X52 profile not interfacing with DCS


Recommended Posts

Hello and thanks in advance,

 

I am trying to use the Saitek X52 software to control the A10. The Saitek software works, it installed the drivers correctly, and it loads profiles properly but doesn't interface with DCS. When viewing the Saitek profile software and clicking a button, say for trim, it does do the action within the software and indicates default keybindings within DCS, but does nothing in DCS. In DCS my keybindings are all default, and there is no profile loaded for the Saitek X52. According to multiple forum posts, it should work right off the bat, but it is not. A DCS support ticket said to delete the input folders in the "Saved Games-DCS/DCS openalpha" folders. After doing so it still does not work. Any thoughts? -Mike

Problem has been resolved. Turns out small blue crosshair button next to "Views" within the Saitek software was not loading the profile unless it ran as admin. Always run as admin folks. :D -Mike

 

Mike,

 

Make sure your file properties in the /User/DCSXX are not set to "Read Only." Otherwise you'll spend a lot of time reprogramming your settings.
