1. DDz Quorum Sid Posted April 20, 2008 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 TF for that....! I had a mysterious bailout in the week and put it down to me still having it programmed somewhere in the X45 stick software and forgeting it was there...had a look and couldn't find it so shrugged shoulders and left it - put it down to gremlins. When it happened tonight it peed me off 'cos I was shootin' the cr@p out of Akula and was having a ball... I had a warning something was up because I had a brief glimpse of the "bailout" view of the plane before it went back in cockpit. Moments later I was dangling in my chute and cursing.... I had another look at the stick programming tonight and found the problem. As per the game some of the weapons involved the "ctrl" key - so does bailout. On the pinkie, and for all 3 modes, I have engine controls incuding the extinguisher which is keyed to "E" - operated by button 3. Without the pinkie, on modes 2 & 3, firing both weapons is keyed to "Ctrl space" and button 3. So, inevitably, the inevitable happened....whilst I pressed button 3 my little finger unintentionally squeezed the pinkie....and created the magic combination of ...Ctrl E. Needless to say my mapping has changed to avoid possible combinations and embarrassment...what a palava Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattler Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Well, at least you sorted it out, mate! I'm glad now that I haven't bothered to program my X45.....just assigned the basics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyKnight Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Damn Sid, you nearly gave me a heart attack! I thought you were talking about last night in SEOW, and that the glorious Luftwaffe had lost another A/C due to CTRL+E errors. Thank god you were only talking about co-ops/dogfights. PHEW!

1. DDz Quorum Sid Posted April 21, 2008 Author 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Sorry GruppenBoss, I should have been more specific...it was during dogfight/coops that the error manifested itself. Aaaaargh (that's how it's spelt Carl), stop twisting my arm... It was ok during SEOW, probably because I didn't fire my guns.......ooops....if I had it might have been different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
