CharZinta Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 I love the premise of the game. The demo played I got on steam is incredible but the functions of the keyboard controls drive me a bit crazy. I enter vehicles but cannot leave them? I cannot get my Saitek X52 Flight control system to be recognized by the game. Other than that, so far, I think I have the game maxed out on audio and video graphics and it runs fine so far. Now I'm not a power game I don't expect 200FPs when in reality your only going to get 80 but I haven't found a problem visually or auditory wise. I will post more as I work through the game but I think this game has super potential and I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RT Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Hey CharZinta, welcome aboard. To leave a vehicle, just press ctrl + e. I think that must be in the manual or in the keys document (press alt + D in game). ALso, you can remap most (all?) of the keys from the options (and believe me, that's a huge step forward from the previous games ). As for your x52, I'm not sure, my Thrustmaster's Cougar works actually fine, so I see little reason why the x52 wouldn't work, but eh. Do the Saytek HOTAS sticks come with an emulation mode? Btw, Sho and I are playing AAW from time to time (we got the full game, but I bet it wouldn't be too much trouble downloading the demo), so maybe we can set up a game together someday.

Thanks for the Welcome. Are you running your joystick on Windows 7 pro? I only just got the demo, because Steam said it was cool and god figure they were right, and I am thinking this must be my next purchase. As far as the keys I was reading through the game FAQ and KB and just couldn't find the key map. Thanks for the one. I still have a lot to learn but it looks a blast.

CharZinta Posted July 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Windows 7 ultimate, 64bits actually. Wierdness. I've tested it on other games, though I'm only using 32 bit this round. My next load will be 64bit. I have the following system, so that shouldn't be it, but just in case. X4 920 Processor at 2.8GHz 8GB ram, though with 32 bit I'm only get 3.25 so I can't wait to switch to 64bit OS) Windows 7 gives me a 5.9, though the only item NOT above 7.0 is the disk transfer rate. that what brings me down. I have yet to figure out why since its a sata 3 drive. I have an ATI RADEON 4800 w/1G of GDDR5 I can run the game at MAX values on everything video and audio and it doesn't even stutter, though I do wonder what my FPS is, and it rocks. I just can't seem to get used to using the arrow keys and keyboard for fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 Try updating to the latest FULL DirectX runtime and see if that helps. Maybe it has something to do with your DirectInput drivers. Download and run the file. If setup doesn't start automatically, go to the folder where the files were extracted and run setup.exe to install DirectX runtime. Also, go to Control Panel and make sure that your stick actually works in there. If it does, then it should work with the game. Just make sure that you set it to use the JOYSTICK as the controller in the game options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
