Pyro, Hitech & Skuzzy,
I’m going to be nice & start this thread again, please could you sort out the issue with the mouse as I’m unhappy with what you have done.
I know whining doesn’t get you anywhere, so I’m going to try & be more constructive & polite just like Tex said. :aok
Thank you Kaz

IMO since a lot of guys seem to first start playing the game with a mouse, it would be prudent to make it as easy as possible.
With this in mind it would seem the pre-patch way of doing it was much simpler than it is now.
Also didn't require you to be a Zaphod Beeblebrox.

Second that motion!
Smiggy

thanking and saluting yourself for your polite and consice post will gain you no extra leverage in this matter, and quite frankly was undeserved.

Hehe, thats where PUMCTUATION COMES IN.
"I helped my uncle Jack off a horse" ;).
I think its meant to be
Thank you, Kaz, :) (Im not sure though ;))
And very politley (as I already stated in different threads about this topic) i agree. Why changing something that apparently worked fine and so making things more difficult for some people?
Im pretty sure HT did have something in mind besides just annoying a few players when he implemented the new system. And im also sure he already noticed the - errr..... unhappiness it created.... Im sure theyll reflect their options again and make the decision they know is best for the game, as they always do.

You better start now, once you get in you will see that nothing that you had set up will work, you will have to figure out how to remap all your settings. Was kinda of a bummer trying to drop bombs and not being able to select them let alone drop em. :aok

Yeap your right Schatzi :aok

Navajo read the README and allow yourself an hour to format your joystick, though it will likely take you half that time.
Personally I find the new IU much more user friendly. Just takes a few minutes to muddle through the changes.

I tried flying mouse last night, it wasn't exactly my most enjoyable time in AH. I was unable to set my throttle to my scroll wheel. Even though I could not set my throttle, I wanted to up and see how the P38 was performing. I had to use shift+= to go full throttle, and could not use the - key to throttle down. I used shift+- to make my engines idle. The only way I could fly around without being at max power was to lower RPM (which doesn't work too well when trying to fight). I was able to get a couple kills, but only through the opponent's errors. I got in a fight 2v1 I would normally have won, but I was having too much trouble with my throttle. I had to let go of the left button in order to throttle down, then I would just fly straight for a second while lowering throttle. Then when I wanted to change it back I had to let go again.
When I tried mapping throttle to the scroll wheel in tower, on runway my engines went to full power and only way I could lower power was to cut engines off.

Seems like you didn't calibrate the trotthle?Maybe?
-
oh my, i knew what he meant, damnit, you guys are as sharp as a perfectly organised 19th centuary teaspoon collection.
-
That did it. Now about holding down the left button to control the plane...
-

fired up the game for first time since last week..
got the latest update....
found out CO disbanded the squad..

its simple really
2.08 patch 2
corrects all issues with mouse
this NEEDS to happen:furious
-
Has anyone heard from HT/ Skuzzy or the other guy ( can't remember his handle) that comes on here from time to time as to why they made the change with the mouse?
I'm getting the distinct impression that this will be swept under the carpet.
A simple question should enatil a response, after all.
So please, can someone from Hitech creations come on here and explain why the change was made to the mouse? It's not rocket science wer'e talking about here..
-
The mouse was fine before, did they honestly think that changing the stick map and holding down the left mouse button was a BBQ worthy fix lol.
It’s a shame because I was having a blast this tour and my squad was back together and really doing well.
Anyway I see patch 2.08-1 came out, no fix there. Obviously they must not think that the issue is important enough, I wish someone from HTC could come on here and tell us that instead having us sit in the dark.

I play on my work's machine. Joystick not allowed. Can't use mouse now (I don't know why they've disabled it).
:cry
I got RSI on fingers so I can't hold down the mouse button continuously.
Yes - I'm an awful fighter pilot. Yes - it's partly (mainly?) because I fly by mouse. I used to enjoy flying anyway despite that - didn't mind being cannon fodder - now I can't fly at all.

Check out HT's post.

Well flying a plane isnt easy work. With this patch they made flying a bit more realistic. You now have to use multiple keys amd concentrate on other things.
Flying = work
;)

Great looks like they are going to fix this issue, sweet as :aok

Thanks MacTee - will wait for that
