I have the same issue with my Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick. I cannot map the boost button nor the countermeasures button to my joystick. running drivers 4.60.349 dated 18/04/2005. hopefully a fix will come out in the next patch.

in order to remap the key to Air boost you need to do it manualy by editing the controls.con in your user profile.

Find the controls.con in your profile. Do a backup! Open controls.con with an editor. Find the helicopter section. Search for this line:

ControlMap.addKeyToTriggerMapping c_PISprint IDFKeyboard IDKey_LeftShift 0 0

This line maps LeftShift to Aircraft Boost. Insert a new Line:

ControlMap.addButtonToTriggerMapping c_PISprint IDFGameController_0 IDButton_6 0 1

To find out your Controller number and button id first map the button you want for boost to another function with the ingame menue (i.e. weapon select 5). Search this line in the helicopter section.

the booster key on walkers an cars in 212 is a Land booster key, you need the AIR booster key which is left over from BF2 code but none existent in 2142 control re-mapping screen. in order to remap the key to Air boost you need to do it manualy by editing the controls.con in your user profile. OR you can double tap forward

OK i just had another look at Endor and the AT-ST's dont boost,its a little strange as when in infantry mode you CAN run/boost.As a test ill see if remapping to a different key helps.

I dont beleive it does, it seems its a key mapping issue not a 'vehicles wont boost issue' ill try again on Endor and see if the walkers will boost or not and report back.

Well, the only thing I don't know about this, can the AT-ST run?

thx
