would it be posible to map the joystick trigger to take screenshot?

i feel like playing bos for a long time

 

but i dont wanna shoot anybody down but to take a photographic shot at the moment

 

what would be the easiest way to do that?

I would imagine one of those key-mapping programs, so you could translate your joystick gun-button into a keyboard command to activate something like print-screen or shadowplay screenie.

do you know any free one for a logitech cyborg evo?

JoytoKey will do this for you and it's free https://joytokey.net/en/

 

Just tested it and it works

While making the above screenshot, I used a little program called mgrab or multi grab by Martin Wright http://www.mwgfx.co.uk/programs/mgrab.htm

 

It occurred to me that this little tool could be used to make guncam type records if you compiled the mulitiple screens  it can make into a .gif , just a thought , yet to try it. But you can have up to 999 screenshots at up to 10 per second and can adjust the "shutter" speed so it could be interesting?

Unless I misunderstand, that is already built-in:

 

Settings / Key Mapping / Service / Make a screenshot of the game -> Assign joystick trigger button or whatever.

That's true and apparently so obvious we all missed it  Yet it only applies to IL2 commands, of which "Make a screenshot of the game" is one.

 

Bandicam controls and other 3rd party stuff is not covered by the in game settings, but is with JoyToKey as you set your joystick buttons to your keyboard buttons with no restriction as to what those keyboard buttons do.
