splash Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 If I bind a joystick button for "Matra II Select" in HOTAS category, when I look into All category is in blank. And viceversa, if I bind in All category, it is in blank in HOTAS category. Another problem is that I cannot move TDC when assigned to two axes. Both issues only happens in DCS Open Alpha.
PiedDroit Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) If I bind a joystick button for "Matra II Select" in HOTAS category, when I look into All category is in blank. And viceversa, if I bind in All category, it is in blank in HOTAS category. They are 2 different bindings (and 2 different switches in the aircraft). The one on the HOTAS will put your radar in close combat mode and also alternate between Magics and guns. The one in 'All' is for MAG button on PCA. I can't tell about TDC, I think the axis is still not working, you need to use the keys. Not sure though. Edited March 28, 2016 by PiedDroit
splash Posted March 28, 2016 Author Posted March 28, 2016 Thanks for your answer. I know there are two ways for selecting Matra, but in 1.5.3 if you list "All" you'll find Matra II Select - Weapons management category. In 2.0.1 if you list "All" you'll find Matra II Select - HOTAS category. So the control listed is different. If you choose "All" is supposed to get all controls, so you'd have to get two Matra II Select entries. I was flying in 2.0.1 and probably from "HOTAS" category I was binding a different control that the one listed under "All" category. I compared default.lua for joystick in 1.5.3 and 2.0.1 and they're quite different.

TDC Axis work in 1.5.3, but you cannot set a lot of saturation => that makes them useless. = = = = It's MAGIC II not Matra II (Matra is the maker, it makes S-530D too).

splash Posted March 28, 2016 Author Posted March 28, 2016 For me TDC it's working flawlessly in 1.5.3. I'm happy with the default setting and I'm using no saturation at all in my CH ProThrottle. I bought M-2000C last Saturday and it's one of my favourite modules.

I had noticed in previous versions that the HOTAS Magic switch would only appear if you selected HOTAS category, otherwise the other Magic Select function (i.e. PCA) would be listed instead. This may or may not be the same issue, disregard my post if that is something else. TCD Axis work in 1.5.3, but you cannot set a lot of saturation => that makes them useless.

Would be interested to hear confirmation for that, struggled with this one myself (but it was a few weeks back, and my memory is not that good).
