Matt18C Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I looked in the gui manual and the description just repeats itself. Could someone please elaborate on what happens if this is checked or unchecked. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorX Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 AFAIK, this works with the Thrustmaster Warthog. I do not think it works with other HOTAS. It's purpose is to give the Warthog user the ability to have the game mirror the switch positions of the controller as you enter the Sim. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] "Is that you John Wayne?.......Is this me?"

effte Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Should work with any old DX switch hooked up to an equivalent cockpit switch. No reason for it not to. If I have a DX switch which is active when flipped hooked up to EAC ARM, the simulator can look at it on startup and set the EAC switch accordingly in the simulator regardless of if the switch is on my TM WH, custom switch in a home pit or a switch on a $50 El Cheapo joystick from the supermarket. In DX it is on or off, not labelled "TM WH". ----- Introduction to UTM/MGRS - Trying to get your head around what trim is, how it works and how to use it? - DCS helos vs the real world.

TigersharkBAS Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Doesn't work with my panel I'm afraid.

WarriorX Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Yes Andrew, it works for me. Just so we are clear, enabling this means the game looks at the Warthog switch positions and then gives you a chance to sync the switches before you go "live" in the pit. It should work with any Warthog. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] "Is that you John Wayne?.......Is this me?"

Not quite sure what you mean. My understanding is that it should set the switches in the sim to be the same as the positions set on the Warthog. But you seem to implying the opposite?

tusler Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 yea it works really good when you start a mission in the air and you have the throttles set to off and the fuel switches wrong.

WarriorX Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Ok, let me try this again, sorry for any confusion. Normally you start a mission and it drops you in the pit, everything goes live. Without this feature, you get what Tusler describes. With this feature, you get dropped in the pit on a semi pause. The cockpit switches are set to what the mission designer wants them at, and then you sync your HOTAS switches to sync with the Sim. The world outside the pit is paused until you hit the Pause/Break key. After the keypress, everything goes live...pit, switches and outside world.
