Anyone have a pointer to a good key map for CH setup for PF? I've got one
for FB but I can't get the hat switches to work for views, without manually
trying to set it up in the control panel... (teh main hat on the
fighterstick should work as snap views by default, no?)

Any pointers appreciated.

Press the scroll lock key and then it will stay in snap view.

I'm afraid my error is more basic than that ... when you start PF it doesn't
automatically recognize the ch setup, so you have to set axis and all that
via the hotas control panel and standard control panel to get things
working....

I can't see a way to not have to manually assign snap views to the hat
switch on the fighterstick, which is a right pain in the arse and doesn't
work well--I would think the main hat on the stick should work for
panning/snap views by defualt?

Check mine out:

Just keep in mind that you have to use my IL-2 keyboard setup because I had
to assign keys because Pacific Fighters doesn't assign a lot of them out of
the box. Left toe brake releases chocks, right toe brake is wheel brakes.
Press left toe brake, keep depressed, then press right toe brake will lower
arrestor hook. Be sure to raise right pedal first then left when releasing.

Also, have the map in a powerpoint file for reference.

Be sure to put "setttings.ini" into "Users/doe" folder, but don't forget to
rename your existing one first or back it up just in case.
