Joystick null zone

[50.cal]

Hi,

Simple question :

Is there a way to adjust the dead zone in the game parameters?

Thanks

try my custom .cfg settings

Im quite comfortable with this settings for allround use.

class JoysticksList
{
class Joystick1
{
guid="50698240-3037-11DE-8001-444553540000";
name="Saitek X52 Pro Flight Controller";
offset=256;
isXInput=0;
sensitivity[]={1.4,1.7,1,1,1,1,1,1,1.4,1.7,2,1,1,1,1,1};
mode="Custom";
};
class Joystick2
{
guid="5F60CEC0-3325-11DE-8001-444553540000";
name="Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals";
offset=512;
isXInput=0;
sensitivity[]={1,1,1.5,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1.5,1,1,1,1,1};
mode="Custom";

Im nor sure if this does something but I changed this also:

controller="Default";
sensitivity="High";
vibrations=0;

You do not mention what joystick/HOTAS you use but I just spent some time tweaking the sliders under control options for my TM FLCS + TQS and also set up for analog collective (don't forgett to remove the "old" keys) and use my thumb pot for rudder. Tweaked analog collective made quite a differens for me and flying AH-6J, AH-64D etc. NOE in Takistani valleys is great fun...

My .cfg settings below...

class JoysticksList
{
class Joystick1
{
guid="7BD15400-5FF3-11DC-8001-444553540000";
name="StickWorks SWF22";
offset=256;
isXInput=0;
sensitivity[]={0.72299737,0.60619628,0.99696201,0.99696201,0.49 270412,1,1,1,0.72299737,0.60619628,0.99696201,0.99 696201,0.49270412,1,1,1};
mode="Custom";
};
};

For dead zone, you can adjust that in your options/controllers in game.

For sensitivity, and to see what the values are for, look here: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Joystick_Sensivity_Adjusting

I don't have any specific dead zone sliders just inc/dec sensitivity, can you elaborate?

Yes, you're right... I thought I set my joystick sensitivity in the profile

joystickSensitivity[]={0.5,0.5,1,1,1,1,3,1.5,0.5,0.5,1,1,1,1,3,1.5};

and then tweaked the dead zone with the in game settings to get this

class JoysticksList
{
    class Joystick1
    {
        guid="15A5AB50-4BEF-11DF-8004-444553540000";
        name="Logitech Extreme 3D";
        offset=256;
        isXInput=0;
        sensitivity[]={1.0290596,1.0388578,0.49139321,0.47311547,1,1,1,1,1.0290596,1.0388578,0.49139321,0.47311547,1,1,1,1};
        mode="Custom";
    };
};

But after reading what you said... you're right. So then what's the first one for? I could have sworn changing that made a difference too...

Thanks, now I'm confused.

According to the wiki first value is the positive for X-AXIS.

I know lot's of people fly helis using the mouse and keyboard (and some are really good at it) but to get the right feeling I need my old HOTAS and if you have an old joystick laying around I recommend you to try it (and tweak the sliders to your liking) - IMO it beats mouse/keyboard handsdown escpecially if combined with TrackIR/FreeTrack.

No I meant the 2 different set of values in the profile. I change the first set in the profile (mainly for Throttle, 1+ and 1-). I have (thought so at least) those set to 3. There is no option for that in game, so that is why I assumed it was different.

I do use a joystick.

I was just misunderstanding a few things... I still learn something new everyday here. Sorry for the confusion.

[KeyCat]

Ahh sorry, guess I missunderstood you.

Yes, I'm aware you are using a joystick, I was mention it for anyone who likes flying but haven't tried joystick/analog collective/rudders.

As far as I know, there is no "dead center" setting ingame or in the .cfg's.

And ArmA II and OA completely ignore my logitech settings for dead center.


If someone has a solution, I would be very pleased!
