this is what i use:

        MapKey        (    &Throttle,     IDLERON,      PULSE+DX71);
        MapKey        (    &Throttle,     IDLELON,      PULSE+DX72);
        
        MapKey        (    &Throttle,     IDLEROFF,      PULSE+DX73);
        MapKey        (    &Throttle,     IDLELOFF,      PULSE+DX74);

 

which works fine 

 

 

Looking at it again it never saved after I made the changes. As soon as I saved it and ran it, DCS saw 50-51, all good!

not as far as i know/remember

the only thing to remember is if you have any switches not set to pulse you might need a couple of goes to make sure its picking up the right ones

Looking at your script I saw it was identical other than the DX#s, which caused me to re-open the file and see my changes were not saved.. Once saved all was well, works perfectly! Thanks for all the help Speed!

Trying to get this up and running for my Warthog Throttle (with the aftermarket TDC slew switch from Delta Sim Electronics), and can't quite figure out what all is needed to make this work all work. Can someone point me to a single place where the most up-to-date versions of these files are located and what the specific install instructions are (i.e. what folders the files need to be in, etc.). Thank you for the help!

My scripts are in C:\Program Files (x86)\Thrustmaster\TARGET\scripts, to use the WarthogThrottleALLSwitchPos script you need WarthogThrottleALLSwitchPos.tmc and the targetdx128.tmh in this folder. IIRC i had to add a couple lines to get what I want but it ran as-is..

Perfect. Thank you for the assist!

I just updated to Windows 11. Now however I get an error when compiling or running this script, but from the targetdx128.tmh file.

Identifier name expected in targetdx128.tmh at line 883

I checked line 883, and it is where the dx begins to be defined.

define DX33            3032

Anyone have any ideas?

Do you run the latest Target with older scripts?
If so, use the previous defines.tmh, sys.tmh and hid.tmh instead of the new ones.

Sorry, can you elaborate on this please?

I've been using this for over 2 years now, I know I had to do something before to make it work, but now I don't remember what that was.
Like patpat above, I've just installed windows 11, and used the latest version of the TM software.

I'm getting the same error as above
Compile Error: Identifier name expected in targetdx128.tmh at line 883

I made a shortcut to the script launcher that says
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Thrustmaster\TARGET\x64\TARGETGUI.exe" -r "G:\Saved Games\DCS\WarthogThrottleALLSwitchPos2.tmc"

The WarthogThrottleALLSwitchPos2.tmc has a 2 in it because I modified it somehow, for one of the buttons I think.

And now I don't know what to do....... please HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!

After installing the latest version 3.0.23.608 (which includes F-16 Throttle) none of my scripts would compile and would always come with an error:

Compile Error: Identifier name expected in targetdx128.tmh at line 883

It's the first line where the extra DX buttons (above 32) are defined.

I just replaced the defines.tmh, sys.tmh and hid.tmh files with those from a previous version 3.0.20.826 and then it worked again.
Actually, both sys.tmh and hid.tmh don't need to be replaced because they are the same as the previous version but defines.tmh differs (i guess because the F-16 Throttle also goes beyond the standard 32 DX buttons per device).
 

Solution: just replace the new defines.tmh with the the old one.

I'll drop that old one here:

 

defines.tmh

Thanks very much,

I haven't done a great deal of testing but I think I got it working with a slightly different method.

I edited the targetdx128.tmh and removed the definitions for DX33 to DX64 (line 883 to 914)

I think because like you say, they've added more buttons to the defines.tmh, so not as many are needed in the targetdx128.tmh file.
