vLSO Beta release

Orion,
back to your recent proposal:

Is there a way to map a Tab+key keyboard combination to a joystick button? It's no problem to make appropriate changes to the program, but that would limit people to use Tab keyboard combinations only, which is no good (just imagine a virtual pilot at the most crucial moment trying to reach his keyboard and stretching fingers to press Tab+q for manual ball). Much more convenient would be to use a HOTAS stick with those manual ball keyboard commands mapped to its buttons.
I can recall in my IL2/PF days I used to use various Saitek X45 mappers, but none of them allowed Tab+key combos, only Shift, Alt and Ctrl... What about modern times?..

I believe the "Registered" version of FSUIPC, by Pete Dowson provides such a capability.
Several people have effectively programmed every key command of the VRS Superbug to support their cockpit builds.

You could use SimConnect_MapInputEventToClientEvent with a pszInputDefinition argument of joystick:n:button:i, where n is the joystick number (starting from 0) and i is the button's index number.

Oh yes, I somehow forgot there's such a function. Being focused on one thing I sometimes don't see other ;)
Ok, now I have another problem to solve - dealing with sticks and buttons... ;D
abh_jc_03:
I have the most recent Beta Release and I am having some possible technical issues. I get the Case recovery text and voice but when I fly the pattern I don't get the abeam or call outs for miles like 3 miles, 2 miles etc. The only time I get it to call out is if I am coming around on my downwind and close the current vLSO and start a new one. Any thoughts?
