problem X-55 Rhino

Hi.

I have a problem with my x-55 rhino. It seems that every time I start DCS I have to reprogram the axis and every button, I have also saved the mapping but that don´t work. It´s not fun to have to program the controller every time I want to play. If I choose to save my mapped key. do I for example has to make one file for keyboard, one for stick, one for throttle. For every aircraft?

I also unmount my X-5 Rhino when I´m done playing if that cause the loss of mapped controls.

Have you checked the files in

C:\Users\{username}]\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input

to see if they're marked as readonly?

The shouldn't be, and not that it helps, but I don't have this problem with my X-55.

Try to use powered USB with x-55, that fixes the random inputs problem,maybe that will help with your problem. x-55 need more voltage from the usb.

Windows 10?

Use the in-game profiler, you need to save profiles for axis, and buttons, so two for each controller, the throttle is a totally seperate controller from the stick, their both seperate from the keyboard, so to save your stick profile, click on an axis or button in the x-55 stick category, then save it, then to save your throttle profile, click on a button or axis in the throttle category and save it.

yes, you need to set controls for every plane, all the fc-3 planes really could just be 1 profile, since their all simplified down to the point where they basically use the same number of keys for the same systems, even if iconography, locations and names are slightly different visually in the cockpit... but their not 1 profile...

but for the non-fc3 planes, there are enough differences between them that, although there are still a lot of controls you can set the same for every plane, you do need seperate profiles for them.

unplugging your stick and throttle won't affect profiles, just make sure to plug them in before you start dcs.

Yes. Win 10.

Hadwell: I have always done the thing you say. but it do not work. Or sometimes the A10C "remembers my mapping".

One thine that is weird are that when I checking the mapping in option. both the stick and throttle are default configure pitch, roll, yaw and thrust. at same time. so I have to clear the mapped axis on the throttle to not make conflict with the stick.

I assume that is all works correct. I should save all my mapped keys, axis, and I dont have to program. and the Save/load profile are only good if I choose to example. reinstall DCS.

I tried to delete the stick and throttle lua file, in the config folder in every aircraft. and made my own new mapping in option and saved the new file in the config/aircraft folder for each aircraft and Stick, throttle. Just for fun I restarted the game but the dcs still make some default mapping, and I have to reload every profile again. Did not work to delete and create my own.

Hi,

I guess you have the latest win10 drivers

DCS-FAQ

My input devices don’t work ( joystick axes work incorrectly, buttons click don’t work, etc.) What should I do?

I would make more

Make screenshots from your option-settings ( graphics, gameplay, ... )

C:\Users\ your account \Saved Games\DCS

Copy the folder ...\DCS for a backup - if you want to restore files from ...\missions, ...\tracks, ...\screenshots

Delete the folder ...\DCS

Run a repair : All programs \ Eagle Dynamics \ Repair (as admin)

Start DCS and test your joystick-settings without saving anything to a profile

If you klick "OK" when leaving the configuration window the settings should be saved ( and loaded with every DCS-start )

For some problem-threads was the solution : Delete ...\DCS + repair

Edit ###################

I don`t know whether the X55 has the same behavior and may cause connection-problems

( the X52 uses only one USB-port)

I learned one thing for my X52 Pro

Install the driver

Connect to a USB-port

MARK the USB-port

NEVER EVER use another USB-port (plug-out/plug-in actions)
