yes helios works fine, I just used my BS1 export.lua I'm sure there will be differences and a newer one will be made by gadroc, but for now it seems fine.

Hi, Just went looking for the keymap document and its missing from my docs folder. I've noticed some keymappings are different from default BS1 and need to fix my helios profile. Any chance of a pdf or spreadsheet with all keymapping at some point? thanks

I've got same problem but also lots of my buttons dont work. I use SST profile to map the default keystrokes and in controls when I press the button it shows correct assignment but they dont work in the game. edit: full uninstall - delete all user files and re-install fixed it up.

Got BS2 installed this morning. Pretty painless after installing V1.0 temporarily. I copied over a couple of configs to new BS2, headtracker etc.. no more then 5 minutes changing settings. what can I say but WOW! Freetrack works, sticks all work, helios works.. multiscreen works! Love the instant action menu, cockpit shadows, looks awesome. Cant wait to spend time on this now! Thanks ED, a pleasant surprise!

I read that the name of them has changed to look here. I'm sure one of the default screen scripts has it detailed.

thanks.. my initial excitement from purchase has now cooled off and waiting 2 days for 4gig to download has got me not wanting to think of downloading to many more fixes... to subsequently spend many hours to get BS2 working with all my shit! :)

wow.. could ED make it any harder? when can we expect a "fixed" patch installer so that everyone who has 1.02 doesnt have to jump through all these hoops to install the new game?

Hi, Thought I'd get in early while my 4gig patch downloads over a few days. What is the go to get Freetrack working with BS2? Given all the talk about this being AC10 engine I guess that the dll from that should work? thanks.

I'd say its Indicated Air Speed and Distance in meters.

I've got a mini LFE on the way for my seat, just wonder if the full LFE would be to much for a single seat? Also, should I mount the seat on rubber feet to isolate it more from the floor so the buttkicker can do its job? cheers ps: that real seat looks so uncomfortable! wow

just setup some custom snapviews. I dont think you can use both mouse+trackIR. its either one or the other.

ha yeah, not my first choice... I'd probly be happy to look at something like this as a texture... could be very distracting during combat tho!

hi rome57, where are you located? Definately interested if shipping isnt a hassle.

I seem to remember seeing the uniform textures in amoungst all the cockpit textures in the CDDS. Didnt pay much attention to them as I was ripping panel textures for helios.

ughh.. if only I could get these shipped to Australia.. cheapest here is over $600!

I'll add my experiences FWIW Have tried out facetrackIR and freetrack both using the Wii remote and PS3Eye with my homemade 3 point hat and a trackIR model. The wii remote worked but was alot of mucking around to start it, needs batteries etcetc. to hard. The ps3Eye needs the IR filter removed and a piece of floppy disk inserted to work properly. This is not easy and you could potentionally destroy the camera! However, the Eye is awesome, 120FPS no problems, but I run it at 60. The software is a no brainer, Freetrack. Facetrack is a great idea but really doesnt work well enough. If money wasnt an issue I wouldnt hesitate to get the TrackIR. Otherwise the PS3eye + freetrack + homemade cap is the go (cost about $40).

wow, that is dedication! lovely work! you could easily start a cottage industry producing those for customers on demand!

Hi, I've been very inspired to finally get something more "pitish" happening from all the amazing project going on here on the forum (thanks!) So here is my ghetto pit. Made from things laying about and definately a work in progress. I plan to move onto something better over time and this is testing the waters. Consists of 24"+23" screens. Homemade trackIR using ps3 Eye, car seat, old bookshelf for seat mount, LCD wall mount. Sticks and rudder, Belkin n50. Ive found the desk is way to wide and needs cutting in half as there is alot of wasted space. Also going to add a buttkicker to compliment the audio system. Has been a hit with the kids and it really makes playing more immersive and fun. As a bonus it still is very useable for day-to-day FPS and browsing, which was my main concern. Any suggestions and comments welcome. Cheers spike

Great work! good to know its been tested for bugs before getting it made! look forward to updated files. thanks

Gene, I'm envious of users close to take advantage of the offer! Cheapest I can get here is $200 per sheet + materials! so close to $1000 :(

I experienced similar issues when I did that mission a few weeks ago. Took me quite a few tries to finish that one! The key I found is not to loiter to long and get stuck into the targets in the failing light! I adjust the contrast in the shk to see better and once you have a few things on fire its alot easier to lock on them. Also, I keep my wingman busy engaging targets to assist! Landing in the dark is pretty nerve racking on that one to! good luck :)

ok great. Its been happening nearly every mission so I will save a track next time. Its not a showstopper, but it gets you going when your only 50m off the deck and it gets loose on you!

digging up a really old one here.. Any thoughts on this issue where the damping turns itself off randomly? It seems to always do it to me when I've got my head buried in the shkval shooting targets then the 3 buttons start flashing and the heli goes out of control. Usually got autohover engaged also.. Is this a realistic "failure" in the missions or a bug?? cheers

I know the feeling! A big part of the fun is learning all the systems and feeling good when it all comes together.. sure, its not easy but I cant imagine the game being as rewarding if I was shown everything.. Get on youtube and checkout the producers notes, that will get you going in the right direction! cheers

I've got 2 screen setup 1up + 1down (helios) and the in game menus are positioned 1/2 on each screen. Is there a way to edit the placement of the menus to fix this? I've searched and only turn up AC10 related posts. Also, I was running screens side by side but the subtitles spanned across the screen and made it unreadable. Was a pain as I dont speak russian to understand what they are talking about.. Can the subtitles be moved to the left? thanks.
