Modifing Map Controls
« on: June 09, 2010, 02:27:06 PM »
After downloading the new patch, I am not able to modify my Map Controls.  When I hit "modify" the screen comes up and I can map any of the global controls, but it will not switch to any of the other controls like "flight", "vehicles" and so on.  The circle highlights but the global circle also stays highlighted.  In other words when I try to switch to flight the circle highlights but does not change the selections.

I did just purchase a Cyborge keyboard today, but I am not using the SSI program.  Don't know if this had any effect on it or not.


Any suggestions?

Are you trying to map functions on your keyboard or joystick?

It's not working on the stick, throttle quadrant, or throttle.  I just deleted the game and I am now in the process of doing a fresh download to see if that corrects the problem.

If you select an analog control on your stick (X-Axis, Y-Axis, Wheel,...), the other sections of the panel (Flight, View...) will not be available as you cannot map a button command to an analog control.

I can map the Analog Controls and the Global Controls.  It will not switch to any of the other controls for mapping.  In other words if its not an analog or a Global Command I can not map it.

I deleted the game and then reinstalled it and I am still having the same problem, but now I can't map anything other than Global or Analog, so playing right now it out of the question.

Here is what the screen looks like.  Notice how the two boxes, global and flight are selected.



Any suggestions?

Thanks

Oops.  That ain't right.

At least tell me if it is a problem with my system, or is it on your end.  I'm getting tired of downloading the game,    :D

Will be on the side lines until it's figured out.     :joystick:
