Hog Hotas button question

[ScEBlack1]

Hello all, I setup my mic switch forward and aft as my trackir zoom in/out slow button and used my NWS button as a modifier to push along with the mic switch forward/aft for my original radio AM/FM buttons, BUT, it seems my NWS button does not activate the NWS function anymore when I am on the ramp and wanting to taxi which is a problem.

 

When I go to controls/HOTAS section and click to add and press the NWS button under the Nose Wheel Button section it says + joy btn3, were as default is joy btn4....very confusing. When I hit add and press the NWS button only the modifier section will show the key press and not the "key section".

Could someone who uses the TM Hog Hotas please send me the original "input file" so I can reset the control inputs? I copied my input file after I made changes so I cant get the original settings, thanks.

Yes thank you, but, unfortunately I saved my settings to the default Hog Hotas profile like an idiot so I need a clean input file or input lua for the TM Hog Hotas, please anyone help?

Attached zip contains the original Joystick - HOTAS Warthog.lua and Throttle - HOTAS Warthog.lua from the 1.1.0.6 patch, from Config\Input\Aircrafts\A-10C\joystick

If I may suggest an alternative setup. I use the paddle switch which has no default assignment as my TrackIR recenter. I use VAC (www.dwvac.com) for many voice controls including "Zoom In" and "Zoom Out". I have set my mic switch up as a push-to-talk button, allowing me to keep all default hotas hog assignments while still being able to control trackIR and other radio commands without using the keyboard.

After trying the current crop of voice command programs and finding that most will not work in game with Win7 64bit (most are older versions and may or may not be updated), I found VAC (Voice Activated Commands). Very nice program, not hard to program, very good voice recognition (uses Win7's VR program).

 

I have my own VAC file that mostly deals with the Comms menu (Easy Communications mode). I was wondering how you bound the mic button on the HOTAS Warthog throttle to the VAC software without using TARGET. I read one way was to Assign the middle button on the mouse scroll wheel in the VAC software as the mic on/off button, then assign that in the sim Controls Menu to the throttle button, but my mouse is not allowed custom assignments there. There is a way to modify a .lua file to allow additional Control Menu assignments, I did it in Beta4, but for the life of me I can't find that .lua file in the final version. :(

 

So, twig05...... how did you do it?
