PageDn, PageUp … keys work with the english layout.

Is there a new actual DL Link to geht the latest Version?
-
Hi Ronald,
long time no see. Hope, you’re fine…Not yet. I am working on an update but due to my move to a new house i’m delayed. Don’t know
how much time I will need to finish it, 'cause the next Buchenau LAN has to be prepared as well.
So the latest version is still in your BMS install folder -> User / Joystick / Generic / KolbeRegards
-
Hi Marco, sure, I am fine… looking Forward to Buchenau
What are you making new? I actual work out my cockpit-Software and everyone told me not to write the hole file new at one, they told me to take your key file becuase every Thing is in there, not the toggle commands, but all the direct commands.
I read that it should be in the Doc-Folder but I was not able to find it. I have no Generic, and also in Cougar just 3 directories… nothing from you. And this at all 3 BMS installations
Would it be possible for you to send it at ze_534en at Hotmail.com?
Greetings
-
Kuhprah, are you using the update 4 for BMS?
-
Blu3wolf is right. U4 has to be installed to see that folder.
I’ll send you my newest files asap. -
Hi Kolbe,
Good luck and congratulations with your new house. Gives always a lot of work ;-(
I have 1 question about your latest keyfile (Full version).
You have mapped the F1 key to```
F1 Radio:IVC broadcast UI & 3Dand the F2 key to``` F2 Radio: IVC 2DComms (Only Ui)
However on your PDF keyboard layout (US-int) the F1 and F2 keys are assigned to ICP COM1 and ICP COM2.
Now I’m playing arround with Helios and try to make an ICP panel in cooperation with your keyfile. What is the best way to change the F1 and F2 key so I can use them for my ICP panel?
-
I use U4… but I do not have that Folder on my Win 7 fly PC; on teh WIn 8 Office PC and Win 7 Office PC… nowhere a Folder like that

I changed mine to F7 and F8, as I had the same problem you did… just make the ICP COM1 and ICP COM2 keys F7 and F8, and then set your helios panel to press F7 and F8 instead. simple.

@Kolbe
THXC:\Falcon BMS 4.32\User\Joystick\Generic\Kolbe
this folder does not exist on your PC? check the file structure carefully… if it is not there, you may need to reinstall BMS.
it should be in the install folder, then the USER folder, and then joystick\Generic\Kolbe.
-
Thanks. However I use F7 for the precision mode for my trackIR and F8 for an another program. But it is nice to know that I’m not doing something wrong.
-
oh well, as long as you use some key that is unassigned, you should be fine.
-
Ronald, as long as U4 is installed properly you should have my files in the folder mentioned above.
In this version of my key files is an issue with the F1 / F2 keys. It is already adressed in my next update.
Problem is, that BMS uses always the second key occuring in the file. My key file uses both keys twice. For ICP and as a reference to the IVC function in UI (the keys are set to SimDoNothing here).
The IVC stuff appears after the ICP stuff in the file hence BMS skips the ICP functions and “thinks” F1 & F2 is set to SimDoNothing. Hope you get what I mean.To solve this just delete the both IVC lines which are set to keys F1 & F2 and ICP should work properly again.

Hi,
since the release of U5 there is also an update of my keyfile work available. New version is 1.6.
Just take a look at Users / Joystick / Generic / Kolbe
It would be nice if someone would volunteer to help me with the Dx stuff for the Warthog.
If someone is interested, please drop me a pn. Thanks. -
so if we have 1.5 working properly, there is no need to redo for 1.6? its just fixing the COM issue?

Yes.
All I have done on the key files is listed in the changelog.
So, if you have fixed this issues yourself and you are fine with it, there is no need to use the newer files. -
