Re: Joystick Support

This is the same problem I have. Some of the most common sticks are being force-recognized as X-input and they are not.

Tried:

X52

X52 Pro

G27 Logitech wheel (x-input for steering is the only thing that works, none of the buttons work)

    It's refreshing to hear good news, glad it's working out for you, enjoy 😉 

  • Tried with the X52 pro.

    It still does not work. 

    I have an Xbox Series X controller for use for ground vehicles and an x52 pro for planes/choppers. 

    The X52 pro still does not work, you cannot assign buttons.  It conflicts with mouse and keyboard.

    I don't know why this is so hard to fix. This is the only software where the x52 is not recognized. It's asinine. 

    The X52 is perhaps the most common flight stick.

    @GasStationPizzas This is my issue too. Worked fine in 4 & V, even in Star Wars Squadrons. No matter what I turn off or disable, it insists on acting like a mouse and causing a non-stop pirouette. TBH though the Logitech software for the X52 is far less useful than the previous SD6 Saitek software.
  • I even tried blanking the profile tool in the case that was conflicting.

    Nothing. 

    I have moved on from this game.  It was a bust. Arguably the worst of the series ever.  The ineptitude of the developers to pay attention to previous games is crazy. 

    I grew somewhat hopeful with Joystick support, but appears to be lip-service.

    Also uses Saitek x52 pro.
    That was one of the reasons why I did not buy the game. It's ridiculous that it's still not fixed.

    That's mega disappointing I thought that it was all sorted a while back.

    I use a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro and it's been working fine so far; I don't know why one joystick would work but another doesn't?

    @Ironhead841 Maybe I’ll dig out my old 3D Pro. The X52 is so much better but I cannot figure out how to fly jets with mouse + keyboard. Helis sure, but I lack the dexterity I guess. I’m getting old ya know? 😉
