Post: Looking for a few mods... Flight Stick, Steering Wheel, Other Issues etc...

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I am looking for a few mods. If they exist please direct me towards them if not this is my request to have them made.

1.0 Flight Stick / H.O.T.A.S. Support

1.1 Flight Stick mod - I use a Saitek X55 Rhino H.O.T.A.S. for various flight games and would love to be able to use it. As of right now I CAN map the buttons (using joy2key and the like) and everything and have it work BUT the flight stick itself is analog but being mapped to digital buttons therefor tilting the stick left slightly is no different than tilting it all the way. If there is a mod (or just a way of getting it to work properly) that gets this done please let me know.

1.2 Also since the stick I have also came with a throttle it would be nice to be able to use that as well but that seems a bit more complicated since well if I press the throttle forward and leave it there I should maintain that speed but in game the throttle is either digital on/off and maybe pressure sensitive on game-pad. It would be nice but I don't care about this one as much.

2.0 Steering Wheel and Pedal Support

2.1 I use a Logitech G27 Racing Wheel for for racing games and again would like to be able to use it. This suffers from the same problem as the flight stick I can map digital inputs not analog so the steering wheel is a glorified way of pressing A and D. If there is a mod (or just a way of getting it to work properly) that gets this done please let me know.

2.2 Also it would be nice if the gas pedals would work and be pressure sensitive. I don't really know what the stick shift could be used for but... maybe someone else will think of something.

3.0 Other issues

3.1 I know there are UI mods that I haven't tried but I would like to be able to customize what weapon is mapped to what num row button. Example: I use my sniper rifle more than anything else I don't light it being num row 9 cause its a bit out of the way for me.
3.2 I would also love to be able to change whether I see a particular gun when scrolling through my weapons with the mouse wheel. If I have bought a better gun I no longer want to see the other one OR at least let me favorite the guns I like so they show up first. Example: If I am in a car I have to use the mouse wheel to change weapons I end up scrolling through all the pistols I own to find the one I want.


Please direct me to any already existing mods that my fulfill one of these requests
OR if a mod does not exist to fulfill one of these requests
Please direct this to a mod creator or someone who knows one so we might one day see these requests fulfilled.

As I play the game I will eventually come back and update this because this is a game I actually like to play and therefore notice all the little issues.

And to anyone who read this completely and/or possibly sent this around Thank you and kudos to you.

Code
Banned
As far as I know, the joystick/steering wheel mods aren't possible, as the game isn't coded to use these (someone please correct me if I'm wrong though)

for 3.1, that woul only be possible if using button monitoring and making the game think your pressing 9, when you're really pressing something else

Lastly, the weapon wheel mod, as far as I know, this also isn't possible, although you can drop weapons by pressing triangle :p


Hope I helped Smile

I don't have a triangle on my keyboard...

by as far as the joystick why couldn't someone create a mod that allows someone to spoof a 360 controller? like make the flight stick mapped like the right stick on a controller that would give the player analog control and the game would think my flight stick is the 360 controller. Same for the steering wheel but the wheel turning would be the left stick on the controller so i can turn left and right using analog control.

The other stuff is more 'nitpicky' and I can deal with or find a way around.

So I actually found a small program that does all of this perfectly bar 1 small issue that has a work around.

You must login or register to view this content.

basically it just lets you turn any direct input controller (steering wheel, flight stick, off brand controller) intro a 360 controller/xinput controller. so steering wheel works perfectly and flight stick is so close to perfect but an axis cant be mapped to a button or vice versa. So when I turn my flight stick for yaw I cannot map it to the left/right bumpers for it to work the way it should. But its way closer than I was.

EDIT: just wanted to add that the program I found is actually really awesome because you can also turn any controller into any other controller. like I can make Need For Speed think my flight stick is actually a specific steering wheel controller. and by specific I mean if a game such as NFS automatically recognize certain steering wheels like the logitech g25/g27 you can make the game think you have that controller. Its honestly just kinda cool cause it solves a few weird issues me and a few buddies have. Awesome little program.
