Cougar-DX-Keyfile
-
Good morning,
I have a problem with the Cougar DX keyfile.
If I press pinky & paddle (should be eject) I hear the sound that you can hear even with the short pressing of CTRL + E,
but the ejection seat does not eject. I suspect that the keyfile only sends a short signal.
Unfortunately I do not know what I have to do to send a “trigger-hold”.Regards

Is your ejection seat armed? If it is then just hold S3 & S4 in until you eject.

Hi Martin,
you have to press both buttons longer than 1 sec. to trigger the ejection sequence.
You also have to keep an eye on the correct press / release order:1. press and hold pinky
2. press paddle and hold >1 sec.
3. release paddle
4. release pinky -
Is your ejection seat armed? If it is then just hold S3 & S4 in until you eject.
Yes, it was armed an I held the Buttons down
1. press and hold pinky did so
2. press paddle and hold >1 sec. did so
3. release paddle did so
4. release pinky did soI’m not alone with that issue. Maybe the “Dunk_DX.tmj” is the Problem: the paddle is mapped as “k”-key…

I’ll have a look later today but from top of my head they worked fine in the development process (which was roughly 18 months ago).

Ok,
I had a look at the files.
Pinky & Paddle is not Eject but Wheelbrakes.
Eject is on TG2. -
I’m confused
I tripple-checked the keyfiles and tried it in game. If I use pinky&TG2, the sim will toggle between the views 2&3
If I use pinky&paddle I hear the ejection-handle-sound. But no eject…Here is the entry in my keyfile:
# TG2
SimEject 261 -1 -2 0 0x0 -1261 is DX 5 (TG2) + shift (256). It should work…but it does not
SimAPOverride 259 -1 -2 0 0x0 117
this is the entry for paddle&pinkyNothing happens except the ejection-handle-sound

I tested a bit and did the following:
I have copied the following entry from the BMS 4.33-keyfile and pasted it into the 4.34-keyfile:SimEject 259 8 -2 0 0x0 117 (259 is the shifted paddle switch)
I commented out the entry SimAPOverride 259 8 -2 0 0x0 117 and did the same with the entry SimEject 261 -1 -2 0 0x0 -1.
Now eject works with Pinky + Paddle. I suspect it’s related to the .tmj file …:
BTN TG1 /I /T 2D_Cockpit /T 3D_Cockpit /O /H {DX1 X1} BTN TG2 ^ DEF X2 TG2 AND X1 BTN X2 /H DX6

OK,
I haven’t touched Foxy scripts in eons but I think you are right here.Just change the code as follows:
Rem # Cougar_DX.tmj, version 2019-02-01
Rem # To be used together with Cougar_DXt.tmm and the BMS - Basic TM Cougar_DX.key file!
Rem # For more info see Device Setup Guide.pdf.USE MDEF Cougar_DX.tmm
USE ZERO_MOUSE
DISABLE MOUSE
USE ALL_DIRECTX_BUTTONSBTN TG1 /I /T 2D_Cockpit /T 3D_Cockpit
/O /H DX1BTN S4 /H {DX4 Wheelbrakes}
LBRK 5 2 (0 10 100) ^ (/H Wheelbrakes)
RBRK 5 2 (0 10 100) ^ (/H Wheelbrakes)Will address this for U1.
