Moxica Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 As title say; Double clicking on the assignment does nothing. It seem to be de-activated. HALP!

MAXsenna Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 Can you show a screenshot of the controls settings window?You do select the correct column for the Warthog I assume. I make that make all the time. Cheers! Sent from my MAR-LX1A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAXsenna Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 Here, Max! Thank you (Its the same for the HMCS) I'll be home in 30 minutes. But seems correct from what I can see. Sent from my MAR-LX1A using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried from the main screen, without entering the module? In any case, you have mapped it correctly. Is your issue that the switch doesn't work in the game? Did you do the cold start correctly? That's always my mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moxica Posted May 28, 2023 Author Share Posted May 28, 2023 (edited) First try was after entering module. Screenshot is from the main screen, as I just did it for this forum thread. And I doublechecked just now; It is Disabled/greyed out/inactive. Edit: It worked on the A10A But I can't assign engine start buttons either.

Moxica Posted May 28, 2023 Author Share Posted May 28, 2023 (edited) But yes, there are four fields that are "greyed" out in that picture: Keyboard and joystick for the "EAC 2 pos..." and Throttle EAC arm on and off. (They are merely a notch less brighter blue) I have cleaned, slow repaired, just to find there are more of those: APU start, Engine start.. plus a few more. I have reset, and loaded default cathegories to no avail. And nothing happens when I right-click.

Why you can't double click where you have already configured button 24, might be due to the fact that the Warthog comes preconfigured for the A-10C I/II modules. I've heard this also affects the TM MDFs, and you have to delete the default joystick file to remove the bindings. Not that I understand why you'd want to, as everything should be set correctly by default. The A-10A is an FC3 module and works completely different, as I know you know. Cheers!

LeCuvier Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 The command "EAC 2-pos Switch : ARM<>OFF" is available for the Warthog throttle, and when you double-click that binding field I'm sure the assignment window will open. Cany ou confirm? The command is not available for the keyboard for a good reason: It's a command that works only with a maintained ON/OFF switch, just like the EAC on the Warthog throttle. Keyboards and the Warthog joystick don't have such switches. For the same reason it's not available with the CH-Pro pedals. The commands "EAC Arm" and "EAC Off" are not available for the Warthog throttle because that device has the maintained ON/OFF switch for the EAC function. Which command is available for which device is controlled by the files like "default.lua", "Throttle - HOTAS Warthog.lua", "Joystick - HOTAS Warthog.lua". The Warthog throttle and joystick are defined by their dedicated "....LUA" files. Game controllers that don't have a dedicated .LUA file can use all commands defined in the "default-lua" under "...\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\A-10C_2\Input\A-10C_2\joystick". The keyboard can only use the commands defined in the "defaultlua" under "...\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\A-10C_2\Input\A-10C_2\keyboard". 2 LeCuvier Windows 10 Pro 64Bit | i7-4790 CPU |16 GB RAM|SSD System Disk|SSD Gaming Disk| MSI GTX-1080 Gaming 8 GB| Acer XB270HU | TM Warthog HOTAS | VKB Gladiator Pro | MongoosT-50 | MFG Crosswind Pedals | TrackIR 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moxica Posted May 28, 2023 Author Share Posted May 28, 2023 (edited) Yes, the "EAC 2-pos Switch : ARM<>OFF" reacts to doubleclick. But that function is not appropriate. I would like to use button 24 and 24 off. I do not understand any logic that will disable that? ..and the entire unit? Que? :) Edited May 28, 2023 by Moxica ASUS ROG Strix B550-E GAMING - PNY GeForce RTX 4090 Gaming VERTO EPIC-X - AMD Ryzen 9 5900X - 64Gb RAM - 2x2Tb M2 - Win11 - HP Reverb g2 - Oculus Quest 2 - Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS - Thrustmaster Pendular Rudder - 2X Thrustmaster MFD Cougar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's exactly the way it should be. You could add the commands for ARM and OFF to the file "Throttle - HOTAS Warthog.lua" and use Button 24 and Button 24 OFF. It would then do exactly the same thing as the existing command "EAC 2-pos Switch : ARM<>OFF". Seems pointless. 2 LeCuvier Windows 10 Pro 64Bit | i7-4790 CPU |16 GB RAM|SSD System Disk|SSD Gaming Disk| MSI GTX-1080 Gaming 8 GB| Acer XB270HU | TM Warthog HOTAS | VKB Gladiator Pro | MongoosT-50 | MFG Crosswind Pedals | TrackIR 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just pointing out how the "greyed out" is looking in the picture. Those fields are "greyed out" which is a Windows term. DCS does this with a different color nuance. 6 minutes ago, LeCuvier said: Why is that function not appropriate? It's exactly the way it should be.

"Up" represent both functions. "Up" for arm, and "Down/Up again" to turn it off. ..or wait a minute.. Hmm.

Moxica Posted May 28, 2023 Author Share Posted May 28, 2023 (edited) Please move along. Nothing to see here.. [embarrassed smileyface] I'll be..
