I want to assign mouse ministick on X52 as an axis on DCS but I really don't want to mess with the terrible joystick or sacrifice one of the other axis' like this method: https://www.reddit.com/r/hotas/comments/2rs6un/how_to_turn_x55_mouse_ministick_into_joystick_axes/cnsl4ew/

Hi
I have a X52 pro as well.
In order to have a constant behavior of my joystick I always open first the game controller window -> properties
THEN I start the game (DCS , Elite, FS2020, you name it) with the properties window still opened.
I can set the right pinkie switch as a modifier without a problem, and my mini stick & related buttons are no longer recognized as a mouse, which is perfectly fine by me.
I haven't tried to set the mode wheel as a modifiers though.
I don't mess with the joystick software and not I'm not intending to
hope this helps.
Thanks, this does the job.

This map would be a lot of fun with F-5A, Mirage F1, Century Series aircraft, A-7 and F-4's.

Sometimes i can bind and use them as buttons, sometimes i can't. Please help.

Any news on MiG-19S ?

The Viggen is in desperate need for a lighting overhaul.
Position lights (the small white lights on the trailing edge) being borked (half of them always on, even cold and dark regardless of light settings), the anti-collision light shining through things it shouldn't, the EP13 still missing its brightness controls. The HUD colours going a bit funky at night (for some reason it starts have turquoise symbology, while the numbers stay the normal green).
The rest of the cockpit lights seem fine from where I'm at, just it would be nice to have a clickable RADAR filter.
I am sure I saw EP13 brightness and contrast bindings avaible on controls.

Hi Barbar, thank you very much for the kind upload.
Where do I find the options to enable clutch and disable latched options.
Sorry for being a pain in the proverbial, I got no clue as I'm a bit of a Biff when it comes to these things.
Thanks in advance.
You are welcome Atlas. Unlike what I said, I think enabling clutchmode does not affect DCS seeing pinkie and mode switches. I enabled it and it worked for once, but DCS keeps unseeing those buttons so i am sorry for misinforming you. If you still want to enable or disable clutch modes, you need to go to Windows Control Panel>View devices and printers, right click on X52 and click game controller settings, make sure the X52 is selected and click Properties, then click MFD and you should see clutch mode options on bottom right of the window.

At least you have the software, been trying to get hold of it for ages and the downloadable version is 32 bit and won't run on my system.
If you want dcs to see your pinkie and mode switches, you should enable clutch mode and disable latched clutch option.If you still want the terrible software, I uploaded 64 bit version for you.

Oh, there are a lot of differences internally between the attack AJ(S) attack Viggen and the JA fighter Viggen. The latter has a digital moving map display and data link among other things.
I would love to see this variant in DCS.

It can be done, you just have to do it a little differently. If you use it as a MODIFIER SWITCH (toggles the modifier ON/OFF) it works. Just tried it and if you have it as a straight MODIFIER that you have to hold it doesn't seem to. As an example, I have my caplock key as a modifier SWITCH. When CAPS LOCK is ON then the joystick key I have bound to OSB 8 on my LDDI (I use it for controlling map scale) becomes the modified version that controls the OSB 8 on my MPCD instead (you can turn any key into a switch that toggles the modifier on/off, I use caplocks to have the visual indication of it's current state). I can use the Weapons release button with caps lock ON or OFF.
Thanks a lot.

This software is driving me crazy.

Let's say we have 2 buttons:
X: Modifier button
A: Release weapons by default, no commands with a modifier binded.When I press the A button it works and releases weapons. But when I press it while holding down the X button, it doesn't do anything.
What I mean is, is it possible using a command with no modifiers binded while holding down a modifier?Thanks.

Delete the controller profile in Saved Games.
I couldn't find any controller profiles in saved games.

You can't delete them all. You have to have at least one shiftsate. But delete the button in that shiftstate by right clicking on it and choose No Buttons.
But once again, there's absolutely no point to using the software if you're gonna do this. Just uninstall the software.
I uninstalled the software before i make this thread, DCS still didn't detect those buttons so i reinstalled it.

Because they're set as shift state in X52 software. You have to go to Grid views, delete all the shiftstate and modes that uses those buttons.
But then, why are you using X52 software if you're gonna use them as buttons?
When i delete all the shiftstates and save the profile and try to open it, it says ''Failed to open file''

I didn't know what the software does. Im planning to set them as modifiers on DCS control settings. Thanks a lot for helping.

Hi, just got my X52 today, i plugged it in and run DCS. At first, it detected mode and pinkie switches. Then i closed DCS and installed X52 software and DCS no longer detects mode and pinkie switches. Please help.

No, DCS doesn't simulate IFF transponders at all. They're all just magically working, so you can sucessfully interrogate any aircraft, including WW2 aircraft and aerobatic aircraft like the Christen Eagle II.
I know that's ridiculous for such a high level flight sim like DCS, but that's just how it is
Any plans for detailed IFF in DCS?

Not that I'm aware of. More modern versions of the RB-15 can, but not the one carried by the Viggen as far as I know.
I know. I wonder if it is possible to manipulate the missile logic to make it hit ground targets.

Like runways, bases, crowded sam sites etc. ? If yes, How?

Is it possible to bind mode and pinkie switches of X52 as buttons on DCS without using the joystick software?

I can assign mouse related buttons on DCS with no problem, but I can't assign the mini stick as an axis.
