Arkani, thanks heaps for the Mec - just started using it now, and whilst I suck, I'm enjoying plugging while I get used to it! Gotta say I like the hybrid build too - works for me. I just have to learn how to remap some of the buttons now! And how to remap the joysticks as I aim with right/ move with left. Really impressed with the sensitivity of the aiming though also, which was a real surprise. Makes it much better for leading to compensate for lag:) If you have any programming tips, please let me know! Cheers mate, and thanks again.

Glad your having fun.
Im now as good with the hydra as with the keyboard/mouse.

By the way are you using MotionCreator program from Sixsense?
It allows you to edit the mce, with a simple UI.

Post our config, after your tweaks, here so others may try it out

I finally got around to trying out MWO with the Hydra, mainly thanks to the solo training mode and the upcoming analog leg turning support. All I can say is wow, how could I have ever played MWO with mouse and keyboard while this beautiful piece of technology was sitting in the closet?

Sure, the first few sessions are tough and setting up my ideal .mce is going to take a while, but even with a quickly put together, one-handed profile the game is already more fun to play. The aiming is just so smooth!

Ok just got my Hydra... im having some major problems... It only works outside of game.. as soon as i try in game nothing works. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Or did they do something in patches to disable?

Thank you,

I am still awaiting the "official" MW:O controller, which seems to have been in concept forever. There have been two revisions that I know of and it just so happens to be a Razer product also, haha!

Def use the MotionCreator... i listed my MCE config file above. Just drop that in your config and restart the app. actually you need to restart the app every time you make a change and save it. I am sure you will want to tweak the config to suit you. But it will get you started.

Thank you,

You need to set the MotionCreator to launch as Administrator Right-click on the shortcut and select properties... go to the Compatibility tab and on the bottom select "Run this program as an administrator." Now when you launch the only thing you will need the mouse for is your UAC if it is still enabled.

Thank you for that, I have also found a work around and will explain here for others that may be running windows 7. What to look for is if when you start MWO a security popup saying something about making changes to system. I used the link in the window to change the setting to its lowest. This has fixed the problem for me. I will also try the administrator thing also and post back here. I would rather run as administrator then reduce the security settings.
