Instructions:
=============
- Install the game.
- Install the helicopters update (optional but recommended) - RealFlight3_00_366HeliUpdate.exe
or the latest update that you have for the game, 3.50.0.44 version is: RealFlight3_50_044.exe
- Run the launcher and use our serial numbers -> 00513084-G3-1060111268 and 3987906-I2-016913
- Copy the emu.exe Emulator to the installation program directory typically
at X:\\Program Files\\RealFlightG3
- Make sure you have at least one joystick configured and connected.
If you are using the older G2 joystick go to Control Panel/Game Controllers/Add
Select Custom and select a 4 Axis Joystick, in Controller Name type: G3 and click
OK to add the joystick.
Make sure that in the Joystick list it shows OK.
If you have other joystick and not the older G2 one, just make sure it appears on the
joystick list otherwise add it.
- Run the Emu.exe Emulator from the program directory and press "Launch G3".
- After the simulator was loaded, from the simulator menu select Controller/Select Controller
and select the "Interlink Joystick (G2)"
- Select Controller/Controller Calibration in order to calibrate your joystick.
- After calibration is done, you can press "2" and see the joystick controls appear on the
screen. This will help you see if the joystick is configured ok.
- Use CTRL-F and CTRL-G to control the flaps and gear.
- Enjoy !!
Known issues and special configuration:
=======================================
- Emulator
The emulator works with versions: 3.0.0.313, 3.0.0.366 , 3.0.0.410 , 3.0.0.430, 3.0.0.448, 3.50.0.33
and 3.50.0.44 of RealFlight.exe.
If you get "Unknown Realflight version !!!" , you are using a new or unknown realflight version,
future to come emulator for this version will be available soon.
- Loading Errors:
Sometimes when the game tries to load it throws ugly errors saying "Error creating effect xxxx"
or something similar and halts, it can be right on the start or after 180 elements or so ...
This is caused by your Video Card Adapter that is not 100% compatible with DirectX 9.0c.
Check out: http://12.156.2.54/forums/showthread.php?t=9243 or seek google for this error.
You will need a quite newish card in order to run this simulator.
If you still want to to overcome this problem you can try and select the
"Try to overcome loading problems" checkbox in the Emulator this may actually work in some
cases but not guaranteed.
Sometimes using this flag can just hang the game when it is trying to load
- Joystick Configuration:
By default this game is built for a 4 Axis joystick.
You can use an older Joystick version from the G2 game and it will run smoothly.
If some Axis of the joystick are opposite you can use the Controller/Channel Mapping option
in the game to remap the controls to fit your joystick.
One problem exists though is that the older joystick does not have a channel for Flaps or Gear so
Flaps will be disabled using the older G2 control.
BUT - you can still use the emulator "Keyboard to Joystick mapping function" in order to map keyboard
keystrokes to joystick buttons and therefore you can play with Flaps and Gear

!!!
However, if you would like and try connecting other joysticks or even build one of your
own I recommend using PPJoy and PPJoyJoy (do some google on it):

http://www.simtel.net/product.download.mirrors.php?id=75176
These 2 programs let you map an existing joystick or keyboard to another joystick.
You can try and play with these in combination with the emulator.
If you are having problems using your joystick and the emulator, you can try and configure the
emulator to map into your joystick channels.
In order to do that, run the RF from the Emulator and then press "2" inside the game,
this will show the joystick controls on the screen.
Now select the "X1 Axis" in the Emulator and select a number from 1 - 60 and go back to the
simulator and try to move the X1 Axis of your joystick in order to see if it affects the control
in the game or not. Usually the mapping for the axis controls are in steps of "4",i.e. 0,4,8,12,16,
20,24,28 etc ...
If it does affect so you have probably found the right value for this Axis, if not you should
select another number and repeat the test and so on ....
Repeat this procedure for the all of the Axis list in the Emulator until done.
Make sure that after finding all the Axis mappings, you need to select the Controller Calibration
from the menu and calibrate the joystick otherwise it won\'t be configured and calibrated right.
- USB/Serial and real R/C devices.
Sometimes when using USB or Serial interfaces, the calibration of the sticks might not work well.
Many users complain that the "Finish" button is dimmed and cannot be pressed when trying to
calibrate the joystick or their R/C. This usually happens when RF cannot sense the full motion of
the sticks or identify all the axis. Another problem that might occur is that RF can indeed
calibrate the sticks but the sticks won\'t move to their full edges, i.e. cannot issue a full down
or full up or full throttle etc.
In order to solve these cases, you can try and play with the "Signal Fix" feature. Select the
problematic axis and check the Signal Fix checkbox. After doing so and while the game is active
of course move the stick in full motion circle few times in order for the emulator to be able to
calibrate it.
The min and max values set the range for the axis to be reported to RF. Feel free to play and
change these values in order to find what suites your configuration most. The current values are
just a suggestion and might not work well in your case.
When the sticks are responding to your satisfaction, get back to the emulator screen and select
the "Lock Calibration" checkbox in order to maintain the calibration for the rest of the session
and save the calibration data in the emulator for good, otherwise the calibration might be lost
when selecting new aircrafts or reloading the game.
I am using the following configuration that works ok for me:
- Futaba T6XA R/C with a PPM to Serial converter.
- PPJoy running on Com Serial mode.
- Following configuration in Emulator:
X1 -> 0
Y1 -> 8 [x]Signal Fix, min:0 max: 29000
X2 -> 20
Y2 -> 4 [x]Signal Fix, min:0 max: 29000
Flaps->12
Button1->24
Button2->12
