I started to use the software for calibration then scratched it, I just made sure the stick was working in it and Windows and AH took it right off the bat.

A lot of these stick software are not really needed, many times just the driver is needed....you're going to map it in AH.

I did have to invert axis in AH.

AH Settings folder will save your VKB mapping. I've already done it once.

   new computer.   same old VKB Gladiator stick.   Now in the game I can't get the stick hat switch to work.   the game didn't recognize the AXIS inputs immediately.   Anyone have issues with things like this?   I know nothing of any drivers that need to be added.   I didn't on my previous old,  old computer.    suggestions?

I never had those Issue's with my VKB stick and or Rudder the game picked everything up when I plugged it into my power usb hub.

  Im not so lucky as of yet.    Oddly,  in stick mapping I have 2 Y-axis,  2 X-axis and 2 Z-axis.   At one point I got the hat switch to work but the 3 axis all stopped and didn't accept new mapping.    I hate being the old man in the modern age of gaming

Thinking  back to my original AH setup with the VKB.  The VKB in AH control setup shows the hat as buttons, and a hat switch.  The hat switch setting are at the bottom of the list of buttons.  Use the hat switch settings.  i hope i remembered this right.
