Hey all I have the Strategic Commander also, but know longer have the software. I was looking around on the Internet and found version 4.0. Would this be the final version, or is there a newer one still out there? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Trek6500 -- trek6500 |

Sidewinder Strategic Commander problems
Hi guys. Sorry about the delay in updates. Time is my worst enemy !! I didn't get as much done as I had hoped I would, but still made alot of progress. So without further ado here is the list of updates... File Save and Load now completed. (Stored in My Documents\Strategic Commander\) Each Button now has a description which can be edited in the key assignment section. New Function button setup. Can be mouse clicked or button clicked to open each section. (You'll see what i mean when you run it :P) I think this update makes it a fully useful tool. Still not where I would like to be at though. As always, any bugs/suggestions would be very much appreciated. @Bone-Daddy, I'll test it in C&C 3 in the coming days and see if it works. And yes any donations would be much appreciated. Thanks I wasn't really expecting anything, but I did have to outlay a little cash for the USB reading library. If anybody wants to donate just PM me and I'll give you my PayPal details. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: StrategicSetupv0.4.zip | |Download: http://vista64.net/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=4025| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- BODYPRINT |

Sidewinder Strategic Commander problems
Update with testing Setupv0.4: I assigned the "H" key for button 2 and it did respond in C&C 3. I assigned the "END" key for button 5 and it did not respond in C&C 3. I reassigned the move buttons replacing the w,s,a,d keys with the arrow/direction keys (located below the "END" key - not the number pad keys with arrow/direction keys on 8, 2, 4, 6). No dice. The move function emulated the number keys: 8, 2, 4, 6. It was limited testing today. In the next few days, I'll try to load up at least 6-8 buttons and see what happens. Hope this helps in any regard. -- Bone_Daddy |

Heres another quick update. This should fix the problem Bone Daddy reported with certain special keys not working. I needed to add an extension value for these keys. If you come across any more please let me know. I think I've got all of the important ones. Also let me know if it stuffs up any other keys. NOTE: You will need to disable the Walk function for this to work properly in C&C and any similar map type programs. There will be another update soon. I'm not 100% certain the save function is working properly. I'll also set the Walk function to disabled by default, considering the type of games this controller is mainly used for. I might also add a calibration option. Someone said there's wasn't centered. I don't see how, but I'll add the feature anyway See Ya !! +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: StrategicSetupv0.41.zip | |Download: http://vista64.net/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=4174| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- BODYPRINT |

Here's another update !! arty:arty:arty: IMPORTANT !! PREVIOUS PROFILE SAVES WILL NOT WORK !! In this update... Added Calibration (Tools menu) Profiles now save ALL settings. That includes Dead Zones, Enabled/Disabled Options and Calibrations. Default profile is now loaded at startup. Walk feature is now Disabled by default. I think that's all Next feature to pretty much bring this to what I feel is deserving of Version 1.0 is Key Combinations, of course. I've been avoiding this one, but it's time to nut it out I think. Once again, please report back to me how it's working for you all. Thanks. And a BIG thanks to the kind donators. You have been very generous Have Fun !! +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: StrategicSetupv0.5.zip | |Download: http://vista64.net/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=4203| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- BODYPRINT |

@ Body - Great release with .041. Can't wait to try this one! Tested the special keys and they are working. w00t! This is going to be huge. I have been reading so much from fans of the Strategic Commander that they won't upgrade to Vista because of the lack of support. Now they will have that option again with a great engine provided by BODYPRINT. Well done! I'll promote the hell out of this engine and hopefully get you some more donators. I'll be testing Counter Strike Source, Age of Empires: The Age of Kings: The Conquerors, and possibly Cod4. -- Bone_Daddy |
