How can I map the VR zoom to a joystick?

[nickos86]

In the UI layer it's greyed out for joysticks. Possible for keyboard only... Is there a way to bind it to a joystick anyway?

Thanks.

I checked both stable and Open Beta, and the command "toggle VR Zoom" is available for all game controllers.
If it's greyed out for joysticks etc that would indicate that the following line is missing in the file "default.lua" under "...\Config\Input\UiLayer\joystick":

{down = iHeadTrackerZoomToggle				, up = iHeadTrackerZoomToggle			, value_down = 1.0	, value_up = 0.0	, name = _('toggle VR Zoom'				), category = vr},

You could add it manually, using a program editor like "Notepad++". But the safest method is to run a Repair.

I presume  that you have not modified that file.

what should I do in order to add "wheel brake" for both wheels as an option for one of my joysticks? The only options not grayed out for my pedals are left/right brakes. Due to mechanical issue with the rudder pedals - I have to use the only active axis for both wheels... 

Thanks. 

EDIT: found the the solution. It's identical to the answer before.

I've added 

"{combos = {{key = 'JOY_Y',filter ={    deadzone     = 0,
                                    saturationX = 1,
                                    curvature   = {0},
                                    saturationY = 1,
                                    invert        = true,
                                    slider        = true}}},action = iCommandWheelBrake,    name = _('Wheel Brake On/Off')}," 

to the pedals lua file in the \Mods\aircraft\A-10C_2\Input\A-10C_2\joystick folder
