unclemiller Junior Member Registered: 07/26/09 Posts: 65 Loc: Kentucky - United States	Hi, I have a new Cougar HOTAS and would like to know how to install it along with TARGET. Do I need to install the original software that comes with the Cougar and then install TARGET? I am guessing that I need the Cougar CCP installed so that TARGET will recognize the Cougar? Kind of new to this even though it's been around awhile. Thanks,

I am planning on getting the Warthog next month and would like to thumble around with T.A.R.G.E.T. to get some practise. Don't know if T.A.R.G.E.T. can also load profiles into the Cougars memory, that a "readable". _________________________ Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450, 4x 2.66 GHz, 12 MB L2 Cache Total, 1.333 MHz FSB, 45 nm (@ 3.62 Ghz) ASUS P5QC, P45 chipset, FSB 1.600 MHz ASUS Silent Knight II CPU Cooler PALIT GTX570, 1.280 MB DDR5 RAM, PCIe, dual DVI/HDMI TOSHIBA 37" LCD Win 7 Home Pro 64bit 240 GB Corsair SSD Force Series 3 Sound Blaster X-Fi Fatality Gamer 2x4GB GEIL DDR3 Value RAM ANTEC PSU 750W TrackIR3 Pro HOTAS Cougar with "Uber NxT" gimbal mod SIMPED F-16 Pedals SAITEK Throttle Quadrant pair of leather gloves

Dimebug Member Registered: 09/18/10 Posts: 103 Loc: France	no, Target is 100% using DirectX when the Cougar use is own stuff. the big difference is : When launching a Cougar Foxy made program, this one is compilled and sent to the Cougar. Then everythings (Joystick, mouse, Keyboards) is coming from the COugar When launching a TARGET configuration, the configuration is compilled, send to a Windows Target Service/Driver. Everything coming from the Joystick (only DirectX stuff) is interpreted and sent to Direct X or Windows keyboard/mouse layer. _________________________ Guillaume "Dimebug" Leleve
