I've got only 2 of the CH USB products as I use the thumbwheel on the Fighterstick as my rudder control, and most of the profiles that I have downloaded are with the pedals. I tried to modify the CMS file by removing or putting // infront of the the line like this;

//CMS.B1 = ([JS3.A1 > 128] or [JS3.A2 >128]); // WHEEL BRAKES

and seems to work but not in all games. It's ok in Falcon4 but not in CFS3 or IL2. I am not a programmer and I am trying to learn how to program my CH products using the Help files included in the CH Control Manager 3.0 program. I am trying to pickup a few things by reading some of the threads in this forum but I am still confused. So my question is, to start creating a profile, do I have to create a MAP first then to scripting? Can I use the MAP created and download the map and play the game straight away? What does those numbers in the map means, for example;

022205=1
022701=2
022101=2
022220=DCS_DOWN
022301=2
022501=2
021420=NOSE_WHEEL_STEER
021720=OPEN_SPEEDBRAKES
021620=LANDING_GEAR
021520=CLOSE_SPEEDBRAKES
010E28=RETURN TO SEARCH

TIA guys.

You can download a profile and delete the controller you don't want by using the 'Delete' button http://www.ch-hangar.com/SiteFiles/Images/faq/cmdeletebtn.jpg. What maps in particular are you trying to use? any from this site?

I'm trying to make my own map through the Control Manager. But I also have downloaded some profiles from this site and try to edit and see what happens. But most of the time, they doesn't seem to work as it should be. So do I have to make the CMC file first before creating a MAP?

Take a look at the FAQ here (http://www.ch-hangar.com/content.php?content.1#cmcfiles) for help with .cmc creation and use. I know it may sound daft and please don't take offense but make sure when you make a change, save it and re-download it to your controller..yes like I said it sounds daft and you're probably rolling your eyes at me but the times I've edited a file particularly when working with a .cms script and then tried it ingame and got frustrated because my change did'nt work only to realise I had not re-downloaded my edited file to the stick :oops: :D

Yep, that happens to everybody. IF, I was using FS2004, and couldn't for the life of me figure out why in slew the aircraft started spinning, it ended up that I was in mapped mode, and although I took out references to rudder in GUI (I only have the PT and FS too) the CMC still had a rudder axis and it was going full left :)

Fox:

I think that most maps that don't make use of the ministick and the throttle wheel can be adapted to your set-up, but it's hard to give general directions on how to do so. If you post (or e-mail to me) a particular map that you'd like to convert, I'll take a crack at adapting it for you.
