Problem mapping Thrustmaster Warthog Axes to il2

[illegalBeagle]

Hi, got a new Warthog stick, been setting up a profile with Target. One problem is although I can assign joystick and throttle axes in the game HOTAS section before I 'run configuration' of the Target software with no problem (this is DX mode or equivalent?), once I run my profile configuration of Target software, the game suddenly does not see the axes. If I try to assign them in game in the HOTAS section, the game does not see them. Out of game, the Thrustmaster device analyzer sees the axes movements fine. Programmed button presses seem to function fine in game.

I don't know if this is a problem with the joystick or the game. My previous sticks had no problem recognizing and assigning axis inputs.

Any help appreciated.

You need to run TARGET before entering the ingame setup setting axes up.

TARGET actually removes your hotas and recreates it as a different virtual device and this new one is what you need to map axis for.

Got me seriously confused setting up Falcon BMS, been there done that

theOden: hmmm, you know I thought I had been doing this, but now that I try it, it's working! I see that its behaviour is diiferent from the Cougar that it is replacing in this respect. Cheers man!

Hello again, Do you start Target before you start the game?
