CONTROLLER ISSUES

Q. HOW CAN I REMAP THE GAME CONTROLS?

A. The only controls which you can map are those available in the game config screen.

Q. MY MOUSE CURSOR SOMETIMES DOES NOT APPEAR

A. If you are using the MS Plus!, Mouseware, Intellimouse or similar, change your settings to use the
default Microsoft mouse cursor scheme. For example, in the Mouse Properties tab for Intellimouse,
you would set the scheme to NONE.

Q. I CAN'T SEEM TO ENTER MY NAME IN THE START NEW GAME SCREEN

A. If you have FSAA turned up to full in the game's config screen, try lowering it a notch.

Q. MY JOYSTICK IS DRIFTING

A. Calibrate it via Control Panel before starting the game. Then, once in game, if it still drifts,
put the stick down so that the handle is centered, slam the throttle (if you have one) all the way
back. Then press ALT+CTRL+J to recenter it.

Q. MY JOYSTICK THROTTLE DOES NOT SEEM TO WORK CORRECTLY

A. Make sure you have first calibrated the joystick as indicated above. Also, please read section 6.0
of the game manual to see how the joystick throttle works.

Q. WHY DOES THE CTRL+J OPTION TO SWITCH MY YAW/ROLL STICK FUNCTION, NOT WORK?

A. That option is only for joysticks that do NOT have a rudder or twist axis. If your joystick has a
twist axis, it can be used to control the craft's yaw. As such, your stick already has both axis
supported independently.

Q. MY SAITEK X-36 JOYSTICK IS CAUSING MY WEAPONS TO CYCLE REPEATEDLY

A. By default the M1, M2, M3 keys are mapped to buttons 9,10,11 by the manufacturer. So, since M1
maps to button 9 used by the game, it is the same as repeatedly pressing button 9. To
counter this, move the switch to M10/M11.

Also, if you have an X-45 HOTAS joystick, try using mode 2 if mode 1 causes screen flickering.

Q. I CAN'T GET MY GAMEPAD CONTROLLER TO WORK

A. The game only supports the XBOX360 Controller For Windows as well as analog gamepads which are
DirectX compliant. Which means that not all gamepads are supported. If it doesn't work, then it's
not supported. 

MULTIPLAYER ISSUES

Q. WHAT ARE THE BEST SETTINGS FOR CONNECTING TO A SERVER?

A. Please refer to the game manual.

Q. I DON'T SEE ANY SERVERS IN THE GAME SERVER BROWSER SCREEN

A. The server uses UDP/TCP ports 2302-2304. If your computer is behind
a firewall or NAT, then you have to configure your firewall (or router) settings
and forward those ports to the computer running the server.

Also, there may not be any servers online. Try again later.

Q. I SAW A SERVER BUT WHEN I TRIED TO JOIN I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS FULL

A. Depending on the time you chose to join the server from the time you saw
that it had an empty client slot, someone else may have joined before you.

Refresh the server browser and try again.
