Re: Anyone Playing Mechwarrior 5? Need some advice!

I use an SCG, and a virpil throttle, with MW5. I started out with trying to create the appropriate HOTASMappings file for both, but ended up running into a lot of back & forth trying to get the AXIS lines right, and then some problems with axes sticking and not responding. What I ended up doing ...

Re: Brand new MKIII Gunfighter SCG buttons don't work

I assume I should be looking for something like “BlackBox_MK3_GF_SCG_vXXX.vkb Uhm not sure but I think BlackBox_MK3 will be for the future BlackBox. For the moment we have _BlackBox_ which I guess is for the "old" orange BlackBox and _BlackBox_MK2 for the new black BlackBox. So I believe ...

Re: MechWarrior 5 config file

I started on mine, and kept running into problems with the axes getting stuck/stopped responding. I ended up leaving the HOTAS file very generic (just the list of buttons), and then using Joystick Gremlin for mapping the axes. Even with the additional trouble of getting Gremlin (and vjoy) installed,...

Re: Mac OS Support for SCG Grip

Do I need Windows 8.1 or 10? For FW and reconfiguration what software do I need to do this. Do you have a procedure for this? Have any other Mac users tried this with no problems? This information is important when making purchasing decisions! I boot my mac into windows for some games, and the VKB ...

Re: MCG Gunfighter Mk.II Pro latest stable firmware?

Can I get a link for the official versions? http://ftp.vkb-sim.pro/ Under Programms and Firmware. Now I'm confused, how come that one is the official link when in the Gunfighter's booklet is indicated this one: https://vkbcontrollers.com/?page_id=4609 ? Different companies I think? http://ftp.vkb-s...

Re: SCG-Essential Feature!

I like that distinction of zero-order and first-order, that's really useful. And for completeness (and philosophy; this is really unrelated to the SCG topic), I've observed that zero-order and first-order can also be independent of the actual control device. I've seen flight-ish games where the mous...

Re: New dual Kosmosimas, issues with getting set up

New SCG here; I've run across DevCfg hanging the first time I run it after plugging in the stick, and in those cases I've found I can I run Wizzo, then quit it, and then DevCfg seems to run okay. I primarily use the stick on a mac, so I don't often plug into the windows machine for devcfg, and so I ...
