Key assignments TF 5.0

[Catseye]

Hi Guys,
Will the key assignments interface for TF 5.0 allow for DX HOTAS commands?

It's the way to go instead of just the old key commands.

"DX HOTAS commands" is not joystick/throttle buttons/HAT/Axes?

The game accept joystick buttons/HAT/Axes as commands since release.

An example of my DX commands in TM Target.tmh
They do not work in Blitz but they work perfectly in DCS.

Some people are able to use TARGET scrips in CLOD, example:

https://theairtacticalassaultgroup.c...=TARGET+script

May this don't work due the same issue of IL-2 Bo'X, in what is need insert "delay" between two keys, e.g. "LAlt + delay - A", etc.

Yes, I have also used key commands.

However, the script I use allows for 128 DX keys so every key has an on/off without relying on a text key. Also, TM is limited to 24 (I think) DX keys and I have expanded it to 128. However, COD/Blitz utilizes ASC text instead. It will not recognize the input from target utilizing DX commands directly.

Other sims do!

That's my point - the interface is extremely old, cumbersome and outdated in its current state.

CloD, like old IL-2:46 recognized up to 32 joy/throttle buttons (+ 1 POV HAT) per controller.

DCS/X-Plane recognize up to 128 (IL-2:Bo'X" up to 64) buttons, probable is the reason why your 128 buttons script don't work in CloD, but others scripts work.

Hence what CloD need is and updated Direct Input DLL, supporting more buttons, specially that now we have joysticks, e.g. VirPil, VKB with more than 32 buttons, both brand controllers can manage up to 128 buttons.
