Rapierarch Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) I have just bought the module I did the keybindings of all my 3 cougar mfd's in controls menu. Although main buttons were already mapped for right and left I have checked them also and corrected contrast and brightness mappings. But most of right mfd keybindings do not work. I have thrustmaster cougar mfd's. Left and center one works but for right mfd only 4 or 5 buttons in total are operational. I do not see the button in the cockpit moving. In controls menu everything is fine and buttons are all highlighted when I press them. I have no problems in Hornet, Harrier and F-16 or any other module where I have mapped right mfd buttons. Thanks in advance for solving this problem. Edited July 20, 2022 by Rapierarch Solved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colmillo Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Hello I remember that something similar happened to me with some buttons on the central MDF. I fixed it by changing the keyboard combination assigned to that key. for example if button U2 requires left + ctrl + 2 , I changed it to shft + 2 and then assigned control to it. I hope it helps you [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-10900KF CPU @ 3.70GHz 3.70 GHz ROG STRIX Z490-E GAMING RAM 128 M.2*2 2T total SSD*3 2.5T total GeForce RTX 3090 Orion2 HOTAS F-16EX Saitek Pro Rudder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rapierarch Posted July 8, 2022 Author Share Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) 3 hours ago, uboats said: And then retry the preset Hey thanks, Unfortunately no change everything is exactly same. for left and center I had to redo the brightness contrast and symbology brightness settings again as I did before and all buttons are functioning there as before. (edit: This time I did not need to remap all the buttons on mfd3 they were already mapped but it is working with or without preset) Right MFD no change. I have mapped everything except on off switch. Here below the list of only working buttons on right MFD U 1, 3, 5 L 2, 4 R 2, 4 D none! And none of the adjustment buttons. It is very strange because I can map them and in the controls menu when I click those buttons I see them highlighted. I hope there is an easy fix.

Hi there, for the right mfd I do not see standard keyboard bindings. Thanks anyway may be I can put some keyboard bindings and that may do some trick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mfd controller works with any other module. Any other game. I can also see the key bindings highlighted when I test them in controls setup. Is there any other thing that I can try?

Thanks and kindest regards, You need to use TARGET app to identify each MFD, for left one, it should be ID 1 (top left light on), for right one it should be ID 2 (top right light on), for center one it should be ID 3 (both light on) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] My DCS Mods, Skins, Utilities and Scripts | Windows 10 | i7-4790K | GTX 980Ti Hybrid | 32GB RAM | 3TB SSD | | TM Warthog Stick | CH Pro Throttle + Pro Pedal | TIR5 Pro | TM MFD Cougar | Gun Camera: PrtScn | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapierarch Posted July 18, 2022 Author Share Posted July 18, 2022 6 hours ago, uboats said: to identify each MFD, It has been set just like that. ID1 and ID3 has not problems. I have promlem with ID2 on JF-17. The same one (ID-2) works flawlessly in any other module or other sim. Also I cen bind keys in the controls menu and when I press keys there I can see them highlighted on JF-17 too. Everything is working as it should work on controller side and DCS side. But it feels as if those are not wired in cockpit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sacarino111 Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Hi. Also make sure you don't have those buttons mapped to another feature, like the NS430 or similar. that will be then overritten! I had that problem, but with all the modules that had the NS430 as an option; the RMFD buttons asigned to it where not working on the planes where the NS430 was enabled. Saludos.

Saca111 I did not try this but I'm almost 99% sure you are right. I have NS430 for Mi-8 and I use right mfd buttons which are not working right now for NS430. I'll check this but as far as can see only the buttons which I have not mapped there are working. I have ofcourse turned off that in all the modules months ago but probably when JEF is installed it enabled it. Controls tab does not show any conflicts. I could have never found this! thanks. I'll confirm this evening. But as I said I'm 99% sure you have found it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapierarch Posted July 18, 2022 Author Share Posted July 18, 2022 Thanks 2 hours ago, Sacarino111 said: Saca111 You were right. I have removed all keybindings from NS430 and everything works now. Dear @uboats, I have NS430 module which I use only with MI-8. I have disabled all other modules in its settings. But apparently JF-17 is not on that list where you can enable or disable the NS430. It seems like if you cannot disable it explicitly it is enabled by default . And you cannot use any bindings that you used there in your module that you are flying. It does not give any conflict warning but it simply does not allow you to operate using those bindings. You should ask ED to add JF-17 to the list of the modules in NS430. I do not know how many people use it but it conflicts with your module. And there is no way of knowing it. Thanks to @Sacarino111who experienced the same thing before and informed me here. My problem is solved. There is nothing wrong with your module. Kindest regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
