MCG Pro Trigger A2B misfuntion after setting X/Y axis response curve

Postby CARTOK » Fri Jul 20, 2018 11:17

Hi there,

been successfully trying out the latest firmware and software updates related to my GF MCG PRO setup. However, since 1_94B onwards (I think, and the associated VkDevCfg release) I have an error/bug that seems to be easy to re-produce:

1. Download _BlackBox_GF_MCG_v1_94_D.vkb and VKBDevCfg-C_v0.87.84.zip
2. Patch the box.
3. Set defaults and save.
4. Run axis calibration and save.
5. Enable A2B and all MCG Pro trigger axis buttons, and save. - Notice correct indication on test page after restart.
6. Enable Eq for main X and Y GF axis, set up response curves to your liking, and save.
7. Notice on restart that all MCG Pro trigger axis buttons are permanently on.

Hope this helps. The issue started with one of the recent updates. Think around beginning of July.

Show, please, a screenshot of the A2B tab for the trigger. And in the future, try to apply the appropriate screenshots (they should be done together with the Alt key). This will identify and solve the problem faster.

Screenshot from A2B config page (including GF X/Y response curves):

Test page showing Button 25, 26 and 28 permanently active (unable to activate button 27):

Note: Until GF X/Y response curve is set, the A2B buttons trigger as expected.

Thanks for the screenshots. The temporary solution - is not to use the curve setting for the X, Y axes.

No problem. I've remapped the appropriate in-game buttons for now. Hopefully fixed soon.

Thanks for the response!

If you set Pulse, only 3 buttons will work. The curve in default (128) - all work.

Interesting, might fiddle with that. A quirky little bug... :-)

Tried again with the 1_94_F firmware from 13 August, no luck unfortunately.

Is there any expectation on when this might be addressed. Not a showstopper, although it limits some functionality.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Also tried reverting to the firmware/software referenced here http://forum.vkb-sim.pro/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=3206 without luck.

To add,
I found this to be the X axis only and of the response curve for it, the 40% adjustment from 128 is at fault. All other adjustments seem to work fine.

Tested v1_95_2 (along with vkbdevcfg 0.88.45):

Some changes; The A2B buttons for the trigger are all on by default now (rather than previous off), but not reacting to any axis movement.

Edit: Referenced the wrong firmware version.

Try the extreme beta version. And at the same time the configurator. Take here and here.

Apologies, I noticed now that I referenced the wrong firmware version. Fixed my previous post. To confirm, I tested the most recent firmware (1.95.2) and configurator (0.88.45).
