MOUSE CONTROL?

[JamesWilson]

Hi everyone,

I wanted to ask you if there is any way to fly the plane with mouse as yoke (just like War Thunder) in SF2 or SFP1

I know it's way better to fly it with a joystick, and that it's perfectly playable with arrow keys, but that's something i just wanted to know about.

Let me know if there is any way to set this as yoke command.

Thank you very much

Ah ok then.

It's a bit of a shame for me, but it's not fundamental, since flying even with the arrow keys is greatly made in SF series.

Thank you btw!

Yes there is. Using "Virtual Controller". Since it's been some time since i configured it, i can't explain how to make it work but you could go to Youtube and search for MSFS2020 mouse yoke. It works in SF exactly the same way it works in MSFS.Well, except from one thing. The control surfaces for some reason keep trying to autocenter. Even though i disabled autocentering in the Default.INI,. It works for the keyboard which is really cool because it makes it much more playable, but it doesn't work for the yoke. It still autocenters.

I don't know if it has anything to do with the fact that i've installed VJoy, but the mouse can be used as yoke even without any Virtual Controller software. Just go to options, controls, and set the flight controls to mouse. You simply click on it and move the mouse and it's done. I haven't noticed that before. Still, it autocenters and you have to move the mouse around all the time just to turn the plane.

Actually you can disable the auto-center, but it seems that it works only with keyboard control. I have the auto-center disabled for pitch control only. similar to flaming cliffs 2. to disable it go to >C:\Users\[User]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Vietnam\Controls\Default.INI and find SelfCenterRate under PITCH_CONTROL and set it from 1 to 0. I wouldnt recommand disabling it for Roll and Yaw. its not as good as flying with the mouse but it makes things a little easier.
