PART 6: KNOWN ISSUES
---------------------------------------------------------------
This part of the readme file gives you information about known
issues or known problems that are as yet unfunctional or
illogical about the Device Driver. They will be resolved in
future updates of the driver. Mind you that these issues in no
way interfere with the correct functioning of the device
software.
6.1 The buttons or axes do not work while testing on Game
Controller.
It is normal condition. Programing some buttons as keys
of keyboard, the drivers will disable the functions of
game input device, just cast the keystroke scan code
to Windows to simulate the keyboard action.
6.2 Programming the Pause/Break key.
If you program any device button with the Pause/Break
key, the Num Lock key will be passed on to the game.
How to simulate the problem: open the profile. Choose
a device button, graphically shown to the right of
the Profile Editor's window. Save and activate the
profile. Press the button on the device to which you
programmed the action (Pause/Break). Notice the Num
Lock light switching on and off.
How to work around: do not assign any keys with the
Pause/Break key, as this will light up Num Lock.
Please note that this is by no means harmfull to your
device, software or to your computer. The action only
does not have the expected outcome.
6.3 Making a new profile vs. editing an old one.
There are a few simple rules to follow if you want to
start making profiles:
If your want to edit an old profile:
double click the profile in the Profile Activator
- OR -
Open the Profile Editor, click on Open, point the
Dialog window to the correct folder and double-click
the profile you want to edit.
If you want to start a new profile:
Open the activator and click on Utilities in the Menu
located at the top of your screen and start editing.
- OR -
Open the activator and click on Profile Editor button
on the toolbar.
- OR -
Open the editor by right-clicking on the device
Activator in the System tray to the left of your
screen.
6.4 Use of the 'Add' button.
Click on the 'Add' button when you want to add an
existing profile. An existing profile is a profile
that is located on your hard disk. The 'Add' button
does not allow you to add a "new" profile. To add a
new profile, first edit it in the Profile Editor, save
it to Hard Disk and 'Add' it to the Profile Activator
by clicking on the 'Add' button.
6.5 Playing Battlezone
To enjoy Battlezone the most, you still need to
configure the game correctly to make best use of the
Digital 3D device. To do that, boot up Battlezone after
installing it. Click on Options on the bottom-left side
of the screen. Click on Input Configuration, then on
Joystick on the bottom-right side of the screen.
Choose 'Standard 4 button 3 axis Joystick with Hat' and
reduce the sensitivity to more or less a third.
Battlezone should now be set-up correctly and your
Digital 3D device should be detected within the game.
6.6 Grouping units in Battlezone using the Digital 3D device
You will notice that the standard Battlezone profile
has no CTRL key assigned to group units (Feel free to
change the profile to your needs). To group units,
hold down the CTRL key on your keyboard. The reason why
we did that? It is now possible to group more than five
units to one group. Having CTRL under a device button
would not allow grouping of more than five units.
The issues described here are problems we are aware of. If you
find any more, please send an e-mail to our service support.
Please describe your problem as accurately as possible,
including Steps on how to recreate the problem.
We hope you enjoy our products.
