Hello everyone, i need some support: Bought and installed WOFF 2 today successfully. When it comes to the workshop and my input configuration, the problem starts. I use: - Joystick: Virpil Constellation Alpha on a Virpil WarBRD base. - Throttle: HOTAS Warthog Throttle - Throttle: Saitek / Logitech Throttle Quadrant - Pedals: MFG Crosswind Pedals - Trim: Saitek / Logitech Trim Wheel - Track IR Problem: When i am in the input configuration and want to bind the joystick axis to elevator or ailerions, it beeps and tells me "only joystick axis can be assigned!" WTF?! The input shows me correctly that the X-axis and Y-axis move, when i move the joystick, so the axis are recognized. I tried with all other devices unplugged, only with the joystick plugged in. I use this configuration with WOFF 1, IL2 1946, IL2 Great Battles, FSX, P3D, MSFS, DCS without any issues. Why does WOFF 2 not allow me to bind my usual joystick x- and y-axis to the ailerons and elevators? PC WIndows 10, 8600K, 32 GB Ram, RTX 3070, etc... Any ideas? Regards, Jan

Bought it here in Switzerland in November 2020, for around 679 swiss franks at my local electronics dealer. Wanted a 3080 but then decided now or never, this 3070 was in stock. Price today, at the same dealer: 1299,- swiss franks. Unbelievable.

@Fubat
thanks for the idea. I never needed a 3rd party tool for any of the mentioned other flight simulators - always configured in each game options. So no, not yet tried and i want to find other solutions first, before i install another tool just to correct some other issues...

On an unrelated note, but under the same topic, the game seems not to recognize my trigger(!) of all buttons on my Thrustmaster 16000. Everything else is recognized just fine! Anyone else had this?
The older I get, the more I realize I don't need to be Han, Luke or Leia. I'm just happy to be rebel scum...

Works fine for me - same joystick (and I didn't use previous config file nor even go to the joystick settings yet - worked fine out of the box for me).

Yeah, it's weird. When I pull the trigger, it is not even recognized that the button moved. I tried mapping fire to a thumb button, but then I was trying to blip and fire with the same thumb, which was proving to be untenable. Will have to go back to the spacebar until I get it worked out.

Rick, maybe by some wonderful coincidence your trigger went west while you were installing BHaH2. Have you tried if it is functioning in any other sim? I couldn’t get my rudder bound to my pedals. I’ve copied the line from WoFF and pasted it into BHaH2 key binding file in notepad. It works fine. If you still have the old file saved, you could try and copy it too. Fingers crossed.

I actually think it is this as it doesn't seem to be working in other sims either. I think the switch is broken... Thanks for the tips, though guys!

Update:
The hints regarding a button stuck was the correct one!
What was wrong:
The VIRPIL Constellation Alpha has a 4-Step-Trigger (!), means a lever switched forward (button 1), switched backward with contact to the trigger (Button 2), then the trigger itself (Button 3) and a second step on the trigger (Button 4). If this lever is forward, it sets button 1 to "down" --> Means its pushed all the time --> Means, when i want the game to recognize an axis, the button permanently sends data and the game does not "see" the axis im moving... When i bring everything in the standard position and all the buttons are shown as "up" - then it works. So basically my fault with the buttons on my Joystick. Cant blame the game for it!
