Oh....after you kill mapped mode, be sure windows sees yer sticks, eh?
Political correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

well, I am using old analog CH HOTAS setup, left stick/throttle loaded with speedkeys, installed 2.081 fresh install.........in offline mode everything worked flawlessly...logged in to online TA and nothing worked except the views and other programmed keys ( that were keymapped )

1 quick run to the control/key mapper, fixed all inputs and all is well, took less than say 2 or 3 minutes tops.........all is good for this ancient stick :D

I use CH Manager to set all 3 controlers as "CH Manager Device 1".  No problems.  One little note that I noticed in the version change.  I had the micro-stick set as the controler for pan mode.   You used to have to hit a key to switch to pan mode.  Now, if I move the micro stick, it automatically switches to pan view.  Using the hat switch automatically switches view mode back.  Pretty slick.

That sounds really cool. How did you do that?

In direct mode your devices will be numbered in windows in whatever order you installed them. In mapped mode you have 1 device and it seems that AH has a better time recognizing the axis' correctly.


Same here bruno I use a CH fighterstick usb, a CH Pro throttle usb, a CH pro pedals usb, and a PI Xkeys Pro USB. originaly I had RPM maped to my throttle wheel on my stick and had to reverse it now it seems to be set right. I think it's a prefrence thing any way. All of my buttons are premapped in the CHCM and all my controller show as a single device "CH Control manager device 1". so I had to change nothing. My X-keys pro is in memory resident mode so nothing thier had to be changed.

Now I am not going to sit here and whine like a two year old, but the new patches have completely dumbfounded me.  I can not get my controllers to work no matter what I try.  Very discouraging.  Have the CH HOTAS set up.

Tried what Hajo suggested and can not seem to get anything to work.  Is there a way to reset all the stick mapping, / key mapping to a default?  When I tried to convert my stuff, it did not seem to work like others are saying it does.

I've never used anything other than the CH software - until now.  The issues presented by the new patch, coupled with a rare extra hour of free time, let me map the three CH devices directly through the AH2 setup.  I highly recommend this; your views switch noticeably quicker without the middleman CH software slowing things down.
