Whiplash Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 I am working on a switch panel for DCS: P-51. I am trying to implement as many switches and axis that I can to simulate a cockpit. My question is: Is there some limit to how many buttons can be on a single joystick, either enforced by windows or DCS? I'm running DCS on Windows 7 and I am using a Teensy ++ 2.0 board with a custom HID generic Joystick setup. I'm an just getting started on this project but I am hoping someone might be able to answer my questions as it will be key in planning what function I can add to the panel. Thanks in advance!

Whiplash Posted February 4, 2014 Author Posted February 4, 2014 one more question though... Is that number effected by the number of axes? I need 6 axes as well.

cichlidfan Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 (edited) You're welcome. Btw, you might find this board interesting. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=80201 No, that is not including axis, though I don't recall how many are supported. I think it is mentioned in the linked thread.
