Chris P Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 Okay, I know that it's been about 10 years since I've messed with Foxy, but I'm having a biatch of a time trying to modify a profile for the Cougar HOTAS. Many thanks to Rudel and MVS-Viper for the F16 profiles, but I have a few things that I wanted to modify for a few buttons. The problem I'm having is that I will change or make a new macro definition and drag and drop it (or write it from scratch, it doesn't matter) into the BTN definition, save, and load it to the stick but the old macro is still there. For example, I don't want the wheel brakes on the paddle switch, I'd rather have a headtracker recenter on it. I define Headtracking_Recenter = {CTL F9} in the macros, go into the TMJ file and drop it into the button line: BTN S4 /I /H Paddle_Switch-Depress /O /H Headtracking_Recenter I save both files, and download it to the stick, but the keypress viewer still shows the paddle sending 'w'. Checking the TMJ doesn't show any errors. I don't remember having this much trouble way back when.... Can anyone tell me what I'm forgetting (or what I forgot I'm forgetting)? Thanks!

Chris P Posted April 30, 2020 Author Posted April 30, 2020 Well, I thought I had, but I checked it off and back on and now it seems to be working correctly. Is there a difference in downloading from Foxy or from the CCP? Thanks! Chris P 'Nascar' Raleigh NC [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Rudel_chw Posted May 1, 2020 Posted May 1, 2020 .. Is there a difference in downloading from Foxy or from the CCP? No, but I always download from Foxy, as that way I can leave open the graphic with the button assignments, on the background, just in case I need to refer to it :) For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
Chris P Posted May 12, 2020 Author Posted May 12, 2020 One last question..... (for now...) I've gotten everything working the way I'd like, but while the microstick works fine for the radar cursor, when I go into the TGP display in narrow field, the cursor is way too jumpy to get it centered over a target. Is there a setting you can add in the microstick settings that would make it be more smooth? Using Rudel's stick settings below: MIY 5 3 (0 40 60 100) (/H RDR_CURSOR_Switch-Down) ^ (/H RDR_CURSOR_Switch-Up) MIX 5 3 (0 40 60 100) (/H RDR_CURSOR_Switch-Left ) ^ (/H RDR_CURSOR_Switch-Right) The Foxy help doesn't really explain how the banding in the Type 5 statement helps with the sensitivity... I had thought maybe use the /A modifier with a slight delay instead of the /H, but that's not allowed. Chris P 'Nascar' Raleigh NC [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
