      I have a simple, older, sidewinder precision 2 joystick that worked very well in 4.32 but in 4.33 I cant get the gun trigger mapped to fire the guns.
      4.32 was mapped to WPN- Fire Gun which is not in 4.33 keystroke map. It only has STICK: First and second trigger detent which I tried with no luck.
      Any help would be appreciated.

        second trigger detent is what you want.

          You might run into the same problem I had with TARGET and the new key file. Since the author had the forward slash (/) set for both detent 1 and 2 and I had both detent 1 and 2 set as a hold till release type of command TARGET wasn’t giving the second forward slash as it already showed it being held down from the first detent. I changed the forward slash to a backward slash in the key file and in TARGET and now all is well in the gunnery world.

            Does the sidewinder precision 2 use Target? I thought was specific to the TM Warthog?

              Not that I know of Blu3wolf I am just giving and example of what his problem might be. It could be as simple as he didn’t set up second detent.

                Thanks, works now…but I cant understand why it didnt work when I mapped the second detent previously. I did have some difficulty saving the file when I set up all my custom
                mapping. No matter, its working now. 4.33 is an outstanding product!!!
