Taikodom Joystick Config

GrimGriz

Go to the config folder and find default.ini. At this point, I should tell you to make a back up in case you screw it up.

I found this part, added the missing buttons, and assigned them to stuff I thought I'd like. I'll be rearranging them later.

Code:

[input.COMBAT_FLIGHT]
MOUSE_LEFT="SHOOT"
MOUSE_RIGHT="SECONDARY_SHOOT"
MOUSE_WHEELUP="NEXT_CANNON"
MOUSE_WHEELDOWN="PREV_CANNON"
LSHIFT_MOUSE_WHEELUP="NEXT_LAUNCHER"
LSHIFT_MOUSE_WHEELDOWN="PREV_LAUNCHER"
E="ROLL_CW"
Q="ROLL_CCW"
JOY_BTN_0="SHOOT"
JOY_BTN_1="SPECIAL2"
JOY_BTN_2="NEAREST_TARGET"
JOY_BTN_3="NEXT_TARGET"
JOY_BTN_4="NEXT_CANNON"
JOY_BTN_5="PREV_CANNON"
JOY_BTN_6="ACCELERATE"
JOY_BTN_7="DEACCELERATE"

If anyone figures out what the POV hat positions are called, please let me know

Hornet

Are you able to control up/down/left/right with the joystick instead of mouse? I've got the other main controls mapped to the x52, but cant figure out movement and throttle.

Tstrike3

I map my up down left and right movements using the SST software .... I have a TKD profile setup and it works like a charm. No need to alter files or anything.

Shogon

would you be able to share that profile for SST?

GrimGriz

Yeah, this is more helpful for people who lost their joystick software

ZeroZ95

By the way, I saw the answer to the POV button on the TDK forum (if anyone else is looking to config this way).

Quote:

lift_liftdown = hatdown_0
lift_liftup = hatup_0
next_threat = hatright_s
previous_threat = hatleft_s
strafe_strafeleft = hatleft_0
strafe_straferight = hatright_0
target_next_enemy = hatup_s
target_previous_enemy = hatdown_s
target_untarget = hatdown_c

Although that thread seems to have all the buttons/things-they-do backwards. Dunno if that matters or not.

GrimGriz

Strafe?

ZeroZ95

Does strafing work? I can't log in because my updater still won't work (brand new install of XP, brand new install of the latest TDK build, brand new Java, brand new Nvidia driver).

Same story on my laptop, so I tried uninstalling AVG (the only thing the 2 computers have in common besides my network) and nada. Next step is to eliminate my network I guess.

Holpon guys don't seem to have any ideas beyond deleting my TMP folder and trying again. :/

Also the 800mb download is still on 379 version.

GrimGriz

Well, my AVG has never caused me any problems if that makes things worse for you.

ZeroZ95

Does strafing work?

GrimGriz

Maybe, but I definitely do, so I can't test strafing for awhile.

ZeroZ95

It wasn't AVG. It wasn't my network. Both are pretty easy to eliminate from the equation. I still see 379 as the downloadable installer. TDK is blaming my ISP's cache (which sounds unlikely to me). Do you guys see the new version on the download page? Does strafing work?
