Can I use a Joystick for fighters and a yoke for Bombers and the P38?

[SCG_motoadve]

I tried it before, and it did not worked.

Now with the new customizable controls profiles , I thought it might work,  I tried it and  IL2 does not recognize my yoke's axis, pitch and roll. buttons work ok though.

 

If I test on windows, the axes are fine.

 

Has anyone managed to make this work?

Does it not see the axis at all when binding? Or is it just that it always uses one bind thing first?

I have fulcrum yoke and a stick 

I use both dedicated on the planes I want them used

You can use two different controllers for pitch and roll, and can exchange the profiles "on the fly".

I just' don't test with an Yoke, don't have one.

Perhaps the old trick of rename "devices.txt" help for Yoke appear in keybinds.

It does not see the pitch and roll axis at all, however it does see the throttle axis that is included in the yoke.

You'll have to edit it manually in the data/input/current ACTIONS file.  Press a button to pin on your yoke, than convert the test to an axis input.

 

All virpil hand breaks have to be done this way on sticks, they aren't recognized by the game since a button also gets triggered on the squeeze.

 

joy2_b9, changed to joy2_axis_z, you'll have to figure out which axis letter goes with which axis.

For assigning axis on VIrpil hardware for IL-2 can one not just temporarily remove the button press in the Virpil software?

Thanks, tried this and did not worked.

Can you manually write the axis in the input file and see if it recognizes it without detecting it?

I did and does not recognizes it.

The game recognize this yoke if you unplug the joystick?

 

Test this renaming the "devices.txt" first.
