Flossy the good news is if all your buttons are still functioning on the Cougar you can make a Cougar box out of them which would allow you to keep everything in the TM TARGET family if you wanted to setup a profile for a single virtual controller. This would allow everything to function as a single device and still have all your favorites done right. Gunslinger did it and showed how over on the TM Warthog forums at Warthog World.

Sorry, you've lost me!  No idea what you mean by making a box or how it would help me....  :headscratch:  I have now removed the Cougar and replaced it with my husband's (Zeb on here) Warthog as he hasn't used it for months.  All the buttons are still working on the Cougar but neither me nor Zeb have a clue what you mean but we are both very keen to know what sounds like an interesting idea.

Here is the link to what I was talking about. I thought your husband might have seen it at some point since he got the Warthog.

Oh goodness.... why on earth would I want to do that?   :O  Thanks, but I'll pass on that for now.  I'm getting used to the Warthog as it is now and just tweaking the setup as I go along.  :joystick:  I've just mapped the switches within the game and they work well, plus it's easy to change things on the fly.  I'll let Zeb look at that link, it might be of more interest to him.  Thanks!   :salute    :cheers:
