Lupus4 Posted May 19, 2020 Posted May 19, 2020 Many years ago I came across a program called Touchbuddy that could be used to build custom touch screen menu's to use as game controllers for any number of video games. It seems that between then and now (when I have the money and touch screens aren't all insanely expensive) that support and development for that particular piece of software is gone. Does anyone have any recommendations on software that can be used to build custom game controllers out of a touch screen monitor? “If you're in a fair fight, you didn't plan it properly.” ― Nick Lappos "If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing.

ilikepie Posted May 19, 2020 Posted May 19, 2020 Helios maybe? https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3302014/ As Rudel has said...if you have a touch screen then Helios os a great way to go. Especially with the profiles from Capt Zeen. Action After Contemplation
Lupus4 Posted May 20, 2020 Author Posted May 20, 2020 Thank you. I'll look at Helios. It looks like a great option to try. “If you're in a fair fight, you didn't plan it properly.” ― Nick Lappos "If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing.

Thick8 Posted May 20, 2020 Posted May 20, 2020 Before I went VR I had HELIOS on a 22” touch screen. It made the game playable for me. Just having key-mapping was a nogo. Add 3 55” TVs and your set.

Add 3 55” TVs and your set. Well, I've got 3 27" monitors. I don't think the Obutto would hold 3 55" TV's.
