  • Mouse and Keyboard use for Ryujinx

    Same here!! Someone help us lol. I tried to run https://github.com/shauleiz/vJoy & https://github.com/CemuUser8/mouse2joystick_custom_CEMU/releases through crossover. No luck, but this could be the right path if we can get it to work. Would be crazy to emulate a switch game through Ryujinx and emulate a windows controller emulator through wine. Lots of emulation lol

  • Any way to use a HOTAS?
    1 project | /r/vtolvr | 27 Feb 2023
    Here is the HOTAS solution that works for me and it works for any brand. I have a VKB stick, TWCS throttle, DSD button box and a homemade button box, all merged into one vjoy device. Download and install vjoy https://github.com/shauleiz/vJoy/releases , configure like this, click on tab 1 so the number 1 is green. under axes, check all. Set number of buttons to 128, set POV hat switch to 4 directions, set POVs to 4, uncheck force feedback effects. Check enable vjoy, close vjoy configure, it runs in the background and auto starts with Windows so no need to turn it on or off. Download and install Joystick Gremlin https://whitemagic.github.io/JoystickGremlin/download/ watch this video for setup https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rd3h2tWDGXU&ab_channel=xl0p this program will merge all of your HOTAS devices into one device. Do not use HidHide or any other controller hiding program, that is what messes up VTOL VR. When you assign your HOTAS axes, hats and buttons to vjoy buttons, make a map of the new numbers and names. Start the VTOL VR mod loader, one click install the physical input mod. https://vtolvr-mods.com/mod/duaf6ktc/ . Follow the read me instructions exactly. Refer to the button map you made when editing the physicalinput.xml. Assign one hat each to the joystick thumbstick and throttle thumbstick for slew. Only edit the xml with Notepad ++. You can use the same gremlin profile in DCS, just disable all of the separate control columns in DCS control settings.

    The "keyboard joystick" in this game is above all praise and is implemented head and shoulders better than any other counterpart. There's no controlling the aircraft with a mouse implemented, so that would require a virtual joystick emulator (like vJoy) with a proper mouse joystick feeder (like cemu) for it.
  • Dual controls... options?

    I’m not sure if you can setup two controllers for the same axis in X-Plane natively and have it play nice, but try checking out UCR. I believe it lets you add multiple axis together, which paired with VJoy to bind it in X-Plane may work. I used this setup to combine racing pedals with two separate axis for left and right yaw into one axis that I bound in the flight sim.
  • FFB iRacing vs ACC, make them the same?

    The only problem with vJoy is that unless you download the right version and do things in a very specific (and not very obvious) way, it won't work properly.
  • Anybody have an idea why a vjoy hat isn't recognized by Kerbal?
    1 project | /r/KerbalSpaceProgram | 10 Apr 2021
    p.s. I opened an issue on the vjoy issue tracker: https://github.com/shauleiz/vJoy/issues/53. I don't know the first thing about Windows programming, so I'm totally useless at looking into the problem myself. :(
