raflyer Posted January 12, 2004 Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 I'm beginning to use/program esound into my sim. My first task is the Attend call button. In FSUIPC it sees this as joy1, button 9 or in the cfg file 11=P1,9. Now my question is what number do I put in the [Triggers] section for the button number? This is NOT epic, just the normal windows game device being used. Thanks, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted January 12, 2004 Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 I'm beginning to use/program esound into my sim. My first task is the Attend call button. In FSUIPC it sees this as joy1, button 9 or in the cfg file 11=P1,9. Now my question is what number do I put in the [Triggers] section for the button number? The button numbers 0-511 are derived assuming 32 buttons on each of 16 joysticks (the Windopws Joystick API limits), in order. So "1,9" = 1 x 32 + 9 = 41. Try 41. If I re-wrote Esound (and my EPIC stuff) now I'd use the J,B format, but all that software is many years old and uses the original pre-Windows EPIC button notation.

raflyer Posted January 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 Hi Pete, Here is a copy of my cfg file. Still can't seem to get it to work. The wav file is in the default fs9 sound folder. [Devices] 1=Primary Sound Driver 2= 3=Modem #1 Line Playback (emulated) 4=Yamaha DS1x Native Audio [settings] 1=1,100,FL 2=4,100 [sounds] 1=PMDG_Call 2=Outermk [Triggers] 1=41:1,1,1 Thanks for your help as I know this is an unsupported program. :) Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted January 12, 2004 Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 1=41:1,1,1 I don't remember any of this and had to look it up myself, but that line looked wrong anyway. The format according to the documentation is: N = Bn:c, W, S I think the "B" there needs to go in so ESOUND knows you are referring to Buttons. Other letters are M (modules) and V (variables). Otherwise it's a token name. Regards, Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
