How do I get the game to use my HOTAS?
I have a Saitek x-52. It's hooked up, but the game's not recognizing it. It's set to keyboard and mouse. Maybe a dumb question, but I don't see where to switch it to HOTAS controls, Thanks

I realize you were replying to the other user but in interest of keeping discussion going on the issue:
Using the origin version so whatever the steam problems are shouldn't be affecting me.
Drivers/Firmware up to date. Have verified game files.
Using a Thrustmaster TWCS Throttle + T.16000M flight stick
Xbox controller works w/ no issues.
@khilendel Steam users can disable the control layer per game by adjust the settings within steam.
That said, I'm also having issues having the game detecting one of my VKB GF3s and my MFG CWv2s.

Ill give it a shot @Lobstar911
Bummed im now missing all the preorder bonuses, but I guess that's the price I'll pay to work around this broken game.
guys, if SWS doesn't see one of your peripherals, use joystick gremlin to force the game to see your vjoy device.
The game wouldn't see my rudder pedals because steam doesn't see them either, and using joystick gremlin fixed the issue!
I almost asked for a refund as well, as in 2020 you shouldn't have to do this, but this is actually not too bad of a fix.
Update: Same problem on Steam. Tried with Steam controls forced on and off.
I would wait for a fix but don't want to risk losing my refund rights while the community is skilling up, so I guess this game ain't for me.
Appreciate your help @Lobstar911 and other posters here - EA, I hope you do right by those who choose to wait for a fix.
- @khilendel the funny thing is, even if steam doesn't see your peripheral, games that run with Steam like DCS, IL-2 or MSFS2020 will still be able to "see" them. SWS can't for some reason.
