Joystick - Z/Twist axis?

[Smeagol with a Deagle]

Hi all,

Is there a way to set Z axis/twist to YAW rather than roll?

Can't seem to find the right control in options.

Thanks

You can't set axes in the game itself, it assigns them automatically. X/Y become pitch and yaw, Z is the throttle, and the next axis it finds (for me on my Xb360 controller it was rY) becomes roll.

The solution is to install vJoy/UJR, and create a 4-axis virtual joystick where your preferred pitch,yaw,roll axes are mapped to X, Y and rZ, and throttle to Z (or leaving Z unmapped if you don't own a throttle controller).

That said, having yaw on Y fits perfectly with the arcade feel of the Star Wars space fighter games. You'll be spending most of your time trying to get a clear shot at something that moves around you quickly, roll being a secondary control you might sometimes want for comfort, pretty much. This ain't no flight sim (or ANY kind of sim really), no balanced turns in Star Wars, and the Elite control scheme will likely get you killed. :)

If you're using a Logitech stick, like the Extreme 3D series, you can just download Logitech Profiler and change the settings that way. Can even create different profiles for different games very quickly and easily.

Im pretty sure that was settable in game?
