T.Bone Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 im trying to set up my rudder, on my cougar, but unlike other games were you just click a button on your flight stick, it assigns, it to that button, with this game you have to chose it from a drop down list, here lies my problem, i dont no what button in the game control list, represents what button, is on my cougar:( im useing this at the moment DCSBlackShark_V.TMJ, but when im in hover mode, i cant turn left or right, or i cant find the key also has anybody made any hotas cougar prifiles:thumbup: any help plz regards TBone
jamiroq Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 in fc and bs you generally don't need to select an axis; you just double click where you want it to be assigned and move the axis through it's full range of motion, so that the game recognizes and assigns it.

Maverick-GER- Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 To make something clear for you T.Bone... Most cougar users also use rudder pedals like these Therefore there will be no rudder assigned to their cougar. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] F-14 Tomcat Rest in Peace (and hopefully get reborn in DCS!)

T.Bone Posted December 7, 2008 Author Posted December 7, 2008 T.Bone - I've got a set, the guy was ill at the time but he managed to ship them to me in the UK. Good heavy metal pedals. A good match for my Cougar! did you have to mod it, to get it to work with, your cougar, which ones did you go for? And Thanks guys, will look into getting some, Would also like to say, if i assign rudder left rudder right rudder to my cougar, it doesnt work anyways, got it on btn14 and btn12, tryd diffrent assignments, no good?, so it looks like i stick with the keyboard ZX rudder, or i invest in new set of peddles Thanks for all your help kind regards Tbone:thumbup:
mjolner Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 Dont forget Ebay, you can find a pair on sale there every now and then. And they dont have to be USB. The older game pad style connector works just fine and they connect right up to the cougar. I use non-USB ones and modified them per the instructions at Cougar World for the brake pedals to be recognized. Works great and have had them for years. Good luck to you.
Kula66 Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 did you have to mod it, to get it to work with, your cougar, which ones did you go for? Worked with no fiddling at all, plugged into my Cougar ... I think it was the 'F-16s', that's what it has stamped on the right pedal.
Maverick-GER- Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 must have been the F16/c pedals since they are made exclusively for the cougar.. those you can plug right into the cougar and everything works... other gameport rudders usually have to be modded to work with the cougar.

Legolasindar Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 (edited) You are using my profil T.Bone, but my profile is for have physical rudders, no have rudders keys assigned in profile. If you like assign rudders keys in profile, you need assign rudderleft rudderright (not separated) in TMJ file where you like. But if you use 12 and 14 BTN, you lose others functions, marked in bold. BTN H2L /I WeaponsystemcontrolswitchManual/Auto /O Weaponmodeswitch BTN H2R /I Cannonrateoffiresetting /O Cannonroundselectorswitch if you like change, use this sintax (no forgotte include /H) BTN H2L /I WeaponsystemcontrolswitchManual/Auto /O /H Rudderleft BTN H2R /I Cannonrateoffiresetting /O /H Rudderright My suggestion, buy rudders, fly any aircraft without rudders is dificult, fly Helos without rudders is absurd. I Have CH Pro Pedals USB for years and is im very happy with this buy. Sorry for my english.

T.Bone Posted December 8, 2008 Author Posted December 8, 2008 BTN H2L /I WeaponsystemcontrolswitchManual/Auto /O /H Rudderleft BTN H2R /I Cannonrateoffiresetting /O /H Rudderright I tryd that, but like i said befor, no matter what buttons you try to assign rudder left rudder right, on the hotas cougar, none work, in game, so im stuck with the keyboard rudder for now:( regards Tbone
Legolasindar Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 You have incorrect keys in BS, or incorrect version drivers of Cougar, or others problems. 1- Go to BS and confirm you use default keys, you can load default keys in Options-Controls. 2- You confirm have lastest version of drivers for you cougar. Last version are 3.HCO.2004 for drivers and 3.00.6 for Firmware for XP 3- NewInput.dll know bug, you need download new input file. http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?...8&postcount=12 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Cavallers del Cel - Comunintat Catalana de Simulació http://www.cavallersdelcel.cat
T.Bone Posted December 8, 2008 Author Posted December 8, 2008 Thanks for all your help guys, more so Legolasindar, did all you said on your last post, and now it works fine, on the cougar:thumbup:, but i will invest in a set of rudder pedals.... I see a couple of guys are selling usb CH pedals, on ebay, will they be any good http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CH-Products-USB-Pro-Rudder-Pedals-for-flight-sim_W0QQitemZ160303569442QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Collectables_InputDevices_RL?hash=item160303569442&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1301%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318 or i may go for the F16/c pedals since they are made exclusively for the cougar regards Doc:pilotfly:
