That seems logical.

That would be an interesting development.  Probably would result in some pretty epic meltdowns too.  It's a problem I hope we get.  2000 new people on at once would make for an interesting arena.

All logging in in the same day.  All with their views unset.  All with different hardware setups and it being the first time they've ever had a joystick on a computer...  On laptops.  Half with onboard Intel video, half with M class NVidia cards.

Not a problem.  Direct them to the BBS Help section, tell them that Skuzzy will promptly answer their questions.

Once AH3 is one of the 15,000 games on Steam things will be pretty much the same.   :old:

Just like it is now with AH3 on Oculus.   :aok

To be fair most steam gamers have decent setups, quite different to the "why won't my 386 run AH 3 I have a 3DFX card!" crowd we usually see here.

One thing I seem to have a problem with when I download the new game is, The elevator and aileron are backwards in default.

Anyone else notice this?

Maybe there should even be a tutorial on how to map your stick first.

It can be very challenging for new players to even get off the ground.

since I don't do anything special with the elevators or ailerons it doesn't matter to me if they are backwards, in others I don't use them. I just fly the plane. wouldn't know when or where to use them anyway.


but if your having a problem with this  report it in bug reports

Yeah, I mean at least the last 5 times ive reinstalled the game, it was been backwards. Not sure if it has been looked at, but I recently re-downloaded the game last month and the axis were backwards.

I assume you mean you have to invert the axis in settings to make it work properly?

Check your Windows Game Controller properties for the joystick. AH should see the same axis assignment that Windows sees.

I made AHIII work in steam for the overlay, ease of access, etc... I'm happy about this... I often just open steam to make sure games are updated-then I can just start them up when I'm ready to game later.
