the ability to map/assign joystick to the axis commands for Kord Doorgun UP/DOWN and LEFT/RIGHT did not make it into the recent open beta 2.9 patch when i go to the axis assignments under the Mi8MTV2 gunner and Mi8MTV2 TrackIR Gunner drop down categories in controls settings, i am unable to add assignments to the Doorgun UP/DOWN, LEFT/RIGHT, also clicking under the joystick column does nothing.. please mention to devs @Flappie

tested on recent open beta 2.9 joystick controlled Kord Doorgun working quite well along with Virtual Reality. the DLSS visuals look cool when tracers hit the ground down range! hopefully the simshaker issue will be fixed, that is the only thing missing is the bass shaker effects!

@Flappie one of the Simshaker Reps identified it as something on the simshaker application end. he was able to replicate the issue and will forward to the simshaker devs.. so i will check back then they have something.. hopefully in the next simshaker aviators application update!

appreciate it!!! thank you for looking into it. as mentioned before i can not DCS without simshaker!

i will check back after the 2.9 update. i do own two licenses for simshaker sound module. i will test on both PCs with the mi24P installs. also, i use ORIGINAL Mi24P. also two copies of it... NOT a mod.. will share details when i have thanks @=Andre=!

reading thru new comments.. seeing @BIGNEWY profile pic, im wondering if he is a cat lover? that is my speculation lol internet cats rule the internet! i am in great anticipation too. looking to possible take day off tmrw to enjoy DCS! studying AV8B at moment..

i dont run the seat, i use the sound module to push my bass shakers... its the really the simshaker aviator's application, maybe it can be tested without the seat by having USB / JetSeat de-selected

one of the beta testers is trying to help forward my issue with the Mi24p. i see that the log reports ""Number of provided pylons doesn' match PayloadLlst" when Mi24P is running. details of my issue on this thread, if anyone from simshaker could assist.

hey @Flappie @f4l0 @=Andre= i re-installed simshaker and deleted the simshaker folders in my documents just in case my issue isnt a fluke. even after reinstall i still have the issue of the Mi24P not sending data to simshaker when firing the kord doorgun. (the Mi-8MTV2 and UH-1H is working perfectly. i added the trackfile of my play. i dont know where the logs are saved for simshaker but in the aviators simshaker version 2.6.8.0 i enable logging and i see that there is some kind of continuous error reporting for the Mi24P "Number of provided pylons doesn' match PayloadLlst" (this doesnt happen for the Mi8MTV2 and UH-1H) I am adding screenshots, and will add a video shortly. if anyone knows where i can find the log file for simshaker, i can always produce it.. Mi-24P unable to trigger sound effects when firing the Kord... the Mi-8MTV2 is working properly, and sound effects are triggered when firing the Kord TNN_release-2.0.66-20231018-211416.trk

Ray ramano here.. miss you and the pointctrl group.. still trying to fly the harriers with u guys! We have to revisit the huey mission! We are lucky yo have u on the DCS community

Will be looking for benchmarks when 2.9 is out. Everyone says amd, wondering if 2.9 will be any better with intel cpu..

parts acquired. will be soldering diodes and wires shortly. photos posted on post #2

waiting for someone to 3d print a gold AK47.. i mean TEDAC lol

i use a bodnar for the MFD section of my tedac. i have no complaints. but pro micro for the grips since the board is smaller

i am EST as well. i just recently joined the vVF-161 fighting stingrays. they are easy going, and have some training track, i feel that they are welcoming to those who want to dip into milsim but not overly hardcore

i think multiple usb board is better than stripping down xbox controllers. but if u have time and theres a xbox controller not being used, why not. but if one spent money on 3d prints and switches, might as well get controller boards. mmjoy2 and pro micro for the win!

is there any DLC or user missions that resemble the micropose gunship missions? or janes longbow?

im for this..!! ̶h̶y̶p̶e̶r̶l̶o̶b̶b̶y̶ -> in game server browser ̶s̶i̶m̶p̶l̶e̶ ̶r̶a̶d̶i̶o̶ ̶s̶t̶a̶n̶d̶a̶l̶o̶n̶e̶ -> in game VoIP any idea if 2.9 will run better on amd 7800x3d or intel 13700k/14700k? it will influence new PC decision! but i know i should wait for 2.9 and watch benchmarks.

just shared the STL files on the first post and on thingiverse https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6243235 step by step assemble details to come!

when it gets beyond one controller board obviously it gets complex with the amount of buttons the grips and the mfd has with it. i just 3 separate controlller boards, at the end of the day i can make each control independant. i think i have 12 joysticks that show up in windows controllers!! which is pain in DCS but i deal with it

updated first post with wiring diagrams! 3d print file design have been completed. sharing of STL files imminient. trying to put together a how to build tutorial for this version #4 design easy doorgun controller as i go.

i am nearly 50 as well.. 48... wow. i mean i still feel 38... there was a time when there was no in game multiplayer browser, and we had to use hyperlobby.. lately i been learning the tomcat. totally enjoying the moment. 50 is a scary number!

ok andre! thanks! i started a thread for this issue in the module's corner i cant DCS without simshaker! i hope the output for hind doorgun shake can be addressed by the right ppl.

i dont seem to get bass shaker effects for the Mi24p HIND Kord doorgunner. but it works perfectly for the Mi8mtv2 HIP Kord doorgunner. i had brought it up in the simshaker thread, but one of the simshaker admin/devs mention what i understood as integration need on both DCS side of things and the simshaker software side of things who can i direct attention to for this? simshaker is a great add on when it works! trying to get the effects or telemtry to work for the Mi24P hind! @PilotMi8 @f4l0 @Flappie

No problem. Is this related to ED or is something that @f4l0 programs in? If this was an ED thing, I would share to @Flappie that there is no for mi24 doorgun telemetry, but the mi8 doorgun has telemetry..
