Vjoy pdoes not allow trim in DCS #48

Hello,

I know it seemed strange, but when I have Vjoy active, I cannot trim in DCS. Inside the controls tab if I press the corresponding keys it indicates the trimming action, but when flying, there is no reaction, in any plane ... does this happen to anyone too?
Thanks a lot

hi pabletesoy how did you solve the issue ? i have wird issue with dcs 2.5 version vjoy axis are not "centered" and trim work strange with vjoy axis. But they is no issue if i affect directly the "real" stick axis in DCS inputs conf.

look like my vjoy axis are not sendind the correct center position to the soft if no action on stick is done... i try to "calibrate" the vjoy device in windows but dont work axis a perfectly centered in the overview of calibration

I see on dcs using ctrl righ + enter key the stick position display and i see that the stick in not centered if using vjoy no idea why look that the DCS 2.7 have no issue with vjoy

when you say " I map the axes in DCS and the rest in Vjoy"

you mean that you use the "real X and Y" axis of the real joystick in dcs directly instead of using "simulated axis of Vjoy" and use others boutton and axis of from vjoy for others stuff right correct ? strange is that FC3 have issue but F18 module not !

So I did like you for now but it's not so perfect if like me you have 2 joysticks FFB and normal and you switch from one of the other regulary... for theses axis

Workaround for this issue is to disable force feedback joysticks in DCS. Even when you disable force feedback effects vjoy registers as a ffb stick. DCS assumes it will self center but our sticks do not.

anyway feature request for vjoy: disable registering as ffb device. And for now: disable FFB in dcs when flying fc3 aircraft.

Holy crap this issue was driving me nuts. I literally reinstalled windows and everything. But your suggestion fixed it. Thanks for saving my sanity.
