  1. GregP: Thanks for the tip! Even though I consider it basically solved for now, it could come in handy another time (when I figure out how to combine axes...). The same thing happens here if I step on both rudder pedals, and depending on which one I let go a bit. The rule seems to be; don't do that :D As for the sensitivity (on the rudder), I found it pretty sensitive too (not that I have P-51D to compare with), so I applied a negative curve to both pedal axes, which improved things. Actually, there are something I don't get at all about that, and the axis tuning: One of the curves seemed inverted from the "Axis Tune" graph vs in-game. Granted it's on the inverted axis, but it still seems wrong. At least I find the graph confusing, also they didn't really map axis output on the graph Y axis, like the curve implies. It's as if the most sensitive /steepest curve for the gas pedal (JOY_Y for my G27, applying to my purple text in my picture for, uh, "clarity", sorry it got a little messy) is when it is at the upper halv of it's (physical) movement. But in-game it seems to be the opposite (which is what I wanted). Also the pedal axes don't seem to start at the same graph point, but rather they meet in the middle instead of starting at the middle? That is, the "black box" output axis should, I think, start in the middle... But again, this is what it seemingly does in-game, and that's what I want of course. Basically, it works but I don't quite get why. Or there is a bug in the axis tuning? Maybe I've been overthinking this, I need a break :P My image for "clarity" (I have a curvature of -25 for now. Not -40 as here, I just did it to emphasize the curve better):
  2. Kegetys: Ok. I suppose that also works with other flight sims, that don't have this kind of (awesome!) setup. Me I'm pretty happy this worked for the time being. I do have MS flight sim X also, but haven't tried it for a long time (pre-G27 and pre-trackIR era :P), so I don't remember how axes are set up there, for example. Then PPJoy/GlovePIE might be needed (or your hack).
  3. Sorry for bringing up an old post, but I also have a G27 that I wanted to use as a rudder, by using the gas and clutch pedals. I'm a beginner at this, and maybe this is not needed to explain, but as I just got it working I thought I could share how, just in case. Btw I did it using the built-in controller setup, no PPJoy or GlovePIE needed. Also, this worked with DCS:BS (I don't have the updated BS2, but I bet it works there too), which had a basically identical axis setup. In short: Select "rudder", clear it under the G25 / G27 column, then double-click it and press the gas pedal to get it registered as an axis. Press OK. Repeat for the clutch pedal. Now there should be two axis listed in the G25 / G27 "rudder" field. Then select "Axis Tune", and set the "Saturation Y" to 50 for both axes. Also set both axes as a "Slider", and then invert one of them. For me I had to invert the gas pedal axis, named "JOY_Y", while the clutch pedal axis (named JOY_SLIDER2) was not. And that worked! As said I'm a beginner and haven't used this much, but anyway there it is (I hope). Some pictures:
  4. I have it as StereoMemoEnabled REG_DWORD 0x00000000 (0), and it works. But maybe it's not a relevant setting (I don't know). Btw thanks for the posts, I would never have figured this out otherwise! I'm using Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit (SP 2), Geforce GTX 470 with nVidia driver version 296.10. I don't have any 3D monitor, but I sometimes like to test games with the red-cyan anaglyph glasses. My registry settings that worked is basically what is in this post, except the typo as mentioned above. Like this: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\Stereo3D\GameConfigs\dcs] "StereoMemoEnabled"=dword:00000000 "StereoDX9"=dword:00000001 "StereoTextureEnable"=dword:00000001 "Link1"=hex(2):4c,00,61,00,75,00,6e,00,63,00,68,00,65,00,72,00,2e,00,65,00,78,\ 00,65,00,00,00 This could be saved as a .reg file and then imported into the windows registry by double clicking it (perhaps/probably as administrator though). NOTE: I do not guarantee that it will work for your computer, all I can say is that it worked for me. The usual warnings about messing about in the registry applies, you could bork your computer/OS if you don't know what you are doing!
