Pushing period or my mapped brakes button on my stick didn't do anything. Setting the parking brakes and then releasing them was the only thing that worked. After that however, I had no normal braking, only parking brakes.

I thought I turned that OFF, when I get my computer up and running, I'll re-check the XML to make sure its NOT engaging all the time. Part of the problem I had when I first tried this WORK-AROUND, was how it didnt engage/disengage properly. This is my second full go-around with using the brakes this way. Lemme see if I cant fix it when I get a chance. If I can get it to work, its a great way to slow CAT SHOT speed to realistic but it can be a pain, especially if certain conditions aren't being met or read in the XML. In essense, the XML is "sensing" a condition and applying LEFT and RIGHT Brake AXIS to the amount I've programmed in. I may try to avoid using AXIS Braking and see if I can enable it thru the use of the aircraft brakes themselves. Its a similar problem to what JIMI encountered when having a speed limiter set to the THROTTLE AXIS... if the XML sets an AXIS, it will check against that joystick AXIS, and not A:VAR.
Thanks for the heads up. Also, if you can remember, you were at MIL for takeoff, what was your end-cat IAS? And what was your carrier speed? Standard?

Sludge,
I don't remember my speed at the end of the stroke but I remember it being triple digits. I was using your custom AI boat traffic just off North Island with the almost exactly the same wind setup you said you used. I think you said the boat was 15kts and I have the wind setup at 308 at 16kts.

OK, roger that. I'll see what I can do now, as I got MY NEW PROCESSOR installed and everything is up and running good.

Any issues with installing in the CS twin seater? Didn't want to mess anything up during the install, but the file structure does seem easier to manage now.

OK, just sent you a PM but might as well post it here in case others are having similar issues. You need to make sure the FA-18.A-D ZIP folder is in its UNZIPPED version (regular folder) INSIDE the FSX\Gauges folder. If you dont, the current Sludge system will have no way to access the needed folders.
