Mouse look
« on: July 24, 2003, 04:19:04 PM »
I wanted to set up my views to use mouse look as an experiment, but can't seem to get it to work.  Am I missing a step or two?

I go to Setup>Joystick>Select Joystick and highlight 'view pitch' in AH controls, select 'mouse' under Joystick and 'y axis' under Joystick Input, and press "set input". Then I highlight 'view yaw', select 'mouse' and 'x axis' and set input.  I press the "apply" button.
View mode in cockpit is then set to Direct Mode Pan.

No dice.

In fact, the numbers in the 'Joystick input' window in setup don't register movement when I move the mouse.  The number for each mouse axis in the window stays static at 32767.
All other axes of my HOTAS register movement when moved.  
(BTW, I use CH Combatstick, ProThrottle and ProPedals, mapped through the CH Control Manager, so they appear in the Joystick window as CH Control Manager Device 1, 2 and 3 ... plus the Mouse.)

The mouse works fine otherwise in-game.  The game just doesn't seem to recognize it as a joystick input.

So I'm stumped.  Any clues?
