Re: Only the first four controller devices are available to be selected

Got my TM Warthog working but the rudder paddles are not recognized in-game.

The Steam-controller-untick-generic trick didn't work. Strange enough the paddles show up in Steam in that controller section but not my Warthog. Tried the unplug other controller trick to no avail.

The stick, throttle and paddles work in every other game. Can't think of anything else to try out.

    If anyone is interested, i've fixed it using Vjoy and and Joystick Gremlin.

    The game detected the Vjoy input so i could assign an axis to it. In this case my rudder pedals.

    First install Vjoy: i didn't do anything here particular.

    Then installed Joystick Gremlin(JG): it detected all my peripherals, didn't do anything special here.

    Hit the activate button(the controller pad icon in JG, booted up the game and the Vjoy got detected. Now i could assign my yaw to that axis and it worked.

    Now fix that bloody deadzone issue!

    Hope this helps for everybody who's having the same issues i had.

    Cheers!

    @Scar_Wardjinn I did this. Thanks for the tip! However after using this to get the rudder recognized, I'm finding that some of my joystick buttons are no longer recognized in game - only 3 of 4 hat switch directions are recognized, for example. Have you seen anything similar to this when troubleshooting your rudder issues?
  • You're welcome!

    I didn't set up anything within Vjoy and Joystick Gremlin. I just installed it, never even opened Vjoy, ran JG and clicked on the activation icon.

    That's all i did. All my buttons are working fine though. I use the Thrustmaster Warthog and VKB T-Rudders.

    What joystick/Hotas you use?

    See attachment, this is a standard configuration i think. Hope it helps.
