    Project G42-200 StarLiner

    Cockpit seating Really looking forward to trying this baby out! Only problem is I can't seem to change my cockpit position to the left hand seat, I always start in the right hand so can't see some of the controls properly. Standard CTRL+Arrow keys work in other addons, but not the G42. Any...

    Problem Vtol Take off with DeltaGlider from Cape Canaveral

    While *possibly* not too realistic (heh, it works anyway!), you can get it to go on full tanks on Earth with the complex flight model: Enable RCS Rot, and fire up the hover engines. Pitch up, the combined effect of the RCS and the hover is just about enough to get it to pivot on the main wheels...

    Hardware Separate Main Engine Throttles?

    Worked out a workaround for the throttle problem with Fly-By-Wire: Create a third virtual joystick, map the slider to the throttle axis and map the actual joystick's x and y axes to the virtual ones. Tell Orbiter that's the main joystick and let Fly-By-Wire handle the rest! Not ideal, but it...

    Hardware Separate Main Engine Throttles?

    I tried this for a while a few years ago, but didn't get anywhere. Midi-OX was seeing the input, but nothing else was. Dug it out again with the new laptop now I've finished uni for the year, then stumbled across this link. Absolutely brilliant! Had to reprogram the mixer itself manually (the...

    Hardware Separate Main Engine Throttles?

    Damn. Thanks though, I'll have a look around. The joystick concerned isn't actually plugged into the computer at all at this point. I've disabled any joystick on the Launchpad page, but it's refusing to clear this setting. All the other controls (retro, hover, RCS lin etc) are able to forget...

    Hardware Separate Main Engine Throttles?

    I had feared that was the case, thank you both for your help though! Any rumours of anything in development at this point that you're aware of? Richy, I've had a fair bit of luck with Fly-By-Wire both now and in the past (used to use it with two joysticks for ROT/LIN modes) and it seems to be...

    Hardware Separate Main Engine Throttles?

    Hi all, Returning to the forum after a long break (so long I forgot I had an account!) and funnily enough for the same reason I signed up last time! I've acquired a BCF2000 mixer panel, and have finally had some success getting it to control Orbiter using GlovePie and PPjoy (queue a happy few...

    Game Controllers... I like sliders!

    Dear mcduck I managed to get hold of one of these from my dad (after he gave up trying to use it for music!) and finally managed to get it to do something, output data to MIDI-OX, program controls etc. I've been trying to do pretty much what the guy in the other forum did, i.e. use it as a...
