oldmanflan Posted November 5, 2019 Posted November 5, 2019 For those with HOTAS, how are you setting your toe brakes to achieve gradual wheel brake pressure? In the DCS Controls for the F16, I'm only seeing one option for wheel brakes: Wheel brake - ON/OFF I have this bound to 'B', which is set to a specific button on my throttle controls. However, it basically makes my brake pressure 100% or 0%. I'm not sure how to set gradual brake pressure with this setup. I do have a slider on my throttle that I can set to 30% - 50% - 75% - 100%. This would be ideal but I'm not sure how to properly program this slider to achieve the goal of gradual brake pressure since it seems to just be ON/OFF in DCS controls. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
CobaltUK Posted November 5, 2019 Posted November 5, 2019 (edited) Needs to be set with Axis for brakes. (controls/axis) Then you have left/right and i presume variation. Rudder pedals required unless some other awkward axis assigned. Just noticed you mentioned a slider on throttle :) There is wheel brake combined as well as the left/right for use with pedals. Been moved to bugs ? Maybe there is no varying pressure yet. Edited November 5, 2019 by CobaltUK Windows 7/10 64bit, Intel i7-4770K 3.9GHZ, 32 GB Ram, Gforce GTX 1080Ti, 11GB GDDR5 Valve Index.

I guess I'll just have to practice proper landing with little to no braking required! :)
bbrz Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 The antidkid system is, like in the F/A-18, still broken. With the antiskid working, the wheels shouldn't intermittently lock up and there should be no rubber marks with 100% braking. The landing roll should be also considerable shorter than with antiskid off, which istn't the case. i7-7700K 4.2GHz, 16GB, GTX 1070
