I bought VKB gladiator NXT flight stick because my previous cheap extreme 3D pro isn't good enough for this game. but once I plugged it, I had a problem with the joystick's trigger.

The gladiator NXT has 2 stage trigger. but EECH is defining the 2nd trigger as changing weapon, so I'm forced to waste a weapon when I try to change weapons, and If I accidently press the trigger too hard it changed the weapon when I didn't mean to do that.

I want to change or disable 2nd trigger as changing weapon, but I can't find anything in eech.ini or option to change the joystick input. how to change it ?

Sorry, I don't know that joystick. I only have Saiteks.


The term "necroposting" was invented by a person with no social memory beyond a year. People with a similar hangup are those o.k. with the internet being transient vapor.

There isn't any way to do that within the game. You'd have to use an external button mapping program, if there isn't one with your flight stick, something like joytokey might be useful.

I already use that software, and joy2key isn't helpful at all when I want to just disable 2nd trigger input.

is it not even possible to simply disable joystick button inputs in EECH ?

I would imagine that you need to use VKB's software to configure your joystick, I think this was always the case with any HOTAS devices and other more complex input devices. The app itself is "dumb" and it relies on what is sent to the app as such. When I was flying using my Saitek I had to configure keys in the Saitek app. That allowed me to customize all keys.

This might point you to the right place:

look at EECH.INI
this line removes the bindings of the joystick buttons
