WildBillKelsoe Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Hi, I bought the components and stuck them together. I would like someone with arduino sketch knowledge to help me finish this thing. AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
Richi Posted March 12, 2023 Posted March 12, 2023 Creating a HID device from Arduino is not as easy as you think. Better to use another solution where you can easily edit as many buttons, switches and analog axes as you want. MMJoy2, it can be cheap if you're handy: https://github.com/MMjoy/mmjoy_en/wiki Or use a more expensive but already working device from Leo Bodnar: https://www.leobodnar.com/shop/ 1

That said, thanks for your input. I am using this board based of ATMega32U4. As I understand it, this is compatible with MMJOY?

Biggus Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 You should probably ask in the home cockpits subforum. But yes, that should work with MMJoy2. 1
Richi Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 (edited) Atmega32u4 is OK. Now just how many buttons and axes you want to use and how to connect the buttons, button matrix or shift registers. You probably don't have many buttons there, the matrix will be easier I think here. SH you can use next time. Definitely a bit of information to study. Edited March 23, 2023 by Richi 1

Oh yes I think I am not even close to finishing the sketch.. On 3/23/2023 at 10:16 AM, Biggus said: You should probably ask in the home cockpits subforum. But yes, that should work with MMJoy2.

Richi Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 You don´t need sketch. Just upload the MMJoy2 firmware to the Arduino and you already have a HID device. Just physically connect the buttons and axes. 2

Biggus Posted March 27, 2023 Posted March 27, 2023 After flashing the microcontroller, yes. But you'll need to have diodes for each switch to avoid ghost presses, and doing it like this severely limits your number of inputs. Spend some time reading the wiki and working out how you want to configure your hardware. I generally prefer to use shift registers but a diode matrix is fine too. I'd strongly suggest switching to an STM32 and using Freejoy though. MMJoy2 is no longer in active development and can be quite confusing to configure. I liked using it, but Freejoy is vastly more intuitive and the developer is generally active on the forums for another WW2-centric sim. 1

I noticed a lot of praise for Freejoy too, which confirms my suspicions that MMjoy is no longer actively developed.

I have three of them plugged in as different controllers and I have more buttons/joysticks than I can handle! Worth a try, sure.... Saludos. Saca111 1
