Help with cougar/foxy programming LSHF/RSHF/LALT etc

[214FG-Widowmaker]

until now, Ive never had to use any LSHF/RSHF/LALT/RALT in my cougar programming.. but now.. it seems I must.

 

and Im having problems getting the proper key presses generated.

 

for example.  I was able to get the canopy opening using  {RALT c}  in the macro file

in the key tester, it generates  'ALT c' and everything is peachy

 

Now when I went to do the flaps UP command... I used {LSHF f} in the macro file

however, that only generates an 'F'  which would be the same as a simple     SHF F  command.

 

I also tried in the macro file :

Left_Shift = LSHF

flaps_up = f

 

then in the joystick file.. for the assigned button

I tried

{left_Shift flaps_up}

same thing.. capital F

 

any idea what to do with foxy with these    Left and Right    Shift/alt/ctl  keys?

 

 

thanks

I also had a problem with the flaps command and a few other in foxy so I just remapped them to the arrow keys and that solved it.

Same here with the flaps up command.  I just remaped it to 'd' and all is fine.  All the other commands work great so far, not sure why there's a problem with the Flaps up command.

I had a similar problem, and I found using the KU and KD commands work.  For example, in the .tmm file

 

Flaps_up = /T KD(LSHF f)

                   /T KU(LSHF f)

 

Pressing the programmed button the first time will hold both the LSFH and f keys down, raising the flap.  Pressing the second time releases the keys, and stops the flap movement.  Hope this works for you.
