Flying Fixed wing with mouse and keyboard

The linked website is for a program which allows you to use things like XBOX360 controllers on your computer.

Don't see anything on that website that has to do with this.

Yeah but you can do some stuff with it. Probably the throttle control with the + sign, for example. Take a look at it. It's spyware free. I used it with Zooz Control for iTouch and had zero issues with it.

I don't understand what you're getting at. The program, from what I'm seeing on the website, allows you to map keyboard keys to buttons on your controller (WASD to directional buttons/stick, etc); it doesn't help to map keyboard keys to game functions or anything like that.

Try to set it up so it works in game. If you can figure out how to make that program do what we're talking about, come back and show us what you did.

if you wanna be a pilot then get a joystick as the mouse and keyboard just arent that practical

I have absolutely no problem flying with the keyboard using the arrowkeys and wsda, im playing this style since bf1942 so for allmost 8 years now.

I do not know which advantage you would have with a joystick?

precision....?

precision....?

on what? the arrowkeys? they are not that hard to handle softly, its not a flowing movement, but I do not need that when I'm flying over Kashan

I think there are programs that "emulate" a joystick using your mouse. So i'm fairly sure it is possible to have the scroll wheel adjust throttle with these programs.

it is best to just get a joystick and use that if you want complete cntro of your throttle and a joystick is great for not only flying i find that you can get great control over any vehicle with it as long as you set it up right.

throttle on joysticks dont especialy work with Bf2 model Jets..... the ISSUE is you cant just set it at a certian throttle setting and you fly at a given speed... lets say your throttle is full on or full off - YES you will either Fly faster or slower... but anything inbetween is Useless..

For example MY Joystick has a throttle and the only possible way i can use throttle settings is putit DIRECTLY inthe middle of the throttle any slight movment up or down on the throttle will cause the Throttle % to SLOWLY increase or decrese pretty useless but works to a point....

i can see that the DEVS could incorporate some sort of throttle control so that ... you Hold your W key you go faster and you hold your D key you go slower .. buuttt if you Tap your W key lets say ... 10 times up you go 100% full throttle or you tap it 5 times you go 50% throttle ?? that would be a nice Fix

It works fine on my flight control system...I have a Saitek X52, no issues I can throttle up to certain percentages easily.
