Saiborg MadCatz V1 programming change.

Postby dilbert » Thu Jun 15, 2017 11:32 am

2017.2.1 WIN 10 AMD 8 MadCatz V1
Upgraded three machines to 2017.2.1 normally, leaving FlightGear.org intact, and without problems.
On above machine had deleted flightgear.org.
When went to program joystick found "rudder" selection no longer available for axis 3; an unfortunate development as I use the twist grip for rudder and
axis 5 and 6 for viewing. :(
Solved my own problem by pasting in a copy of flightgear.org from one of the other machines :) ; but would have been SOL had I not had it available.
Since suspect others also use twist grip for rudder, would like to know rationale behind this alteration. :?: :?:

Hi dilbert,

If you don't get an answer here, you might take it to the dev list. I know nothing. Have you checked fgdata commit log or is this a c++ change?

Problem solved. For some reason in 2017.2.1 the menu position obscures the top several choices. Pulling the menu down
exposes the rudder choice, which works as before. :)
