AD1Hammerhead Posted January 11, 2023 Posted January 11, 2023 Wound up here due to LOMAC. Loved it, until it would not work any more. So now I have to get this working, and need help. First of all... need the stick to work correctly. All efforts so far have failed. I set up the axis and needed button controls, save as. OK. Go to game and get not one of the key bind and axis settings to work. Defaults to game normal... X + Y only. Ignores everything but trigger and drop. To make matters worse, trims on the keyboard don't work either. I'm doing something wrong. Manual seems to be out of date, I don't see the same page displays/selections they show in the manual on my game. Read the long and short control setups, Save as, OK. and nothing changes. Have a Cyborg Extreme 3D. Also, a HOTAS Cougar I'd love to get working.(coulden't get Foxy or TARGET to work.) Last worked on FOXY in XP. Now have new PC with Win 11. Ouch. Please HELP if you can. Thanx in Advance, Dave 1
Exorcet Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 From a few internet searches, it seems the Cyborg is not compatible with Win 11.

Thanx in Advance, Dave Which Aircraft are you setting your controls for? make sure you are setting the correct profile for the aircraft, most have one called "Game Mode" and one called "sim" make sure you are setting the controls for the SIM mode. (This is assuming you are not trying to run DCS in "GAME Mode", which is more arcade based mode for the game, but it is not well supported so you should not use it in my opinion.)
AD1Hammerhead Posted January 12, 2023 Author Posted January 12, 2023 A10 C II Game mode. So, Game mode is not the best way to learn how to get the controls working. I had hoped to be able to fly longer than a minute after take off without getting shot down. Guess I'll have to dive into the deep end and try to figure it out. I usually take small incremental steps first, just to get the kinks out before committing to battle plans. I miss my cougar's 28 buttons already. Back to the books for me. Thanx for the heads up Thunder.
