Example Joystick profile needed

Gman13 · #1 10-02-2011, 03:57 PM

I've just recently reinstalled the game & am eager to get back into it, learning little by little. But one of the things i'm mainly having problems with itself is the controls. Now i was able to "somewhat" map the controls (had to change quite a few things to my liking) but don't think i have alot of things set the way they need to be. So can someone post their control cfg (for joystick, view settings, etc) so i can use it as an example. I'm using a saitek cyborg evo & sadly enough i did have a example profile at one time but lost it due to reformatting recently.

I have a similar request/question:
For my Logitech G540 system, the force feedback feels very strong at higher speeds and after playing for a long time it hurts my wrist. The strong resistance also make small adjustment and precision aiming very difficult.
Is there a way to adjust the resistance level?

For my TrackIR, the head movement in game is not as smooth as many videos I have seen online. Is it a frame rate issue? or is it my trackir setting issue or else?
Thanks!!

Two very tough questions.

I believe due to the multitude of control setups and personal preferences you will have to get very lucky if someone can post a config that will work for your particular controls and in a way you are comfortable with it.

My controls were not automatically recognized by the game, nor did I expect them to be autoset, had to try things out and set them until I was happy with what I had. The good thing is you can do this directly while flying, just have to hit "escape" and go to options.

To have the controls as customisable as possible for multiple usb devices is a very nice thing, the only "drawback" is of course you have to work and set everything yourself.

As for the force feedback, I am sure you have a controller option under windows where you can set the FFB strength? For fine movements maybe you can play around with the ratio that translates real stick movement into game stick movement in the controls-axis-panel.

My track ir does work very smoothly in flight, in another post I read, and this is my experience as well, track ir does not negatively influence fps. If you have low fps to begin with you may perceive the track ir movement as not smooth of course. Is there any stuttering in the game if you do not use track ir? Maybe when you look around new textures have to be loaded, making the headmovement seem jerky as well?
I am using the default track ir profile with speed 1.6 and smooth set to 30.

thank you!
next time i'll try set them to your numbers and see if it gets better.

If you mean Logitech G940, here are my "Specific Game Settings" (Logitech Profiler 5.10.127):

Overall force = 50%
Spring effect = 100%
damper effect = 85%

Enable Centering Spring Strength = unchecked

x-axis deadzone = 8%
y-axis deadzone = 8%
