Joystick Patch
This patch implements additional joystick support for the Thrustmaster FCS and CH Products Flightstick Pro which was not present in the initial version of 1942: The Pacific Air War:
1) The Flightstick Pro from CH Products is now fully supported. To use it, go to the Configure Game menu from the main menu and select Flightstick Pro from CH Products as your Camera Control device.
2) The hat controller on the FCS stick from Thrustmaster is now fully supported. To use it, go to the Configure Game menu from the main menu and select FCS Hat from Thrustmaster as your Camera Control device. (Note that you cannot use the FCS hat and a throttle wheel or slider at the same time)
The hat controller on both the Flightstick Pro and the FCS perform in the following manner:
FROM THE VIRTUAL COCKPIT, CHASE VIEW, AND ROAM VIEW:
The hat controller is used to smoothly change the direction in which you are looking. Holding down button #2 on the joystick allows you to change the view direction by moving the joystick itself. In the Virtual Cockpit, the view can be centered on the gun sight by pressing the 'c' key on the keyboard, or by pressing and releasing button #2 on the joystick.
FROM THE TAILGUNNER VIEW AND TRACKING VIEW:
The hat controller is not used in these modes.
FROM ALL OTHER VIEWS:
Moving the hat controller in the following directions changes to the specified view:
FORWARD (UP): Gives the Forward Cockpit or GunSight view
LEFT: Gives the Left Wing view
RIGHT: Gives the Right Wing view
BACKWARD (DOWN): Toggles between the Left Shoulder and Right Shoulder views
ZOOM and UNZOOM
If you use the Thrustmaster FCS or CH Products FlightStick Pro, please note that you can no longer zoom or unzoom the camera.
