Good day Gents,
This is a strange one for me. Thrustmaster T16000M stick and CH Rudder pedals. I have been using this setup for years. All was well and good yesterday.

Fired up a campaign mission and all was haywire. I soon figured out my left rudder pedal was now my throttle! I have finally got the throttle back on the slider where it’s supposed to be but now have no rudder pedals. I have bound, unbound, set to default all for no joy. One other odd thing. I have to hit “B” like I am releasing the brakes to make headway. Never had to do that before. I am not using any mods. Everything works fine in WOFF UE. Any help is appreciated.

Strange, MFair! Did this concur with you installing the latest update? Did you change any of the USB ports that anything is plugged into? I have had settings change Gremlin-esque over the years in various games...it's never very fun frown

Rick, things went fine after the update. I have not changed anything. Checked everything my limited knowledge allows.

That's weird! For what it's worth, I did unplug my joystick once (once!) to use the slot for something else and when I plugged it back in, I must have done so in a different slot and only one side of the joystick would work. Putting it back in the original port fixed it...

Something must have changed there.

Maybe something was plugged in or moved in USB ports - one of your ports could have changed or stopped working (could happen if you plugged something new in that needs more power etc).

Or you may need to plug only the rudder controller in, remove ALL axis bound on all controls, select and bind what you want, save.Test in sim.
If it works, make a backup save too.
Then plug in the other controller and do the same.


May be worth checking out with the guys in this WOFF thread MFair

Thanks for the replies Gents,
I do not think it is a port as they still work fine with WOFFUE.
I did unplug and replug. No go.
Nothing was moved or changed on my system. Worked fine one day and didn’t the next. No updates etc.
There is one weird thing. Now, and only in WOTR, I bring up a mission or QC, fire up the engine, hit throttle and the machine will not move until I hit “B”. If that’s the way it’s supposed to be, it never was before. For what it’s worth, both stick and pedals work fine with WOFFUE.

I get frustrated real fast with computers so have to walk away for a few days. I will try the suggestions soon,
Thanks gents!

B is the brakes, before it's possible you had them on the toe brake or rudder by mistake.
For sure something changed. Send your woffkeys.xca
from C:\Users\<YOURLOGONID>\AppData\Roaming\OBD_Games\OBDWW1 Over Flanders Fields

and WOTRkeys.xca from C:\Users\<YOURLOGONID>\AppData\Roaming\OBD_Games\OBDWW1 Over Flanders Fields to support- I'll look to see if anything obvious is screwed there..

Just an update on my rudder pedals. As usual OBD gave me the fix to the problem. I will let Pol chime in here if he wishes as the problem and fix is above my pay grade. Thanks Pol, I’m flying and dying!
