I have 7 game controllers attached, but the game only allows me to choose from (presumably) the first four it encounters when it enumerates the list of available controllers.
My flight stick, rudder pedals and throttle are apparently at the wrong end of that list and as a result are not made available for mapping in-game.
After so much chatter that HOTAS would work. You would think that the one pure flying game released would have access to HOTAS use. Yet we have to remap everything to mimic a game pad and the dead zones are awful. On TOP of having a brand new HOTAS it doesnt even recognized the throttle control. What the hell EA. Reading from other forums such as reddit many people like myself have already refunded the game. HUGE disappointment.
You could try going here
Documents\STAR WARS Squadrons Steam\settings
find "ProfileOptions_profile_synced"
there more options in there than what is in the game, like all 4 Joystick Device inputs.
I'm sure you could mainly type in each the device as well as further tweak the deadzones beyond what is in the game.
GstInput.JoystickDevice1
GstInput.JoystickDevice2
GstInput.JoystickDevice3
GstInput.JoystickDevice4
GstInput.JoystickPitchDeadzone 0.000000
GstInput.JoystickPitchSensitivity 0.500000
GstInput.JoystickRollDeadzone 0.000000
GstInput.JoystickRollSensitivity 0.500000
GstInput.JoystickThrottleDeadzone 0.000000
GstInput.JoystickThrottleSensitivity 0.500000
GstInput.JoystickYawDeadzone 0.000000
GstInput.JoystickYawSensitivity 0.500000
I have almost no issues with my 20 year old MSFFB2. Not so much with a more recent X52 Pro. Rudder pedals are also responding just fine and I’m using them for yaw control and getting very precise kills.
I own two Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS (the Space Sim Duo pack) but the ProfileOptions_profile_synced file lists the folllowing devices:
GstInput.JoystickDevice1
GstInput.JoystickDevice2
GstInput.JoystickDevice3
GstInput.JoystickDevice4
so, as you see, it lists none.
ingame, the controlle rmenu does not show any controllers or sticks below the deadzone sliders as it does with basically anyone else, which probably is due to the not-listing-any-stick as seen above. I can, however, access, remap and use one of the two. I cannot, however, use both as intended - as opposed to other people who apparently use the same setup. wtf here?
Question: What do I need to put into the above list as names for my two sticks AS THEY HAVE THE SAME NAME
