misfit Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 What I am trying to find out is, once the joystick has been setup from within LockOn, it is stored in the appropriate controller ".ini" file in the "input" directory. Is there any way that I can read that .ini file, so that I can see exactly what the joystick pitch and roll curves values are? I've tried to open the ini file file a standard text reader, but that obviously does not produce a readable output. When you set the curves in the input screen, you are moving sliders that result in a certain curve "shape". I am trying to determine the exact values for the SHIFT slider, the D-ZONE slider, and the CURVE slider, once they have been set. Rather than a position on a slider, is there a numeric value stored in a file that corresponds to the position that was set by the user, for these three values. If anyone here can suggest a way that I can either read that controller .ini file, or otherwise retrieve that data, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Jim
HavokFlight Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 I would suggest copying the file, and saving it somewhere. THEN edit the file to the extreme end of the slider ... just one ... and to a comparison and see what changed. That will tell you what text string is for that slider, then do the same for the other sliders that you want to check out. After that a little tinkering and comparing will tell you how much equals how much. Mechanical engineers design weapons ... civil engineers design targets.
