it without any modification.

The track clip Pro is just a shame !! Mine broke after 5 days and I was very careful with it. I contacted Natural Point and my Ebay vendorbut they don’t mind about this probelm and the did nothing for replacing my Track clip Pro. So If I hav an advice, it is to just forget Track clip Pro and don’t buy it, you will loose you monney.
I found a very good alternative for TRACK CLIP Pro, The delan clip : http://www.ebay.fr/itm/DelanClip-Motion-Tracking-FaceTrackNoIR-Free-track-compatibile-with-TrackIR-/231146883099?pt=UK_PC_Video_Games_Video_Games_JS&hash=item35d16d881b
The guy is very serious and its clip is working very well with track IR (even more precise than clip Pro). Don’t hesitate.

Yeah, mine broke after about a year. But a bit of tape can work magic now and then

So it works well with the latest Track IR software? Also, looks like it might be a little on the heavy side.

Yes, it works without any problem with track IR 5 and the last software version (5.22). It is very light on the side and can be attached easily with any iron wire. It is also snet with some plastic wire to attach it to the headset.
Comapared to the Track clip pro, no doubt, it is very far away and impossible to break.

Radar Antina Tile up is not working with me i don’t lnow why… i re installed the script and still it’s not reading the key … but it’s fine without script …
any idea??

Looks like I’ll need to pick it up then. Busted my Track clip pro. Thanks for the information.

Hey Ramazoti,
Antenna tilt up is bound to F7 and tilt down is bound to F5. Do you have the keyfile loaded?
Also beware that holding up or down for half a second will re-center the antenna.Mud
