The mouse thing seems to be a little bugy. If you have a mouse button on your joystick and then use your mouse-mouse button the joystick button will stop working.

Check your assignments. It does not work that way for me. Try setting target to send left and right mouse buttons and remove key assignments in AH

I have mouse controls disabled in preferences, would that be it? Im going to try it, but if that isnt what you mean...please translate! :uhoh I do appreciate the help, im just not a computer whiz :bolt:

Sorry. Target is the thrustmaster software for setting buttons. There are left and right mouse clicks that can be assigned to joystick buttons in the keystroke settings in RV mode.

This happens to me too, but it seems like it happens randomly, not after using my mouse. Really it only seems to happen to me when I'm trying to end a sortie. Sometimes the joystick button will function again after the sortie is ended, sometimes I have to move to another field to get it working again.

Biggest issue I have is that it radiates like lazers back at me, its really bright and fatigues my eyes something fierce :mad: Its probably just me? My eyes are a point of contention as the MS really affects my eyes the worst. I am having a brightness issue while using Vr and cant find anyway to dampen it. Seems like the gamma if turned up to 3.0 on monitor, I run 1.2 usually

I finally figured this one out. On the clipboard, go to "View" in the preferences-options then uncheck "disable the mouse" or something like that.
