I just replaced my files with the backup that I made and then verified the game cache through Steam. All is working well :-)

Steam version is out today :-) I installed the release candidate of the patch some time ago - will I have to remove that and install the official patch for it to work?

ARMA II: Combined Operations is currently on sale on Steam at 40% off: $17.99 USD I was able to resist the 20% off deal, but this is too good to pass. Hellooo Chernarus :D

My computer tried to tell me the NoiseControllers file was malicious. I told my computer I was willing to take that risk. Wow! The first time trial really got my heart pumping! Love the music too

Correct. In this state I can really only manage flight in the easiest difficulty :-(

Ok, I must have had that setting turned off last time. This will take some time, makes me appreciate your videos that much more. Yes, the collective has always been assigned to analogue. Otherwise it just flicks between 0 and 100. Thanks for the help!

Wow I'll definitely look into free track! Thanks :ok: I just went to their website and selected "Cyborg", "Evo Force", "Windows 7 64bit". http://www.saitek.com/uk/down/drivers.php During normal hover - I can't remember if I tried auto hover or not. I was just playing and I figured something out. When I'm flying in a straight line, the more I increase the throttle, the more the chopper wants to pull back and to the right.. is this normal? Haha it never happened when I played before, and means that I have to push hard forward and left whenever I increase the throttle. :391: I switched to the easiest difficulty and all these issues went away (except for the throttle still jumping up in small increments instead of running smoothly).

HI. Unfortunately after re installing the driver and calibrating on the game controller panel, things got worse haha. Even though it was calibrated perfectly, TOH thought my stick was back and to the left when it was resting neutrally, which made flying quite a challenge (although the rudder was back to normal). I know what you mean about having to move the stick to all corners and running the throttle from 0-100 before playing, as I have always had to do this. I am wondering if my stick is failing :( I would usually use that as an excuse to go get a new one, but I just don't have the money at the moment. BTW I'm very jealous of everyone with TrackIR - being a poor uni student sucks. One thing I've noticed since re installing the game is that even with auto-trim on, my heli spins to the right during hover. Isn't the auto-trim function supposed to stop this?

Hi hon0. I clicked default for the curves and throttle 'dead zone' went to 0% anyway. Not sure what you mean by "bind your joystick axes on the "analogue command"". If you are referring to throttle, I have done this already. There is no analogue command for the axes, only the throttle. Still moving with stutters in small increments. My rudder also just went ballistic - extremely sensitive and arcadish. I could rotate my stick and the helicopter would instantly flick to the side and, if flying in a straight line, it would happily continue on the original path (just aiming 45 deg to the forward direction). If I returned my stick to neutral, the helicopter would return to forward flight as if nothing had happened (no swaying or anything). It was quite comical actually, I'd rotate the rudder back and forth and the chopper would look like it was at 10x speed and about to lose control, then I'd stop and it would instantly correct itself (auto-hover off). Very weird - and something I would attribute to FD, not the joystick. Anyway, I'm going to reinstall the joystick software/drivers and 'repair' the game files with Steam. I just want to be able to fly.. in the meantime I'll have to satisfy my needs with watching your Chernarus run on YouTube :notworthy: Anthony

Thanks hon0, I'll give it a go and get back to you

Hi, I recently upgraded my computer, and since doing so my joystick (Cyborg Evo Force) will not work properly in game. I had to reinstall the drivers and software, so they are all up to date. When I originally played the game with this joystick, I didn't need to change anything, just assign commands to the buttons. The problem now is that the throttle jumps in small (and sometimes large) increments (on the power dial on screen) instead of being smooth. The axes also don't feel right, so I figured the joystick just needs calibrating. So I did that. In game and out of game - nothing. I tried changing the sensitivity and dead zones (which actually made it slightly better because the throttle originally only had about 4 increments) but still is not fly-able Can anyone help? Regards, Anthony

Haha yeah :cool: and the fix works. Just go into the in-game joystick calibration settings and click the 'return to default' button, which just returns them all to the middle. That should make it normal, and you can adjust it from there if you still aren't happy :)

I actually have the same issue. I loaded the game up earlier tonight and found the controls were super sensitive to the point where the tiniest input threw the chopper into a dive :eek: (and there were only about 3 levels for the throttle; on, 3/4 and off). I couldn't find a joystick calibration menu in-game, I'll have another look now..
