    MouseYoke for MSFS - Fly using your mouse in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020! - Image 2

    Description

    MouseYoke for MSFS (github)

    This is a small script written in Python that lets you fly with your mouse in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. (Why is this not implemented in the game yet?).

    How does it work?

    The script is always listening for the mouse position and it transforms that into an xbox controller input. It also listens for the scroll wheel position, that way, you can use it as a throttle.

    Installation

    You MUST have Python installed on your computer to run the script. You can find Python here.

    Even though the process is relatively straightforward, I made a video showing step-by-step how to install the script. Have a look at it here! 

    But if you prefer to read...
    1. To run the script, just open the file run.bat. The first time you open the file, it will take 1-2 minutes because it will install some dependencies that are necessary for it to run properly. After the first time, it will open almost instantly.
    2. Set the bindings in the game. When you're doing so, make sure to remove ALL bindings that are set by default for xbox controllers, and leave only the axes that you need (which are only three). #Refer to picture 2.
    3. Clear all the "filters" that the game adds to the xbox controller under the sensitivity tab. Leave it as raw as you can. #Refer to picture 3.

    Done!

    You can modify the "master_key" key inside config.json to turn on or off the script. Currently, it doesn't support key combinations such as shift+s.

    // config.json

{
  "master_key": ",",
  "throttle_sensitivity": 20
}

    You will also find "throttle_sensitivity". It lets you set how many steps your throttle will have. The default value is 20, so each step would equal 5% of thrust.

    Note: This script doesn't require any external software, like vJoy or Virtual Controller.

     

    Future updates:

    - Making an in-game tool (widget) is currently being analized.

    Happy flying!

    Doesn't seem to work anymore. I installed everything and run the script, activate it with "," and it says "active" - but it doesn't register mouse movements and can't calibrate it. Have seen comments on youtube instruction videos saying the same thing...

    simple and reliable, however i would add a better interface to the commands, as well as give the ability to switch between rudder and yoke controls y pressing some other key or holding onto the set key...

    Hello there, and thank you very much for this addon. But, I have a problem. I did everything explained in the video but mouse yoke works only if i select it over the Microsoft Flight Simulator. For example, in control options it won't recognize it unless I AltTab to run.bat. And when I enter back in the game, it just doesnt work. Any solution for that? Thanks

    THanks for making this! Im broke and dont have money for a flightstick, and this has saved me.
    My only problem is that the throttle also pans the world map and it doesnt reset back to 50. Maybe change the throttle axis to the former rudder control?
    I'm currently looking for some other options. If the ingame one comes out i will more than likely switch back :)

    Hi there. I have set everything and it's works as intended, but now i only have one problem and others have it too for sure. If you run the game [it's doesn't matter if it's full screen or windowed] the scripts goes in background and you can't use the bindings of the scripts you have to put the game in background for it to work, how can i fix this? Or for now the only method is to play the game in background and the script in foreground? Thanks! :)

    Error: mouse_yoke.py is not reachable. Is it in the same path as run.bat?

    Hi, the default key is the comma (,). You can change this by opening the config.json file.

    Hello, I have been getting a problem with the script, will help me lot if you please provide me with the solution. So the problem is that I am not able to use the script in the background. The command box has to be in the msfs window and doesn't work in the background. It doesn't listen to the keys and mouse once the window is minimized.

    Hi

    It helps me a lot as disabled who cannot use a joystick. I basically use your script 1h a day since 3 months :) Thanks a lot


    But I m having trouble flying level whenever I resume after any "script pause" (virtual cockpit buttons mouse use, using the GTN750, LittleNavMap, FSRealistic, VAC charts...). When I resume the script it sends a new value input, different to the one it had few seconds before (when I pressed the key for pausing).


    Can you please try to work around it ?

    Getting a second key to reset to zero the axis ?


    My html/css knowledge is light to tackle it efficiently, and I m not sure I m ready to try chat gpt on that either ;D


    Thank you again

    Hi Mistral33, thank you so much for leaving a comment and for your feedback! It's super heartwarming to hear the use case you have :)


    Let me tell you that I am currently working on releasing a new, more polished version of the mod with cleaner code, a nice UI, and various additions based on user feedback. However, the development is progressing slowly due to other commitments I have to attend to.


    As it is for now: I edited the mod by adding a way to reset the axes to zero, and also now the mouse cursor remembers its last position. Remember to edit the config.json file and assign a hotkey for centering them.


    Hope you find it useful :)


    Best,

    Matias

    Hi Would it be possible to use the mouse as collective yoke axis for helicopters ?

    Historique des versions

    - Implemented a way to center all positional axes (x, y) by a hotkey. - Now the last position that the yoke had is remembered. This option can be enabled/disabled in config.json. - Bug fix: previously, any space in the folder structure would make the mod to fail. That bug is now solved.
