Eshark Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Hello Guys Ive after a lot of grovling,and ass kissing to the missis got hold of a Warthog (being subserviant from time to time to get what you want is a good thing ).Now my problem is that after 12years + of flying with the Sidewinder forcefeedback 2 Iam having problems with response curves for a none force feedback stick.Iam sure the principles of the self centering stick are similar to all so does anyone have any advice on how to set up the stick for a good response.I fly fast and love tight turns ,snap shots and performing the impossible so a response curve that emulates that kind of flying would be much sought after.So back in the real world a good setting for normal combatg flying would be good.Any help would be much appreciated.By the way this Warthog is an awesome bit of kit and I advise all the guys with a missis to follow my lead and grovel it will pay off in the end your self esteeam will be restored once you get hold of the stick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gec Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 ~S~ Eshark, i have a Warthog. curves are adjusted in the Target software that u've got with the stick. On the page 13 of the manual it is described how to do that. here is a part of the page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eshark Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 Thanks gec yes I have looked at that but I was thinking more of the plug and play side of things and direct input to the game in the response settings there I understand that.Iam afraid I have the pc skills of Hommer Simpson,soooooooo understanding how to use the GUI,and script editor in TARGET is beyond my T-REX way of thinking.So SIMPLE is the word of the day when trying to explain pc stuff to old Eshark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eshark Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 In your opinion gec does the stick perform better through the target software,as opposed to the plug and play option ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gec Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 basically no. only thing is that with pnp u can assign only 32 buttons. so much of the throttle switches are not going to work for you. All Axes should be working. When in game click hardware and there u can set your curves for each axis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eshark Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 Ok thanks for that explanation gec 32 buttons is enough for me,and I do have some response input from my last stick I think its gonna be a case of modifiying those until I get a good feel for the stick.I have only had it about a week and a half so more usage should get me used to it it did cost me my qualification to Joint-Ops and the top gun compition but thats life next year I will be ok thanks for the info I feel a little more confident now that I know the stick performs just as well in pnp,the buttons I can live without for il2 usage 32 is enough suppose if I start usining the A-10 SIM then I will need to learn how to use the software Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 For the DCS A10C you have no need to assign ANY buttons or switches. Everything works as a real A10 stick. And the Thrustmaster VDU units also work (well the buttons do the screen is a clear piece of plastick that you can put a picture or tiny LCD in) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eshark Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 Ordered Crash I should have it by the end of the week .I must say I have never really got in to the fast mover side of sims although I do have lock on gold.I thought if Ive spent this much money on the stick I may as well get the game it was designed for who knows I may get hooked on fast jets as well as ww11 stuff thanks for the help guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadAim Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Damn son, you must've done some serious grovelling to come out with a piece of kit like that! I won't be of any help with the stick, but I had to post up my admiration of your grovelling skills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
