Great Hint -> how to use joystick effectively

[Larska]

Allright, so I used this program succesfully like 2-4 months ago.
But now after formating my C drive, and installing BF2 again.
I cant get it working.

I think the problem is in settings that determines what joystick I am using.
Cause I cant find my logitech joystick from it.
I got Actions, Internet Explorer, Sidewinger gamepad and Winamp in my list.
All XML files.

Can anyone help me?

Can someone help me configure this uber confusing piece of software?

First off, if i understand correctly, the moment you launch joystick to mouse, you no longer have joystick correct? I mean, there is nomore joybutton one, or joy axis X, it all gets converted into either some mouse action or keyboard action?

In my FH i have the airplane controls set only to joy axis, but it doesnt work with joy to mouse. If i set the mouse axis as well, it acts weird, somehow choppy (with axis set to absolute mouse movement).


I only want one thing, to set my point of view hat (the little joystick on the joystick) for mouseview. The thing has 8 directions, and id like each one to do left control + absolute mouse movement in 0,45,90,135,180,225,270 and 315 direction.

I've havent got a clue how to do this.

First off, this forum is almost dead. The FH2 Devs (and most of the active members) have moved to http://fhpubforum.warumdarum.de/index.php. I suggest you check us out over there.

Next, onto your problem... What exactly is your problem? From what I gather, I think you accidentally configured Joy2Key to convert your Joystick movements into mouse movements for flying. You shouldn't do that unless BF2 doesn't recognize your joystick at all. Go into BF2 or FH2 and set your flight controls how you want them with the Options menu. The only thing is, you should leave "MouseLook" as "Left Ctrl". Other than that, set all the flight controls (pitch, roll, throttle, weapon controls, and whatever else you want on your joystick) to your joystick. Then check out this topic: http://fhpubforum.warumdarum.de/index.php?topic=321.15 on the new forums. I started you off at a post by me, which really just quotes something from here, probably in this very thread. If you still have trouble, keep reading the thread until you come to more of my posts helping other people and follow them. If you still need help after that, just post in that thread and I'll try to help you out some more.

EDIT: Actually, this post might be the most helpful: http://fhpubforum.warumdarum.de/inde...22723#msg22723. Step by step, how to configure Joy2Key to let you use your hat switch for Mouse Look in BF2 and FH2.
