Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog Profile v2.2 for JF-17 Thunder
- Functional layout
- Modifier layer
- TrackIR & rudder pedals
- Profiles (diff.lua) for stick & throttle
- MS Word layout
This profile is not meant to be all realistic only but functional as well for the JF-17.
- 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, eg. outside views for situational awareness, zoom, kneeboard referencing, radar functions, UFCP buttons, radio commands.
- The throttle base 'switcholgy' was mapped to facilitate controls such as internal lighting, stores config, engine mode, etc. As the JF-17 is pretty modern with panel type buttons, there isn't a lot of flip-switch mapping for the throttle base.
- In the included MS Word diagram, commands in RED are without Modifier while commands in BLUE are with Modifier.
Latest update:
1. Added new functions into diagram - DGFT NAR/WIDE, SPOT MODE at stick button 3 (NSB) and AG MAN SUBMODE at throttle switch 10 (Boat Switch).
2. Bound another T2 Press at Boat Switch Aft w/Modifier specifically for AG Man Submode. (T2 Press has to be held down for AG Man Submode while initiating AG Weapon Launch. This is not practical with the current T2 Press at stick button 19. This work around works well. Hopefully Deka can provide a toggle option for AG Man Submode. Another way is to swap the commands on the stick countermeasures switch with the throttle mic switch, though I prefer not to.)
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/JF-17
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) as a Modifier
6. Any mapping changes are remembered in the game but should be saved using steps 3 and 4 with "Save profile as"
