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.
Windows assigns its own order to the USB devices it recognizes as game controllers. As a flight sim enthusiast, I have 2 USB MFDs plugged in in addition to a separate stick, throttle, and rudders. Windows at boot always assigns my MFDs as device 1 and 4. The game does not recognize the MFDs as controllers since they have no axis, and only recognizes my throttle and rudders as windows assigns my stick as device 5. If I unplug the MFDs, I can assign the proper axis in game and play. It is just a bother to have to climb under the desk to disconnect the MFDs and then plug them back in when I am done playing. Can you patch the game to allow it to look for 5 devices and assign 3? thank you.
