Whell trouble : car reverse instead stop

Recommended Posts

Not sure if it's a bug or a configuration issue ...

I want to use my whell in Arma 2

I have setup controls to turn left, right and to go forward and back

All is quite fine (a little bit to drive, lot of zigzag) but when I move forward a little and stop to accelerate, my car stop and then go back (I am on a plate land)

I have to accelerate a little to stay at the same location

In the past, I have already succeed in the past to cancel this trouble but I can' find anymore the way to do it (may be editing a file, I don't remember)

Sounds like you need to adjust the deadzone and/or calibration for your Z axis (accelerate/brake/reverse)

What brand of wheel is it? (CH, Saitek, MicroSoft, etc.)?

I have a Logitech Formula Force EX

I ever tried to put a deadzone on "accelerate" and "break" in my Logitech profiler but it doesn't solve the problem.

In Arma 2, I think I ever solved the problem but don't remember how :confused:

In Arma 2 OA, it never worked.

Yesterday, in Arma 2, I was doing tests to try to solve the problem in OA but at final, I broke it in Arma2.$

In Options > Controls > Controler > Logitech Formula Force EX USB > Customize, it looked as in OA but after I clicked on Default, the problem appeared back in Arma 2

Not sure, but may be I edited my <username>.ArmA2Profile

I will try to search something about deadzone and this file

I have done additionnal tests ...

If I create a new profile and only configure Right, Left, Forward, Back, it works fine.

As soon as I go in "Controler > <My wheel> > Customize" and change something (ex : increase Stick X Axis) and confirm (OK) and then come back and do Default, the problem occurs.

I have found a workaround :

I have edited my <user>.Arma2Profile file removing the class Joystick2 section that corresponded to my wheel controler

Then, I start Arma2 and after reconfigure my four directions (wheel assignments disappeared), it works fine.

But I think there is a bug with this Default button in Controler > Customize
