VKB-SIM

The names that show up in the device manager are from the inf file that was used to install the drivers for that device. Since VKB controllers just use the generic windows controller drivers they are named as such. It may be possible to create a dummy inf file that will give it it's proper name in t...

I tried that firmware. Went through the whole Default, Find & Config, Calibrate, change a setting and Set dance 4 times and it worked perfectly every time. Also to test the other issue I had with 2.11.5, I rebooted my computer with the THQ powered off via my USB hub and turned it one after I got...

I was using the previous official version 2.09 (shows as 2.088 for the USB controller)

I've seen the same behavior with the new firmware with my THQ with the stand alone USB controller. After resetting to default sometimes it takes several tries of pressing Find and Autoconfigure for it to take. Then sometimes the message that you need to calibrate comes back up after going through th...

It's been a long time since I've put any effort into using a joystick with War Thunder so It might be a bit different now but I doubt it. So yeah sorry this is more of a rant post then real help. Back when I first started playing the game like 7-8 years ago I made quite an effort to fly with my MS S...

Deadzones still don't seem to be working on 2.09.0 XT for me on my Gladiator K.
Also maybe filtering isn't working either since I'm seeing the values on some axis jumping around quite often.

Seems that 2.085 XT also had this issue.
2.071 XT is the last version I have saved that works properly .

Thanks again. This one worked without changing anything in my profile.
Although I went and changed my config to use the logical layer anyways since that seems to be the preferred way of doing it.

I've run into a few games that try to use both my gladiator and xbox controller at the same time which was sometimes causing issues.

It took me a little while to figure it out but I found that as long as I centered the throttle dial on the gladiator it wouldn't interfere with the xbox controller.

Yup that works. It's going to take some time for me to figure out how things work with the NG firmware so for now I'll stay on 2.007 until I have time to completely redo my profile with the new firmware.

Thank you guys.

I have a Gladiator K Right hand Premium. I have all the hat switches mapped as hats instead of individual buttons. This get's around the 32 button limit in some games and for games that show hat numbers it helps me know which control something is bound to. All firmware versions I tried past 2.00.7 h...

Almost certainly a false positive.

Microsoft is the only one on Virustotal that flags it.

Sure the hats are arranged differently than the F-16 grip and you don't have the pinky paddle but you have all the hats and buttons on the premium version that you need to get everything from the real grip bound in DCS and the placement is close enough that it doesn't really matter. Granted I'm pret...
