How to get your Joystick working!
 

Hi... just thought I'd share this. freak:

How to get your Joysitck working!

in console, type this

bind j "toggle in_joystick;cl_pitchspeed 0;cl_yawspeed 0"

(This adds a couple of lines to your unnamedsoldier.cfg file in MOH\main\configs directory.)

Then your Joystick will work. Forward and Backward will work, but you will have to bind your buttons.

in console, type this (examples only)

bind JOY1 "+leanleft"
bind JOY2 "+leanright"

BUT BUT BUT!!!
When you exit, make sure you turn it off by pressing "j" again. Or else the next time you start MOHAA it won't work.
If you did exit without turning the Joystick off, you will have to delete one (1) line from your "unnamedsoldier.cfg" file.
This is the line you must delete (located under the Cvars section).
--it looks something like this, I can't really remember lol, sorry--

seta in_joystick "1"

There ya go.. enjoy yourselves! fire1: fire2: bigzooka: eatthis:

PS!!! if you know how to get around this problem please post it here, because it pees me off.

Oh yeah! plus if you know how to bind the lean to the forward motion and backward motion, I would really like to know wink: I use my steering wheel pedals for forward and back, but I would like to use them for lean instead biggrin:

is the jotstick better to use or is the mouse the best way to go

I've never used the joystick in MOHAA, but I'd still say the mouse is the way to go. I would think you'd have more accurate and precise control of the crosshair with the mouse.

I've played the entire MOH series on PlayStation and PS2. After using the mouse for MOHAA it's hard to go back to a controller.

ya thats what i thought

i have played all shoot 'em ups with a mouse so i am not changing from that, unless they bring a sniper or gun out to fire at the monitor with cool:

ya those things are fuckin awsome like in duck hunter for original nintendo. that was such a good game but eveybody cheated cause they put the gun right up to the screen

why would any one want to use a joystick with a game like mohaa or any other game of this type sheer madness, joysticks are for flying sims and car sims not fp sims, u silly silly boy oOo:

i dont know but i really want to know now if you can buy one of those duck hunter guns

not where i come from?? iv never seen them only hand gun's for the ps1 & ps2 oOo:

but why would u want a gun that size when playing a game on a monitor hake:

i dont know
i was just thinking
thxs for ruining my fun

Can't beat the mouse for aim. There's no way I'd use the joystick for a FP game. fire2:

But there are some people out there who like to use their gamepad. The console commands above will allow you to do that.

I only use my steering wheel pedals, I use the keyboard and mouse for everything else. It's just that my feet were doing nothing, so I thought I might as well get them involved too! lol they were getting bored! biggrin:

Anyone know how to bind the forward and backward motion to leanleft and right?

well i use a joypad and a mouse and it kicks ass ask anyone who has played me.

i hold the pad in my left hand and control the d-pad with my thumb i also have 2 buttons next to the d-pad with i also use with my thumb and there is 2 trigger buttons i control with my forefinger.

and on my right hand i controll my mouse anything else i just put on the numberpad as it is easy to access

so that set up gives me direction and 4 buttons on the joypad and the mouse gives me aim 5 buttons and a scroll key so i all that is 11 functions not including aim and movment. angel:

hey i got a joypad and that seems like a pretty good idea. ill try that thx

Thanks for the hint Da_bian,

This info can also be found in the FAQ's at the top of this forum. You know the one I spent a lot of time working on and know one is looking at - j/k biggrin:
