After hours of frustration, I finally figured it out. Under the controls tab where you map the keys, I didn't realize that there are two different gameplay modes: KA-Real, and KA-game. I cleared the commands under KA-real, but the JOY x and JOY Y commands were still mapped to the rudder in the KA-game mode. Easy fix, but one that truly had me stumped. Runs like a charm now! This sim rocks. Can't believe how much fun it is, and I haven't even scratched the surface.

I'm stumped. My toebrakes are controlling my cyclic, and I've tried everything to stop them from doing so. I cleared all axis commands and reloaded them, with my rudder being JOYRZ and pitch, roll, and collective being JOYY,X, and Z, respectively. I look down into the cockpit and whenever I push on the toebrakes, it makes the cyclic move around like I am using my x-52 joystick. The only way I can fly is to make sure I don't depress my toebrakes, but that's hard on my feet. I've got he latest drivers loaded, I messed with every setting I can think of in the Saitek profile editor, including deadzones, but nothing seems to work. The only axis command I have assigned to my rudder pedals is JOYRZ, so why are my toebrakes sending the game JOY_Y and JOY-X commands, and what can I do to prevent that from happening?

I assigned zoom to the slider on the throttle, but did it from the games input options, not the SST programming thing. If you use the rotaries, make sure you have a band in the center ident that doesn't have a key assigned to it, otherwise your controller will constantly be sending a keystroke to the game. And lastly, I HIGHLY recommend picking up a set of rudder pedals for the x-52. I hated the twisty stick and since flying with pedals it makes lining up those strafing runs on the A-10 a thing of beauty!

After flying a couple of missions, I begin to get weird graphic glitches and textures all out of whack. I noticed when I end a mission and the dialogue box appears asking me if I want to save, quit, or cancel, the mouse cursor blinks rapidly between the normal arrow and an hourglass. Somewhere, somehow I'm getting inputs from somewhere that is slowly strangling my game but I don't know where they are coming from. I'm flying LOMAC ver 1.02 with a saitek x-52 and rudder pedals with Track IR 1. I know I have a problem with the "33" and "34" key on my saitek (well known bug) but I use a profile from the SST program that doesn't use either one of those inputs so I wouldn't think those keys spiking would be the cause. At any rate, I was wondering if there is a log file that keeps track of all inputs? Any and all help is welcome. Thanks. Update: I think I found the problem. I didn't have a blank band set on one of the rotary knobs on my x-52 and even when it was at it's centered ident position it was still sending out commands to the computer.
