Dual Stage Trigger: No longer working?

[JG7_X-Man]

I could have swore that IL-2 recognized the Virpil Mongoose T-50CM2 grip dual stage trigger I had. However, IL-2 isn't recognizing the dual stage trigger on the Constellation ALPHA Prime.

 

Before, if you depressed the trigger 1/2 way, you get button 1, then if you dresses it all the way, you get button 2. This is for firing different weapon groups.

I checked the software other games and it works fine. It's invaluable flying with gunpods in IL-2 and the F-22 Mod in DCS as you need to open the missile bay door and then launch a missile.

Are you saying that when you try to assign the trigger's outputs to IL2 weapon groups, there is no response?

I would find out what your second trigger button is in the stick software ( button 0 or what ever it is ), Then go and edit the current actions file to fire the second weapons group by adding your button number in the file, save and close 

 

for me joy B0  fires guns and joy b1 fires cannons

Yes. IL-2 is recognizing the 1st depress bit not the second.

@69th_Panp That did the trick! Thanks!

Also another way you could get it to show is to go to setting/ key mapping  and find the second weapons group

before you click to map the key (depress and hold the trigger button all the way down and then click the map icon on the second weapons box and then release the button and it will map the trigger press
