Re: How do I get the game to use my HOTAS?

I too am having similar issues. Playing through Origin, using Thrustmaster 4 where is all connected to 1 USB cable, and the throttle doesnt work, but the joystick does. I have tried every combination of settings in the Thrustmaster utility etc. I have rebooted the game after each change.

Verified drivers are most current on stick and software.

Checked that it works in MS Flight Sim just fine

Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS 4 (only has 1 USB cord to connect/disconnect)

THROTTLE --> Not working

STICK---------->Wokring

@SuperChadMonkey Exact same experience here. Having to use the rocker on the thrust handle for temporary thrust boost/reduction (with PS button toggled to red). :[

Having same issues. TM Warthog and Throttle are recognized. SWS can t detect my MFG v2 rudder because i have more than 3 devices. With other sims i don t have problems with my 5 devices.

Bumping this. They say fixes are in work, but only mention the dead zone issue. Please tell me they are going to fix this too....it is widespread.

Same issue with my virpil MT50 throttle. Game detects my Vkb gunfighter stick and MFG crosswind pedals but nothing I do will convince the game I have my throttle plugged in. Steam sees it, windows sees it, every other blasted game sees it but not squadrons. It's infuriating.
