If you have a code already set up and I could just input my own button presses, that would be amazing.
-
not far at all. Every time I try it, I just get a huge list of error codes, I am using the Simple.cs file that came with the program 3.01 and am just at a stand still.

I was having trouble finding your question, people have been asking me questions using the ticket sytem mostly. I just moved so I don't have access to answer it directly right now. But you swould need to store the current state of the shifter and compare in the loop to the previous version to see when to send a button press. I think I might even have a bool already set up to say when the shifter has changed. How far have you gotten with this?
-
So, this might not get answered but I'll try. I am looking to assign button presses to the gearlever. For example: Gear state 1 presses f2 and so on. How would you do this? I have scoured the internet looking for the answer but when I try to implement it, it just doesn't work. I don't know any code and I doesn't seem that complicated for someone who know how to. Please, it would be awesome to be able to set my throttle in Elite with the gear lever!
-
I commend your efforts in creating an example for this. I do however want to point out that the source code is freely available on this site. Here is a link to the project's source code: https://sourceforge.net/p/steel-batallion-64/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/%20steel-batallion-64/Steel_Batallion_64_v2/

I figured it out I basically hard code a deadzone into the pov and it works like a charm now.
-
I will post my code to the ticket 23
-
I figured it out, try adding deadzones into the code to fix the sensitivity Here's what I did for the POV int thumbstickDeadZone = 150; uint Neutral = 36500; if (((Math.Abs(controller.SightChangeX) > thumbstickDeadZone) || (Math.Abs(controller.SightChangeY) > thumbstickDeadZone))) { joystick.setContPov(1,getDegrees(controller.SightChangeX,controller.SightChangeY),1); } else { joystick.setContPov(1,Neutral,1); }
-
If you open the exe with visual basic and use ILSpy you can get the source code of the program. Been messing around with it with not much success sadly. Its almost impossible to debug.
-
You can get the source code by opening the exe with visual basic and use ILSpy, there you can see the scale. Been trying to fix it myself with no good results, its almost impossible to debug. One thing though, if the get degrees is above 36000 then it goes to neutral.
-
So if you look at the raw data, it looks to be off and messing with the 360 axis, also keeping this in mind. I would suggest record the values of each quadrant using the raw data values in usb calibration. then have the program give out a specific hotas output (East = 9000) when the raw data reaches this value.

Please forgive my ignorace, but is there a guide for how one would go about doing that?
-
It's the default in Windows, as windows only recognizes like 8 axes and buttons. You have to modify the simple.cs file or create another one to set up the mapping you need.

hi im also having trouble with the new v3.1 . Once i try to run the Steel_Batallion_64_v2. after instaling the sbc installer-33.0.1.exe it opens fine but then you hit start and it gives me an error. ive attached the error for your convience.

mr name posted a comment on ticket #20
Thanks for the reply and the work! I'll definitely give it a shot. (I'm using a separate yoke indeed)
-
It worked, test the MWO_test.cs I attached above on July 2nd. However I wouldn't recommend this controller for Flight Simulator 2020. It's just not very precise. A good force feedback stick would probably be better or a yoke.
-
Hey, just wondering if it ended up working with win10. Im gearing up for fs2020 and really hoping to dust off those controllers. Thanks for the work of putting this together btw.
-
Did you download the latest, v3.1 and click on the SBC_installer_v3.0.1.exe? That should take care of installing things for you.

Wow, thanks man you dodn't have to do that whilst on vacation. That's why I shut up and was leaving you to it till you got back. Again thanks you though, thats really good of you to take a look anyway, ill try it out later when i'm back from work. As for the user error, I was refering to me, I was the error. I've got no meds for my ADHD atm so everything turns into a pickle quite quickly for me for the time being :P BUT i have after nearly a week of swearing and crying got SBC64 running, go me! Thanks...
-
I copied the code you had above and found the problem. It may have been referencing an earlier version of the program or it may have been a problem there all along, but there were several spots where the person was trying to get the state of a button and was not properly casting. If fixed those. I don't have mw5.cs, but I'm attaching a fixed version of the code you attached above. I tried fixing the indentation, as it was very hard to read and some of the code didn't seem to make that much sense....
-
I'm on vacation, but I doubt I do I'll have to check when I get back, what was your user error?

FYI I have it all working now, massive user error on my part. Sorry to trouble you! :P I dont suppose you have a working link for a mwo/mw5 sc. script do you?

Awesome I will give that a go when I get a chance later, thanks for your help so far though. If you have a PayPal I'd like to buy you a beer!

I'll have to try it later when I have access to my computer, but my guess would be that you might need to include Microsoft.DirectX; at the top. using System; using Microsoft.DirectX; using Microsoft.DirectX.DirectInput; This is just a guess based on the error.

Does the original simple.cs file work. Are you selecting the file through the menu? I'll have to carve out a bit of time later to try it as I haven't run it in years.

Right I figured out the c.s file I got (made for Elite Dangerous) made by CrackMouse, that you helped with isn't working. Or I am not saving it properly in a cs file but yeah your progrm is working fine now. Whilst I have you, do you know oif a good recourse to learn how to make my own button config file? If not no worries and thanks for your help regardless!

I haven't messed with this in years, however my first question would be does the change.cs file exist where the program thinks it's located. Based on your debug statement: C:\Users\fyrwo\Desktop\SBC_v3.0.1\change.cs

Kyle Biggs posted a comment on a wiki page
Can anyone help me out with a few questions? 1. Is there any way to illuminate all of the lights at all times? I see where to set the brightness on button-press, but I'd like to have them all lit (dim) when not in use. 2. Is there any way to animate the lights, or have any control over them? I'd like to be able to have them react to things like shift-states, or just add generic 'animations' to make things look more interesting. 3. Where can I find more example .cs files? I'm learning all I can by...
