Gladiator NXT and IL-2 FB Issues, Help.

Postby NervusTwitch » Mon Apr 25, 2022 12:33

Ive had my VKB for close to a year now but hadnt played IL-2 in months. Tried to play earlier and at 1st it wouldnt recognize the stick to even map controls. Got that working.

Now in game settings I can map controls but once in game nothing works, same for my VKB rudder pedals. My TM Warthog throttle and button box will work. I tried deleting the input folder and verify steam files but still nothing. Ive searched google and finding nothing else to try.

Just so everyone knows my setup its Gladiator NXT Pro, TM Warthog throttle, VKB rudder pedals, and a home built button box that I have used for years.
i7-10700k
EVGA 2070 Super
32gb ram 2TB SSD
Win10 Pro
IL-2 GB Steam

So anyone have any input or ideas to try?

Il-2 saves the names of USB devices you ever used to play the game in a file called 'devices', placed in game's data/input folder. It has only a limited number of devices and once you reached that number it will stop recognizing new devices. Delete some of the devices from there so you could make room for the new ones.

As I mentioned above, I did delete that file. It allowed me to then be able to map the stick to controls in the game settings but if I try to adjust curves or play the game nether of my vkb devices will do anything. Only things that work are my TM throttle and button box.

So far the game sees them,lets me map commands to them but nothing in flight.

Well I sort of got it working. Ive had to verify steam files several times and got them working some.
