could we get a YAW left and right axis (struggling to get g29 pedals merge axis)

[6FG_ST0N3DLAMA]

any help or info on getting my pedals to work would be much appreciated ive tried 3 different programs

[[DBS]Browning]

What issue are you having with them?

[6FG_ST0N3DLAMA]

the work around fix is to merge accelerator pedal and clutch to show as one axis so that you can use as yaw in game 
but ive tried auto hot key and ujr with no success

Not specifically,  but have read many testimony that this virtual* axis work OK.

Example: https://www.reddit.com/r/HotasDIY/comments/ixwa5x/using_logitech_momo_racing_ffw_as_rudder_pedals/

* I use VKB T-Rudder for rudder control, and use half of VKB Gladiator  twist axis (left) for create an new virtual axis for "wheel brakes", but set this axis in VKB DevCfg (firmware configurator) software.

Finally got it working, you need vJoy and UCR.
Issue is finding a vJoy that installs on newest W10 update (even if it gives error at the end of install) and a UCR that's compatible with that vJoy..
Now I got so many vJoy's and UCR's I wouldnt be able to tell you which versions I used, I do know that I'm using UCR v1.0
You'll just have to try various vJoy's till you find one that works, then try all the UCR's you can find until you have one that works with the vJoy you have installed.
I don't think the vJoy or UCR this guy used worked for me, but it's a good and quick guide without 45 mins of sponsor ads or sh*t for setting it up WHEN you have a vjoy and ucr that works:

So, it has to be axis X.
After you've done this, to get it working in IL-2 you can't just click the axis you want to assign and push the pedal, the game accepts priority from the racing pedals over your rudder pedals.
Instead what you have to do is:
1) Start your game so it loads all your controller devices, then exit the game.
2) Then open explorer and go to \IL-2 Sturmovik Great Battles\data\inputIL-2 Sturmovik Great Battles\
3) Then open a text document called devices (I use notepad), and find which device the vJoyDevice is numbered, in my case it's:
7,%2207000d70-f438-11e8-0000545345440280%22,vJoy%20Device
The 7 at the start there is important, that's the number you're looking for.
Remember that number, and close the notepad.
4) This is where it can get tricky: Open the Actions file, called Devices, with notepad, and scroll down until you find this line:
rpc_yaw,                                          key_x/key_z,                                      0| // Plane
UNDER that it has to say:
control: yaw
rpc_yaw,                                          joy7_axis_x,                                      1|
Again, 7 is the number that I found that IL-2 assigns to my vJoyDevice, which I found by using step 3.
For yours it might be different, hence you have to find the number that IL-2 assigns to the vJoyDevice.
Again, you can't just enter the game and push the pedal and go "yuppie", you have to do it this way, or no go.

Good luck!

Seems this version of vJoy is compatible with Windows 10 (1903).

vjoy has somehow broken joy2Key, anyone have the same problem?

[6FG_ST0N3DLAMA]

thanks for the reply guys appreciate it !

@Red_Von_Hammer  that worked perfectly for me!

Recently returned to BoS (and now Great Battles) only to find that the convenient system of controllers in columns, assignments in rows that DCS and MSFS use was not available.  I took advantage of the market conditions created by the MSFS release and unloaded my Saitek Combat Pedals just last week for a good price as i fly from a dual use cockpit, and only auto racing pedals would ever be installed, the Saitek pedals had just been out in the garage for ages, so it was make or brake to bring the racing pedals into the game.

I had to make two changes in the current.actions file, to joy2 and to axis_x  as axis x is what UJR had assigned to the pedals. So now

joy2_axis_x,

THANKS, you saved me and now I can go to the Halloween sale and buy!
