th3flyboy Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Hey, I was trying to test out flying BS with a gamepad instead of a joystick, and I noticed something weird, when I requested a loadout, the maintnence would say it was done, but nothing was on the racks, I though it was just an anomaly and a fluke, well I was wrong, I restarted BS and started an Instant Action mission to test that the weapons work, well they weren't on the rack again, and when I tried to fire them, as they were coming up on the weapons part of the panel as on there, I fired, and immediatly my helicopter exploded. I tried again and the same thing happened. Anyone got any idea on this (no I have not modified LUA files). Right now I'm re-downloading the install files, as I uninstalled and HOPEFULLY that will fix the problem on the system, but I think this is weird that this is happening in the first place. If it makes any difference, the gamepad was an old interact axispad usb gamepad.

bumfire Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 I have heard of that happening before to people, no weapons visible and the helo explodes when they are fired, but its only happened to people who have tried to make other helo's/planes flyable by altering some files which in this case you said you havent done. Thats the only time I have heard of your type of problem, I havent heard of it til now on a standard BS install with no mods/tweaks done. hmmmm, strange.

The only files I may have altered may have been the moniter setup lua files (trying to set up multi monitor in vista without triplehead2go is a pain in the ...), that's it. Weird thing is it only started happening after i put in the gamepad...
