Zoltenburg Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 I need a file to download into my Cougar HOTAS. Is anyone using that controler?
RustBelt Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 Don't, just set it as regular buttons and use the in game DCS control assignments. 1
RustBelt Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) Yes. I know with my ancient F-16 FLCS (the Cougars Grand pappy) you could program it so the outputs were just "Joystick Buttons" not a keyboard output / Macro. Thought you could with the Cougar. Or are you meaning you need the software to even set up the Cougar....because the best I can do is point you to this, and wish you good luck that any of that still applies to Windows 10. https://support.thrustmaster.com/en/product/hotascougar-en/ I think target works with the cougar? I gutted mine for parts ages ago. Edited December 21, 2020 by RustBelt
IronMike Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 You can visit https://104thphoenix.com/ - register on the forums and send a PM to PoleCat - he owns four cougars with all those juicy NTS mods and whatnot existed, and if anyone knows how to get it still running, it is him. Send him a pm and tell him that IronMike pointed you in his direction and that I said hi.

I have not gotten a response. Is it possible you can reach out to him for me? It is extremely hard to find other pilots who still use this flight system.

I'll send Manawar a PM to approve your registration, both are very busy and it sometimes takes a while till they notice. We'll get you in touch, no worries. What's the username you registered with? And please be so kind and send me the email address you used for registering, we'll find you quicker like that. Thanks.

Dragon1-1 Posted December 24, 2020 Posted December 24, 2020 If that doesn't work, there's another F-16 sim out there, and the forum is much easier to get access to. They do sometimes use Cougars, mostly for the throttle.

I'm not sure how to use the Foxy program. The are profile files that will replicate the actual F-16 flight stick.
