Hi,

I am wondering if it is possible to use this sim with a Logitec rumblepad controller? I can use this controller with no problems in Flight Simulator X and IL2, but in both cases it is necessary to allocate a button to increasing the throttle and another button to decreasing the thottle. Can the same be done in ROF (allocate buttons to throttle), or is it madatory to have the throttle allocated to a slider / axis?

Good luck - I cant even get a simple Sidewinder II throttle lever to be recognized by RoF...

if anyone knows the juju to make that work I would be grateful

Hmm... try this, select the aircraft control you want to change from the main list:



Then select "change"



That will bring up the following window:



... where you wiggle the controller/axis you want assigned to that particular input. Be aware that bumping the mouse (or any other undesired control input) may ... WILL... put that controller's info in the box. You can select the "Cancel" button to return things to original.

I have the same problem. The game recognizes the input in the ROF Settings, but there is no control in game. I can change the inputs to any axis I want, also I have no throttle either. I then saved these new assignments to a profile.

The plane just rolls over and goes into a dive, no matter what you do to the JS.
Is there a entry in the .ini file to edit for the JS?

I am using Leo's BU0836 controller for my JS axis and throttle.

I am puzzles way the setting are recognized but there is no control in game.

Any ideas
