Brake Axis reversed??

[scottmm73]

Is there anyway to reverse the brake axis on a cherry unmodded CFS3 installation? I've googled and searched and have not found a way. Please tell me there is a way to fix this.

Not quite sure what you mean. Is this to do with joystick or pedals or the behaviour of a particular aircraft model?

Do you mean your foot-brakes are on when your feet are in the normal position, and off when you push with your toes? Had that...

Go into C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Microsoft\Combat Flight Simulator 3.0
and open CFS3.xca with notepad. Scroll down until you find the entry for your foot brakes, and add a minus sign where I've put it in red.


<Device Type="Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals">
<GameMode Name="Player">
<Axis ID="X" Action="AXIS_LEFT_BRAKE_SET" Scale="-18" Nullzone="82"/>
<Axis ID="Y" Action="AXIS_RIGHT_BRAKE_SET" Scale="-18" Nullzone="82"/>
<Axis ID="Rudder" Action="Set_Yaw" Scale="64" Nullzone="36"/>
</GameMode>

Should work!

Also:
If you push the escape key in CFS3 and choose Control Options in the drop down menu that appears you can select any keys you want to do anything you want, including reversing the keys you are using for brake right and left.

That is exactly what I mean, guess I was a bit vague in my question, but figured axis was the key word here. Will try the above and report.

Thank you.



****Worked like a charm....Thanks brother.****
