Help with 2 way switches on my new Warthog

[Reflected]

Hi,

 

I just bought a Thrustmaster Warthog, and I really love it. My only problem is that all the 2 way switches are actually just 1 button. I cannot set it to, say, landing lights on/off on my Mustang, because only the "up" position triggers the switch. Is there a way to assign the "up" and "down" position of a 2 way switch to 2 different actions in DCS?:joystick:

 

Thanks a lot,

Greg

If your happy editing Lua files, have a look here

Using Target gets this functionality.

Thanks for the response!

 

Editing the lua files for each functionality in each plane seems very fiddly.

How do I achieve this in Target?

Hello, assign the switch to pulse for each position and assign the keyboard shortcut to what is required. :)

I got mine yesterday, the slew really is shit. I don't use the mic so remapped it to there.

 

Is that really a warthog replica for slew? I worked with some User interface folk who would have slapped my supplier for suggesting that!

 

No idea what the pinky does, mapped that trigger thing in front of the laser to a modifier and considering uses for the left throttle button and the slew thing?!

And for games that don't allow edit LUA - e.g. IL-2's - map in TARGET the same keyboard shortcut in both positions of switch (E.G. G, G for LG).

Eventually on game restart the control can became out of sync, so press the keys for match the switch again. :)

 

BTW - When edit LUA make a backup copy of new files because at every DCS update the default LUA is downloaded again... Or use that MOD manage soft, forget the name.

Thank you, this worked like a charm!!!

 

I only have one problem: when I switch to Eng Oper L - motor, it doesn't press the key combo. The same on the right side works. I have no idea what can be wrong. I checked in the event tester too.

Which version of TARGET are you using?

 

Version 3.0.16 was buggy. I had the same problem. But the new version v3.0.16.520 (2016-05-24) is okay.

Bingo! I installed the new version and now it works like a charm. It took me 2 days to find the perfect setup for every module, but now it's like a dream come true! :)

 

Thank you!!

It's odd at first, but you'll get used to it ;)

I still haven't been able to figure out how to use the slew for the F-15's cursor.

You should also check out Polaris' setup. (although you're done with all the work now...) It's a sticky thread in this forum.

 

Or the HomeFries setup here
