Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog Profile v1.1 for Ka-50 Black Shark 3
- Functional layout in one page
- MODIFIER layer
- TrackIR & Rudder Pedals required
- Profiles (diff.lua) for Stick and Throttle included
- MS Word layout included
This profile is meant to be functional and for hot or auto starts.
- I felt the best use of the 'finicky' throttle Slew Control (T1) was to make it a MODIFIER with its axes unmapped. This allows for a 2nd layer of useful functions. (Remap if you have a thumbstick slew modification like the one by Delta Sim.)
- In the included MS Word diagram, command colours are:
1st Layer (default) = RED
2nd Layer (hold down MODIFIER) = BLUE
PS: Since 2.8, ED has removed the cycle option for 3-way switches which is unfortunate.
Update 1.1
a) Removed cargo hook commands on throttle and replaced with MAN/GYRO/MH and lighting functions (ED will eventually remove Ka-50 sling load capability)
b) Added HUD Filter to throttle button 2 (with modifier)
To install:
1. Unzip file and store the two "diff.lua" files (one for stick and one for throttle) to any folder you like
2. Go to the game's Options/Controls/Ka-50 III
3. Under the drop down menu tab "Joystick - HOTAS Warthog", select "Load profile" and browse to and select the saved stick diff.lua file
4. Under the drop down menu tab "Throttle - HOTAS Warthog", select "Load profile" and browse to and select the saved throttle diff.lua file
5. At the bottom "Modifiers" tab, add the throttle Slew Control (middle finger T1 button = JOY_BTN1) as a Modifier
6. Any mapping changes are remembered in the game (C:\Users\User\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config\Input\Ka-50 III\joystick) but can also be saved using steps 3 and 4 with "Save profile as"
