WindyTX Posted July 9, 2016 Posted July 9, 2016 Just got a VKB Gladiator as my travel joystick. The mode switch is no working in DCS Anyone in the same situation.

Sokol1_br Posted July 9, 2016 Posted July 9, 2016 Think that you need create profiles in VKB Device Config for change between then with "mode switch". There you find VictorUS that have good knowledge of VKB Device Config an can help. http://forum.vkb-sim.pro/viewforum.php?f=25&sid=10d61bc6d8593343eb7fa194b9e107e3 Similar question for Black Mamba three position mode switch and solution. http://forum.vkb-sim.pro/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=2081
WindyTX Posted July 9, 2016 Author Posted July 9, 2016 Thanks yes I had found that unfortunately the software doesn't recognize the Gladiator cpu. Was hoping someone here had a work around.

Sokol1_br Posted July 10, 2016 Posted July 10, 2016 They are working in simplified config software, called WIZZO, should be release in next weeks.
Sokol1_br Posted July 10, 2016 Posted July 10, 2016 Thanks yes I had found that unfortunately the software doesn't recognize the Gladiator cpu. UIV (VKB) say that VKB Device Config version 77.2.6 is compatible with Gladiator. http://forum.vkb-sim.pro/viewtopic.php?f=27&p=22275#p22275
WindyTX Posted July 11, 2016 Author Posted July 11, 2016 I can only see 75 not 77 do you have a link I7 3930 4.2GHz ( Hyperthreading Off), GTX1080, 16 GB ddr3 Hotas Warthog Saiteck Combat Pedals HTC Vive, Oculus CV1. GTX 1080 Has its uses
Bourrinopathe Posted July 11, 2016 Posted July 11, 2016 Hi Andrew, The VKB Device Config software v77.2.6 is available >>> HERE <<< You should be able to test the mode switch in the TEST tab (select your joystick in the list first). Can you see two different buttons in DCS when you use the different modes for a single physical button? (e.g. MODE 1: trigger=BTN_1 and MODE 2: trigger=BTN_10) /// ВКБ: GF Pro MkII+MCG Pro/GF MkII+SCG L/Black Mamba MkIII/Gladiator/T-Rudder MkII | X-55 Rhino throttle/Saitek Throttle Quadrant | OpenTrack+UTC /// ZULU +4 /// /// "THE T3ASE": i9 9900K | 64 GB DDR4 | RTX 2080ti OC | 2 TB NVMe SSDs, 1 TB SATA SSD, 12 TB HDDs | Gigabyte DESIGNARE mobo ///
WindyTX Posted July 11, 2016 Author Posted July 11, 2016 The shift button works but the mode button that changes the LED and is supposed to change the function of the 13 buttons doesn't work . I am not clear on the VKB config software all I really want is to load a profile so the Joysticks works as per the manual.

Bourrinopathe Posted July 11, 2016 Posted July 11, 2016 Yes, you definitely shouldn't have to touch the config software ;) Unless someone can help you here, I'd suggest you head to the official forum to ask for a profile or some detailed help. That might be faster. /// ВКБ: GF Pro MkII+MCG Pro/GF MkII+SCG L/Black Mamba MkIII/Gladiator/T-Rudder MkII | X-55 Rhino throttle/Saitek Throttle Quadrant | OpenTrack+UTC /// ZULU +4 /// /// "THE T3ASE": i9 9900K | 64 GB DDR4 | RTX 2080ti OC | 2 TB NVMe SSDs, 1 TB SATA SSD, 12 TB HDDs | Gigabyte DESIGNARE mobo ///

Sokol1_br Posted July 14, 2016 Posted July 14, 2016 For what I understand - seems the OP are confusing what is the mode button. :) With the default profile (already loaded in joystick EPROM memory) the MODE button change the buttons in grip, but not the ones in the base, similar to this drawing (just the button # in default profile are different): Joystick has 15 physical buttons (not counting the pinkie button used as "shift" and POV HAT) and using Mode + "shift" plus more 14 "virtual" buttons, 6 in two buttons on top of grip plus 8 in POV HAT + "shift" - POV HAT in mode 1 and 2 still controlling POV. Think if add this Mode to base buttons things became very confusing... :D
WindyTX Posted July 15, 2016 Author Posted July 15, 2016 OK Thanks to all that replied I got the Thing working with 50 buttons using the VKBConfig program I attached it Use at your own risk :) It uses the red and green LED and the shift for when the red LED is on.

Sokol1_br Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) VKB Device Config program don't save "profiles" (configuration) in "Windows file", save as "any name you want.cfg" in the folder that you choose: Will be more easy find if you leave this profiles (.cfg) in the same folder of the program VKB device Config or WIZZO. This saved "profiles" can be loaded in Gladiator memory with VKB Device Config or WIZZO softwares. Edited July 29, 2016 by Sokol1_br
WindyTX Posted July 30, 2016 Author Posted July 30, 2016 As sokol said you will need the VKB config 77 software there is a link in this thread or it sounds like you can use Wizzo.
