YaDeLi - "Yet another Device Link for IL-2"

[Tailspin45]

I couldn't figure out how to remove the axis assignments in the HOTAS section, so I just deleted them from the config file.

However, all controls go full nose down, full left wing down, full left rudder, almost like runaway trim. I can center them using ALT + LEFT, + RIGHT, and + Z, but after any movement of the axis they go back to full throw.

The files you requested are at

Thanks in advance for your efforts to solve this problem. Very much appreciated.

Good.

Strange, because:

Could you please let me have a look at the number of usb game controllers and their respective IDs (use JoyIDs)?

Hi Tailspin45,

one thing is unusual (no offence meant ): There's a "__MACOSX" folder in the archive - do you run IL-2 within MacOS (with Wine)?

In any case, the symptoms you describe may result from
- Your hardware is sending funny stuff (test with "usb game controllers", properties)
- YaDeLi is receiving funny stuff (it uses DirectInput, DirectX)
- YaDeLi is sending funny stuff (however unlikely that is )
- IL-2 is receiving funny stuff (network garbled, proxied, )
- IL-2 has some inner conflict (controller shizophrenia - but you've solved that apparently)

We would have to check that step by step.

I sent the screenshots via Gmail to my Mac, where I needed to do something unrelated. Zipped them there, and that's where it picked up the OS X artifact.

In any case, I solved the problem. Seems I'd forgotten to configure the flight control axes, and they were all linear instead of centered. So, of course, the rest value was the extreme end of the range and thus full control throw.

Never underestimate how dumb a user can be. Half the people in the world are dumber than the other half, but I may be proof that it actually is more than that.

Thank you for wasting your time figuring out the stupid things I did.

Everything is working great now, with your help. I'm grateful, as I've said, both for a very useful program and your prompt help.

Tailspin45,

no need to pour ashes on your head - computer work is 1% trying to do something, 98% trying to find out why it doesn't work the way expected, 1% getting it finally done.

Just glad that it now does work.

Happy flying!

unfortunately you cannot and I cannot either: TD introduced the radiators as axes in 4.10 (or was it 4.11?) but didn't gave access to it via DeviceLink.

I mentioned that in the wishlist long time ago, but it hasn't made it into an update yet - and with all they're doing for us it would be rather preposterous to complain, neh?
