Hi all,
I decided to contribute my joystick definion to this project because this stick
is not yet supported by FG. Feel free to integrate it into your repository.
Notes, Todo and Addendum:
- Pressing a button will bring up the gui.popupTip for the representing function
- Addionally Buttons 2 and 3 (Flaps Up/Down) and Buttons 6 and 7 (Elevator Trim
Up/Down) returns a value on screen telling the actual chosen settings
- Button- and Axis-assignment respect the use of civil planes. e.g. Button 0
(aka "Fire Trigger" is resetting actual view instead of firing off a weapon)
and Button 1 is reprensenting Gear Up/Down instead of alternate weapon
- Numbering of axes and buttons for Apple mac not verified
- Numbering of Buttons 6 and 7 respect how Windows Vista x64 (german) sees the
Stick. In Ubuntu (9..04) Buttons 6 and 7 must be renumbered to 4 and 5.
- Created and (mainly) tested in MS Windows Vista Home premium x64 (german)
- Name-entries respect the lack of Vista (german) to present the correct
joystick-name as desired for FGFS
- Representing also the jostick-name as provided in Windows-internal registry
entry
- Actually only wheel[0] (most times the nose wheel) is checked for pressure /
ground contact (=./gear/gear[0]/wow). In this case retraction of gear is not
allowed
- Technically an aircraft with multiple axis (e.g. nose wheel plus wing wheels)
can retract the gear as soon as the nose wheel is up but wing wheels are still
on ground ;)
- Feel free to remove the lines starting with "gui.popupTip..." if you are
annoyed by the messages while flying ;)
- Thanks go to all contributors of XML files to FG. All of you showed me many
ways on how to solve certain problems.
Cheers
Mike
