Since April, I've been working and iterating a profile for ROF.  The profile has been developed under the following ergonomic goals:

1. All Engine controls on Throttle
2. All Flight controls on Joystick
3. Only two layers (versus three)
4. Integrate with ROF viewing system
5. Include Cougar Trim
6. Maximize ROF default macro's for ease of installation

Here's a graphic of the "map":


The commands indicated in parenthesis (), colored white - are the only commands you should have to manually assign (TrackIR/Teamspeak/Pilot head zoom/fuel mixture).

To install:

1. Extract the files in this archive into your /Foxy/files folder, open in foxy and download to your cougar https://webspace.utexas.edu/joem/ROF/Cougar%20Profiles%20for%20ROF/Rise_of_Flightjmc-TX-Gunslinger-1.009.zip.

2. Replace the contents of Rise of Flight/data/LuaScripts/snapview directory with those in this archive (after backing up your original files!) https://webspace.utexas.edu/joem/ROF/Cougar%20Profiles%20for%20ROF/TX-Gunslinger%20ROF%20snapviews.zip

3. Manually assign those commands which are 3rd party or Microsoft DirectX oriented.

4. Print out the profile map (picture above) and place next to your computer for reference as you learn the system Smiley

The commmands "Tachometer view", "Compass view", "Gunsight 1" and "Gunsight 2" replace the default views for Numpad 9/Numpad 8/Numpad 0/Numpad ., as TrackIR renders them redundant.

The enclosed view files have been modified to work in the following manner:

SPAD XIII Example:


FOKKER Dr.I Example:


Be careful with the "Save Snap View" Command on Hat 2.  It requires holding down S2, however I'd recommend you write protect the contents of your view folders, just in case you hit it by accident while your hands "learn" this profile.

Hopefully some will find it useful...
