  1. Any work a rounds for placing a Harrier in a parking spot, cold and dark? I know the Tarawa is still WIP and EDs new carrier operations scripting will change everything, but I was hoping there might be a way to place a flight of Harriers and SAR bird on the deck. Single player mission. Nothing fancy. Any help appreciated.
  2. My own experience with curve settings is not good. I have yet to find a curve I like. I equate setting the curve to sanding drywall, when do you stop? I can never find that sweet spot.
  3. You didn't. It's not. There's an entry on the bug tracker for keybaord commands and the like.
  4. Here's a template I use for making TARGET Script Files: Just copy and paste the above code into a new .tmc file created with TARGET Script Editor save as "anything you want.tmc" You can run it as is, but you will only get the axis. All the button and switch controls have been commented out. Skim through the Editor Basics pdf to learn how to un-comment and use the MapKey functions. Hope this helps.
  5. ambision, What module are you flying?
  6. Only experienced ill effects from VR a couple of times. Nausea, in during dog fight in War Thunder. lasted nearly an half an hour. In DCS, flew out of my chair taking a trap in F18. It felt so real.
  7. TARGET gets a bad rap in these forums. I have had my own issues from time to time, but its benefits vastly outweigh the draw backs in my opinion.
  8. Makes it possible to use all TM devices (Throttle, Stick, MFDs...) as 1 device. You can use a button or switch on one device to switch the behavior of one or all the buttons, switches, and axis on all the devices. It's really a powerful set up. There's so much you can do with it. For example, on the F18, I use the friction lever to operate the Gear UP, Gear Down, Hook Down, Hook Up, and Launch Bar Toggle. All on that little lever. I use the Trigger for Recenter VR as well as the trigger. I use it to switch the entire profile from Pilot Seat to RIO Seat when I switch seats. Works like a charm.
  9. What TARGET are you trying to run the Script Editor (SE) or the GUI? If it's the SE your talking about, pm me and I'll help you all I can.
  10. Sent a PM to Prowler111, Zeus67, CptSmiley, and =Decoy= about getting a stickied post listing the implemented/not implemented systems, but haven't gotten a reply either way. Why is this in "Resolved" if it's still WIP?
  11. LOL!
  12. Thanks, I'll be interested in their reply. In the interest of preserving my warranty, I will wait until they send me permission to do that. I do appreciate the piece of mind you provided, that it's not serious issue. Thanks.
  13. That'll teach you to be fickle with the platform.
  14. I have a loose connection where the black grip and the mounting shaft meet. Not in the mounting nut. The connection to the base fits very tight, but the play still exist in the grip. It's not severe, but my experience with these things is, they only get worse with time. The looseness is only in the back and forth direction. Not a great deal of play, but just enough to be annoying. :joystick: That is what I reported to Thrustmaster Customer Service today after an initial phone conversation. Apparently I'm the first to have this issue. Ya me! Thought I'd put this here in case others experience this as well. An FYI. Warranty for those of us outside the EU only have a 1 year warranty from the time of purchase. So if you have an issue don't hesitate to inform them an get it documented.
  15. Thanks
  16. My TM WH stick and throttle have always showed up in the "Devices and Printers" page as Multimedia Devices. MFDs and TPR rudder are in Devices section. I exempt TM devices from driver updates unless I initiate from a manual DL from TM site.
  17. WMR?
  18. Are you using the GUI or the SE(Script Editor)? I don't know anything about the GUI, but I can share some best practices I follow with SE. Add this to your script: Configure(&Joystick, MODE_EXCLUDED); //Needed for F18 grip to work better. or Configure(&JoystickF18, MODE_EXCLUDED); //Needed for Standard grip to work better. In Windows Device Manager, check to see that power management is not checked for usb devices / root hubs In Windows Device Manager, check to see that power management is not checked for HID devices Unplug stick when not in use. Seems to work fine after plugging in As for losing the bindings in DCS. I don't know. My DCS setting page has a column for "Thrustmaster Combined", that is the TARGET Virtual Controller, combining all your TM products present in the script. Allowing you to map DX_Buttons/Axis , not key presses, to DCS in that column. If you have mapped anything in there and hit the OK button at the bottom of the page, then it was saved. When ever your TARGET Virtual Controller is present, your bindings should be there. If you see TM Joystick, Throttle, MFD..., column headings in the DCS settings/controls page, DCS is not seeing your TARGET Virtual Controller. For what ever reason. Whatever you mapped under the TARGET Virtual Controller heading, as described above, will(or should) be there when DCS reestablishes the TARGET Virtual Controller. Add this to best practices: Never plug/unplug or run/stop SE script while the DCS settings page is open. That scenario has only worked out fewer times than the Sun has failed to rise in the East. I hope this helps. I use TARGET a lot and see the issues you describe rarely any more. It mostly reappears after Windows Update.
  19. Copy that sausage finger. What are you going to use as a controller? I use a tinsy3.6 for my controller. Use tinyduino for the programming.
  20. You could have fooled me. He went down a pretty detailed list of comparisons with accompanied conclusions offering no empirical data to support his claims. Sounded like he was trying to influence the market place to me. I may have been a little short with my immediate reply, but the triggering mechanism for me is the callus manner in witch he declared one product to be trash and the other to be Gods gift to Simmers. It may be the beginning and end of all rudder pedals, but he could have expressed his excitement without tearing the other guy down.
  21. I don't think TARGET will recognize any usb device other than what's listed in the target.tmh and I don't think you can just add usb IDs. Can I ask, what is it you want to change, or aren't happy with? What if you just disassembled the MFD and used the pcb/usb interface in your new device. Then I would imagine TARGET would just see it as a TM MFD and Bob's your uncle.
  22. I found that a little dead zone on the extremes eliminated this issue.
  23. Check Amazon.
  24. It's threads like this that make life with the woman difficult. Now I have to make a collective to go with my pedals.
