Hi,
I just installed Flight Simulator, and I have a big problem:
I once had an X-52 HOTAS, and the joystick broke. I continue to use only the throttle, and pair it with a T1600M joystick. In every other game so far (including FSX) that is no problem. I want funktion A; I use this button on the X-52 throttle. I want funktion B, I use another button on the T1600M.
But in the new flight sim, I need to choose my input device on the top, and then in the menu below where you map your controls, you seem only to be able to assign buttons from that specific device? If I choose the T1600M, go to throttle and want to assign the X-52 throttle axis, it tells me something like "You are trying to assign a button from a device that is not selected". Yeah I know that, but what is the problem of using the throttle axis of that particular device instead of the T1600M?
I am really hoping that I am missing something, otherwise it feels really weird that this should not be possible. Do I need to buy another HOTAS although owning a joystick and a throttle?
Thanks for your advice...
