Ch Hotas detected in Windows, but not AH
« on: January 13, 2006, 09:15:38 PM »
Hi all;

I had my Hotas setup nicely.  IN fact, tonight was the first time I was going to log in to give things a go.  That was until I went into offline mode.

I have recently had to disconnect my USB ports and after I reconnected my HOTAS, I cannot get two of my three devices to show in AH.  They show in Windows, in other games, but not in AH.

I have been messing around with the Ch Manager a bit.  Have a couple of maps that map all of the devices together as one unit.  But Im pretty sure these are all disabled because they are not showing on my windows joystick properties.

I have renamed the settings directory, reinstalled the game.  Disconnected and reconnected all three of my Ch devices...alll a bust.

Anyone have any pointers on this one please?

Define "showing": Won't register movements when flying, or not listed/changing in the Select Joystick section?

Hi thanks for the reply.  Showing as in detection during the joystick setup within the AH program.

Having said that...problem solved:
