Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Hello Pop, Everything should be in the manuals regarding the operation of the F-16. Is there something in particular you were thinking of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BETA-1969 1 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 the switches in the cockpit are done with the mouse. but you can assign keys to it. I have example: the landinglights=L parkingbrake=Delete airbrake=/ etc You can edit the settings in FSX controls section. but it can not be done with all cockpit controls.

BETA-1969 1 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I googled a bit so I know what CH MultiFuncional Panel is. But since I do not own one I cannot help you, there are reviews on the web but my suggestion is to start a new post named CH MFP, maybe there is someone who can help you out with this.

Pop 0 Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 will do. The MFP butons can be set to any"key" or combo of "keys". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BETA-1969 1 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 as far as I know there are now keys to use for the MFD's. It must be done with the mouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must be done with the mouse. Correct. Only standard FSX functions can be controlled with keys. It's an unfortunate limitation of FS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Hello Michalis, As above, only if they have been assigned keys in FSX and thats if FSX assigns keys to these functions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesChams 108 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Is there a way I can assign some functions to my cougar? For example the RDR CURSOR or the SPD Brake the ANT ELEV the DOG FIGHT mode etc? Thank you Michalis As Mr. Kok & Mr. Fletcher have stated it CANNOT be done with FSX & their F-16 current gauge files. BUT, with the U.E.P. update, we enhanced these capabilities. This can be done in one of two ways 1. by utilizing NON-F-16 features capabilities that were built into FSX by default (ie. using the shortcut keys for other functions like the hoist and programming those into the gauge files for MFD functions). 2. by creating key-remapping as VRS has done. The U.E.P. has already included these (1.) features but they are hard-coded into the gauge files themselves and will require user key & button assignment into FSX in order to make these features fully functional. I will as include MOUSE/CURSOR functionality as part of the TM HOTAS Cougar combined functionality with target designation but that is still a WIP for the moment. Also, I might make them user configurable at some point but for now they are fixed key assignments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
