NEWBIE BS2 1.1.1.1 Questions

[rjsagel]

Hello,

 

I seem to be having a few "misunderstandings" with my latest version. Just bought and installed BS2 1.1.1.1. After reading a lot and flying a few "setup"

missions on my controls (X52 stick, CH pedals, DELL XPS Win 7 64 bit) I cannot seem to figure out the following:

 

1. How do I assure that I am in a certain mode (game or sim)?

2. I cannot get the AUTO START CHEAT to work in SIM. Works fine in GAME

3. I cannot assign a JOYSTICK key to the CHEAT in SIM MODE

 

Maybe the CHEAT does not work in SIM Mode.

 

Last, is there a complete manual for start up available for me to follow and learn? The real challenge for me is starting up cold and dark. The one I found is not complete. There is a lot to learn in the SIM version.

 

Thanks in advance to all- cheers and merry XMAS

Search in the PDF for engine start, you may have to hit enter a few times to get to the right bit. Documents startup. To make sure you're in sim mode go into options and then hit the sim preset. Same with game. No idea about autostart, don't use it anymore.

Quick question is KB ''cheat" startup sequence still exist with BS2?

Of course it exists (in GAME and also in SIM), check your key bindings...:thumbup:

HELLO and thanks -

The problem with the key bindings is my X52 Saitek. I switched to an old MS Sidewinder and all of the bindings work fine.

 

What stick is suggested for the BS2 system by users? I might as well get one that will work with my system

 

Thanks and cheers and Merry XMAS to all

I'd say T flight Hotas X is minimum and you can go all the way up to TMWH. I'd have thought that the X-52 or 52 pro is probably the best to go for balancing cost and functionality.

Hello,

 

It is the best that I have used so far( my X52) but it does not let me use the key mapping correctly.

 

Maybe someone out there knows what the problem may be.

 

Cheers,
