Hello,
I posted a few weeks ago having trouble with the initial setup on my Thrustmaster T16000M and TWCS throttle. I mostly figured out the stuff I was stuck on, and was off and running for a bit. Now having some inexplicably weird behavior: some of my buttons don’t do anything in the cockpit, even though they are properly set up to do so (in TARGET).
Specifically, I have a joystick button for MSL Step/NWS. Mainly to switch from CCRP to CCIP without reaching for the mouse. The BMS UI (outside cockpit, on the control config screen) recognizes this - when I press that button, it displays that MSL Step was entered, on the control config UI. But in the cockpit it does nothing. Similarly, my DMS down does not switch the SOI like it’s supposed to. The control UI sees it, but in the cockpit, it causes the sim to emit a click/pop sound, but does nothing else. If I press the keyboard command for that function, it works (the Thrustmaster button is programmed to simulate that same key press).
A possibly related issue I haven’t been able to solve is that I can’t get the gun trigger to work right. If I set the TARGET software for it to mimic a ‘press,’ it fires a momentary burst for each trigger pull of any length, but if I set it to ‘hold,’ tapping the trigger fires continuously until ammo is gone.
Is the TARGET software just glitchy and weird, or am I doing something wrong? Would really appreciate any help with this.
