beardofbees Posted March 24, 2012 Posted March 24, 2012 Just bought and installed from steam. I am using a logitech 3d xtreme joystick. The joystick works in game but i want to remap controls and set dead zones. In the options menu i can map controls but when i am in the game the controls and dead zone settings are still on the default. If I go back to the options menu they are where i had them mapped. I have reinstalled and still can't use my mapped controls in game. Any help would be appreciated, it is probably something simple. Thanks
Slayer Posted March 24, 2012 Posted March 24, 2012 You are probably setting up the controls for "game mode" and playing in "sim mode" or vice versa. It's at teh top to the controls section 1 [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
beardofbees Posted March 25, 2012 Author Posted March 25, 2012 That is what it was. I knew i was doing something stupid. Thanks for the help.
johnson6048 Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 I have a similar issue as well. Forgive me if this was covered somewhere else but I found this while doing a forum search. I can map most controls just fine, in both Game and Sim modes but I seem to have a problem with the Throttle Up and Down for Game mode. It shows that Page Up and Page Down are the bound keys for both Game and Sim modes yet I can't place the Throttle to Automatic (Page Down X2) in Game mode. I can't move the throttle at all in Game mode. Any reason?? I'll continue searching the forums and reading the manual but hopefully someone has a 10 second answer for my 5 hour research.

Problem solved. I played around with the options some more and I figured it out. If you have Game Avionics Mode enabled in the GAMEPLAY section, then your Throttle (Page Up / Page Down) functions will not work even though they may be mapped that way in the controls section under GAME. Disabling Game Avionics will allow you to control your throttle properly. When using Game Avionics mode, all other controls seemed to work just fine in the startup procedure.
