CY6_Anubis Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Hi all, I´ve noticed that the in game settings in FC2 (patched to 1.2.1) does not work when I try to assign the wheel scroll (located in the throttle). This is the wheel that is usually scrolled with the index finger, the one that can be "clicked" too, next to the throttle hat. I want to assing it to move the antenna in horizontal, but it does not recognize the input. Anyone knows which option from the dropdown menu is the one for that control? Thanks in advace Female Journalist to Churchill: If I were your wife, I´d put poison in your coffee. Churchill´s answer: If you were my wife, I´D DRINK IT!
4c Hajduk Veljko Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 It is a bug. I run into the same problem and opened the discussion topic but nobody seems to be using the rotary to move radar antenna azimuth. When rotary (or any other axis) is assigned to the "Radar Horizontal", it is actually assigned to "Target Expected Range". And ther is no "Target Expected Range" on the list of axis (see picture below).

Panzertard Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Because the wheel is not an "axis" - you gents are looking at the axis setup. The wheel acts as buttons (btn 17 + btn 18 ) at least here on my x52. The mind is like a parachute. It only works when it's open | The important thing is not to stop questioning
Boulund Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 On my X52 Pro that wheel is just an emulated mousewheel via the Magic Mouse drivers (i.e. exactly what panzertard is saying; it is not an axis and will not be recognized as such) Core i5-760 @ 3.6Ghz, 4GB DDR3, Geforce GTX470, Samsung SATA HDD, Dell UH2311H 1920x1080, Saitek X52 Pro., FreeTrack homemade cap w/ LifeCam VX-1000, Windows 7 Professional x64 SP1.

CY6_Anubis Posted May 11, 2010 Author Posted May 11, 2010 First of all, Thanks to Hajduk for his quick response. And now... if my memory is not playing tricks, prior to the patch I had that setting working. By the way, if I leave the field blank "in game" and set up the x52 profile with the keycommands in the manual... it should work, right?

4c Hajduk Veljko Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 The OP is looking at the scroll wheel..Uopsss! My bad. I see now what he was talking about. Well, then yes, the scroll wheel is not an axis.

CY6_Anubis Posted May 12, 2010 Author Posted May 12, 2010 True, is not an axis. But prior I had it working all the time until 1.2.1 with radar azimuth Anyone has any hint?

thereminqblank Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 Are you using a Saitek profile? You could map the wheel up and wheel down motions to a key press, so that scrolling will move the radar azimuth. I currently have a profile that has the MFD zoom mapped to that wheel. "Unholy Roller" [sIGPIC]http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/images/userbars/A-10C_UserBar_01.gif[/sIGPIC]
Slayer Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 I use the scroll wheel for radar range increase/decrease. Initially I tried the 2 wheel axis for slewing the TD box but quickly discovered it is too slow and cumbersome to try locking up targets, especially in multiplayer when flying against real human oponents. I ended up going back to a hat for slewing :/ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] System Specs Intel I7-3930K, Asrock EXTREME9, EVGA TITAN, Mushkin Chronos SSD, 16GB G.SKILL Ripjaws Z series 2133, TM Warthog and MFD's, Saitek Proflight Combat pedals, TrackIR 5 + TrackClip PRO, Windows 7 x64, 3-Asus VS2248H-P monitors, Thermaltake Level 10 GT, Obutto cockpit
