Cougar Problems - Need Help

[Guest joedepurp]

Hi All,

 

Making this Brief.

I load up Foxy, Load "Crash Lomack tmm / tmj , Compile etc.

Go to "HotAs Cougar Control Panel"

Download to device "Lomac.tmj"

run "Launcher.exe"

 

Laucher Icon is "red" in task bar; axis = windows, buttons = windows.

change Laucher Icon to "green" in task bar; axis = windows, buttons = custom

 

Run LOMAC, any stadard mission - buttons no work, panning is great(smooth)

Exit mission, exit game, change Laucher Icon to "red" in task bar;

Run LOMAC, start mission, no buttons or panning.

Exit mission. Go to "options" , change to axis / test etc. all buttons / throttle work fine.

 

Exit game. change Laucher Icon to "green" in task bar; axis = windows, buttons = custom, run LOMAC, Go to "options" , change to axis / test etc. all buttons / throttle DO NOT work. etc

 

*********************** updated ************************

This is the latest.

I use "Crash Lomac" current config.

"Have you created, or downloaded, joystick files for your Cougar? Lomac specific files?" YES

 

After setting up Couger thru CCP, I get the "Laucher Icon is "red" in task bar; axis = windows, buttons = windows.

change Laucher Icon to "green" in task bar; axis = windows, buttons = custom

 

Run LOMAC, start mission, no buttons or panning.

Exit mission. Go to "options" , change to axis / test etc. all buttons / throttle work fine. (in green mode)

 

Runs fine for 3 to 5 mins. Then all buttons will no longer function.

 

Pause game;

change Laucher Icon to "green" in task bar; axis = windows, buttons = custom (green to red - red to green.

 

Go back to game. Game is fine for short time. Then all buttons will no longer function.

 

The settings will not hold!

What am I doing wrong?

Go to your instal dir for lomac and look for the input dir within, then when you find the profile for cougar, right click properties and un-check read only. this should fix the prob. (Hopefully) It worked for me anyway. hope this makes sense
