Control sensitivity

I looked in all the config files and found nothing similar to the old 0,1,2,3,4,5 setup of the axes. There is some bit in there with decimal points but its only a few numbers and I have no idea what is what. Surely someone from 1C can chime in here and let us know what can be done. I have tried my hardest to use the sim with the controls how they are but it is just not possible. The more I play CoD the more I want to play 1946, at least the controls were configurable to the point where I was a serious threat in the air. Now I'm like some kinda invalid fumbling behind a bomber struggling to land even 10% of my shots... This really is the biggest issue I have at the moment. Further CoD use is suspended until I have a fix.

I am going to try a simple copy and paste from my 1946 config into the CoD config and see if the values are recognized at all. These entries in CoD will be placed under the same spot as the 1946 ones(rts_joystick).

The only thing under this in the CoD config is FF=0.
I copied and pasted this from 1946:

[rts_joystick]
X=0 1 4 9 16 25 36 49 64 81 100 0
Y=0 1 4 9 16 25 36 49 64 81 100 0
Z=0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100
RZ=0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 0
FF=0
U=0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 0
V=0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 0

I will test this now and report my results here.

OK, even with the RZ (rudder) axis values set very low it is still very sensitive.
Little to no change with this I'm afraid. If anyone comes up with anything new let us know!

Well, it seems possible that the above config edit did work, though not for all aircraft. The hurricane fells much more stable now but the spitfire feels twitchy as ever. I'm not sure exactly what is happening here, I hope someone with more knowledge of the games inner workings can fill me in.

I wish we had curves as we did in the previous game.

Mine is opposite, my axis are too slow! Can't figure it out..

This...

OK, I got it figured out! I was on the right track but what I failed to realize was that my 1946 was on a fresh install and I hadn't set up my controller for it yet. After I set up my controller in 1946 I went into its config file and sure enough the proper values were now in there. I simply copied and pasted from the 1946 config to the CoD one. Here is what it looks like:

[rts_joystick]
X=0 1 4 9 16 25 36 49 64 81 100 0
Y=0 1 4 9 16 25 36 49 64 81 100 0
Z=0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100
RZ=0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 0
FF=0
U=0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 0
V=0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 0
1X=0 1 6 10 15 22 33 44 58 72 100 0
1Y=0 1 6 10 16 23 31 43 56 73 100 0
1Z=0 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 0
1RX=0 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 0
1RY=0 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 0
1RZ=0 1 4 8 13 21 28 39 52 69 100 0
1U=0 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 0
1V=0 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 0

This, everyone, I have confirmed to work! You need the 1X values for it to work not the X values, the axes with the 1 infront are what windows uses to set the joystick sensitivity.

Perhaps this should be stickied so everyone can benefiet from this.
