RafaPolit Posted June 25, 2023 Posted June 25, 2023 Hello guys! Really enjoying the F-15, thanks! I have encounter an issue that is half reported elsewhere, but not the exact same issue. My main issue is with the different key binding options for the Weapons/Mode Switch option and the fact that, with the CYCLE option, the Throttle (at least visually) and the Mission "triggers" are not being triggered when using the CYCLE bindings. My problem is somewhat related to the following thread, but not entirely. My main bug report here is about the Mode state with the different binding options. - If you bind the AFT, CNT and FWD switches, the value is actually "set" and you can see the switch move in the throttle. Most critically, the training missions also ONLY recognize this situation as valid to move forward (hence the essence of my report). As noted on the link above, this allows you to move from GUN to MRM without going through SRM, which is not correct (but, again, that is not my bug report) - If you bind the CYCLE AFT and CYCLE FWD, the HUD more or less responds as expected, but the switch on the Throttle is not cycling through its states, and more importantly, the detection mechanisms used in training exercises DO NOT recognize the mode as being set. Therefore, you just "correctly" entered MRM with your bindings via CYCLE, yet the training mission is STUCK because it's expecting you to activate the mod which is already on. - The las mode is for always-on switches which my HOTAS has none with two positions, so it's useless for my setup Hope this is clear, I'd be happy to provide more feedback if needed. Thanks. Best regards, Rafa. I'm Dragon in the Multiplayer servers.

This is a bit of a gripe for me as an awful lot of HOTAS on the market don't have spring-centred 3 ways available (or certainly not many of them) yet they've set the bindings up assuming you have them available e.g. the radar elevation axis on the F-16 I think this applies to. I tried binding three discreet buttons for the SE weapons selection on my Virpil CM3 with limited success. In the end I mapped a single button that cycles through the three available selections.
