VKB-SIM

Howdy, I'm having an issue with my NXT stick and my throttle switching device numbers after a reboot/shutdown. I can't just remap the functions because the pitch and roll axis switch to the mini-stick on the throttle. The game I'm playing is IL-2 Sturmovik 1946. The stick is a VKB Gladiator NXT. The...

Howdy, Just wanted to let you know I got the firmware updated on my VKB Gladiator NXT. I used a Windows PC to do it. Apparently, the VKB software doesn't like Linux at all. It will install on Linux, and it will boot up and run, but it won't talk to the Joystick. At least not for me. Anyway, problem ...

Same exact results.

As an aside, the stick works perfectly on a Windows install, so I'm reasonably certain the problem is with my Linux/Wine software.

It looks like the screenshot I attached to my previous post didn't make it through.

The stick is a "VKBsim Gladiator NXT R v01.11 Lite", according to the Bootloader.

I was attempting to flash it with this file: "Gladiator_NXT_v2_14_A.vkb"

I recently upgraded my operating system from Linux Mint 19.2 Xfce to Mint 21.1 Xfce. Now my Gladiator nxt pro doesn't work properly. Not sure if it's a problem with the stick, or the new OS, or the new version of Wine. So, I tried to update my firmware just in case that might be part of the problem....

Howdy, I only play one game that uses flight gear, and that is IL-2 1946. I only play one other game at all, and it is not related to flight sims. It's a D&D based game. After many hours of testing in IL-2 1946 I don't have a definitive answer to the problem. But I have made some discoveries tha...

When it happens, the joystick testers outside the game recognize the stick, (I have one from VKB and one from Thrustmaster, and I can use them while the game is running), and all the functions work properly within the testers. It's just inside the game where it doesn't work. There is a joystick &quo...

My wife's laptop is running Win 10. I can try it on that I suppose. Before I do that, I thought I might try unplugging the throttle and the rudder pedals and see if it does it on my Linux box with just the stick running. I'll give that a try and see what happens.

Thanks for the timely response, fallout9. Changing the USB ports doesn't seem to have any effect on the situation. The only thing that works is to "escape" out of the game, and then reboot the game. It comes back online when I do that. If it wasn't for the fact that I lose anything I've do...

Howdy, I received a Gladiator NXT premium R for Christmas. Occasionally, when I pause my flight sim for a minute or two, when I come back it's as if the joystick went to sleep. None of the axes or buttons will respond at all. The keyboard still works, the mouse still works, the throttle assembly axe...
