Regarding control configuration

Recommended Posts

When I press (and hold) my right mouse button I want to look down the sights of the weapon I am currently using, I also want to gain the zoomed in view while doing this.

When I let go of the right mouse button I want everything to revert to normal without any delay.

How do I configure my controls so that this happens?

The normal Optics keybind ("Sec. Mouse Button") is toggle, but there's an Optics Temporary which is hold, so bind both that and "Lock or Zoom" to "Hold Sec. Mouse Btn." :) If you don't want any interference from the Optics toggle then just unbind regular Optics and leave it blank.

You might also (if you wish) unbind "hold breath" from the RMB. I use zoom quite a lot and since ArmA 3 doesn't have the "lean in to zoom" feature for trackIR anymore I have to use the RMB. But I don't always wish to hold my breath while doing so :)

Alright I'm slowly starting to get the hang of things, is there any way to get the "lock or zoom" to be toggled by using mouse wheel up?

Also when I bound crouch to left shift the game indicates a control conflict with "buldozer turbo", the hell is that?

Some times after using the map my character will walk in a straight line at a brisk pace, is there any way to halt this? Or is it abug?

Why can the cyclical left/right controls for the helicopter not be bound to q and e?

When pressing e I will pitch down, I do not want this, and e is not bound to anything else so what the fuck gives?

I can still move forward to zoom with TrackIR...

Yes, I use SPACE to hold breath so that looking through optics doesn't automatically do it.

Gabardine: Dont' be worried about conflicts as long as they don't interfere.

"When pressing e I will pitch down.." You must have missed it somewhere

...do you mean in an analogue way? The time I tried it I had lean forward = zoom in to max and lean back = zoom out to max, no way to control other than those two actions.

Did you make some sort of custom mapping? If so what to what? :)

Hi, it is my trackir binding: http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/1741/arma32013061016224969.jpg , I can zoom in/out with those settings as much as I want. Do not worry about red conflicts. cheers, pawelkpl

The issue with E in helicopters is a bug, had to go into my profile config file and edit it manually for it to stop pitching me over.

Thanks, that seemed to work :) I had thought that I'd done that already, but I guess it is a fix since the initial Alpha release (maybe) ;)

Ah sorry, I thought you meant it wasn't working at all.

You are right that its not analogue just normal, zoom-in, zoom-out.

I like it that way actually but I guess it should be more controllable.

I'll try Pawel's method.
