Haven't messed with ROF in a while and just returned after a pretty long absence.

I have somehow managed to totally screw up the joystick button assignments and my TrackIr 5 settings.

Can't get the view centered, etc. and I want to reset the joystick button assignments and view assignments. I see where it says "default" and "reset" but what do I have to do to return all of the head and joystick button assignments to "default" as I don't see anything happening when I click on these options.

I would like to save the "curves" I've programmed that deal with control inputs for rudder, elevator, etc. as I didn't manage to screw THOSE up-yet!!!

If necessary, I will redo the joystick curves because the sim is pXXXXXg me off right now and I want to get it back up to speed. If that's the only option-what would be the best way to set everything back to default!!!

I used to be here quite a bit but apparently old timers disease has kicked in and the "data" got flushed!!!

Thanks guys.

It is the f10 button. You need to first go into your settings and remap f10 to be shift f10 (so you dont hit it again) then close the game out, go into your game folder and find the cockpit view files and delete them. (or at least that used to be how you did it)

The problem is that hitting f10 sets the default center view to where ever you are looking. But it also conflicts with a default trackir key. So you hit f10 thinking you are messing with trackir and then your whole view system is fubar.

You might need to go to the official forums and search for how to reset the default cockpit views. I think they are in /data/luascripts/snapviews

found this
Quote:
Check your snap view files in /data/luascripts/snapviews (they can be opened with Notepad). The first row of numbers is the one that's important:

Quote:
cvc = -0.000, 0.000, -1.000, -0.052, 0.000, 0.000;


The first two numbers affect camera rotation (up and down rotation, and then left and right rotation. You typically want these numbers set to 0.000 (or -0.000, it doesn't matter).

The next three numbers cover, in this order, the following: front and back movement, up / down movement, and then left/right movement.

The last number affects camera zoom. You typically want that set to 0.000 as well.

All of these numbers can be set to anything between -1.000 and 1.000. Probably, though, your issue is with the first two numbers. Setting those to 0.000 will eliminate any preset camera rotation.

Sorry for getting back so late Master but thanks for your response.

Got the first part of my "problem" fixed and now working on the second--I can't get any "external" views.

No matter what combination of keystrokes I try with what appear to be the default settings, I can't get "out of the cockpit" at all. I can't get outside to see my aircraft or ANY aircraft, balloons, ground objects, etc.

Any ideas on THIS one? ;-)

Thanks in advance,

Copterdrvr
