Hello,

So, it took me the entire day to troubleshoot this and find a solution on my own. Posting the procedure for future reference:

1. Download latest drivers;
2. Unplug hardware (HOTAS & rudder pedals);
3. Uninstall all related software (drivers & SST);
4. Delete all related folders (@ Program Files, Temp);
5. Delete all related registry entries @ HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaProperties\PrivateProperties\DirectInput (labelled “SAITEK” and those beginning with “VID_06A3”);
6. Reboot;
7. Reinstall software (make sure not to plug any hardware until the installer prompts you to!).

Now, both rotaries work as expected

Greetings! It’s been a while!

I have finished installing and configuring BMS 4.36 (a huge shout-out to the entire BMS team for making it happen) and the only thing keeping me from getting back in the cockpit and firing up a campaign is… I can’t make my rotaries work like they’re supposed to

I’m currently using chihirobelmo’s outstanding Alternative Launcher, which has pretty much killed every remaining issue with my X52 HOTAS (awesome!). However, I am still unable to use my throttle rotaries to properly control antenna elevation and the range knob like I used to.

I can assign them both as axes without a hitch. However, their full range of motion is not recognised. Consequently, antenna elevation can only be set in-game to fully tilted up, fully tilted down or centred. The range knob won’t even acknowledge the detent and will only go from fully clockwise to fully counterclockwise and vice versa (no value in between).

At first, I thought it could be a problem related to the Launcher, but it turns out I can’t get any other result even with the sim’s default config menu.

Both rotaries work fine through their entire ranges of motion when tested, though. So I know the problem is not hardware-related.

Any ideas?

Many thanks in advance!

On the GR.4, only the starboard (right) gun remains.

GR.4A (recce variant) has no guns at all.

@dema:

The starboard TIRSS side-looking window should be removed, as it would make it a GR.4A.

On the recce variant, TIRRS windows are present on both sides of the forward fuselage (plus an additional IR line scanner mounted on a fairing aft of the nose wheel well) and, since the system occupies the space where the starboard 27mm cannon would normally go, the gun port would need to be deleted as well (on the opposite side, it is already gone in the standard GR.4 to make room for the chin-mounted FLIR electronics).

Also, if we’re talking about the Telic context_,_ I believe the overall colour scheme should be a tad lighter (BS 381C/626, a.k.a ‘Barley Grey’).

Other than that, the skin is amazing and I love it

@molnibalage:

Is this JanHas F-16?

Correct.

And a slightly more weathered (“aperrao”) version for the 2nd slot:

@ccc1tw:

yes the Peru mod needs more help!

I think I’ve done my part - reviving Twister’s mod for the community. ALL thanks to magic Eddropper.
the following work will be… better skins/models, data checking/realism edits, more campaigns/fine-tuning campaign, terrain tile work/new terrain? etc. This part will count on the community contribution.

@eddropper:

I got to pm Chris and coordinate ideas about janhas . I have a feeling there will be some nice looking local vipers in Peru theater soon.

@ccc1tw:

peru needs Luke’s new MB339… check nordic polar vortex mod.

let’s replace old low polys!

Yes!!! Let’s get this done!
