Rykane Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 (edited) Hi guys, I decided that I would make a DCS:A-10C profile for my Saitek X-55 Rhino. This profile is heavily based off of Shein's X-55 Rhino profile but I've added a few adjustments and a few more buttons. I will update the profile whenever I have time if I find something that needs fixed or if I find a better assignment for a key. *Note* I have assigned the speedbrake switch forward/aft to two different keys, If the speedbrake switch forward/aft buttons are assigned to the slider it will only act as a toggle which means you cannot enable or disable the speedbrakes incrementally. I have also included a set of .lua files for the 1.2.8 Open Beta. I found a bug where the previous set of .lua files where unable to load within the beta so I made another set. They are unreliable and have a tendency to not load correctly. If the 1.2.8 .lua files don't work try the other set of files. Anyone is able to edit this profile as they see fit, if you don't like where a button is assigned you can change it around. Don't forget to post it up on the forums for other people to try out too. Rykane's X-55 Rhino A-10C Profile HOTAS Layout Installation Instructions 1. Unzip/Unrar the file anywhere on your computer (preferably your desktop) 2. You will see the following: 3. Load up the game and goto Settings -> Controls -> Layer: A-10C Sim - All 4. Click on the keyboard category (click any keybind within the column) and click load profile and browse to where you extracted the files. Click OK. 5. Repeat step 4 for the x-55 throttle and stick. (In order to identify which column is which hover over the "Saitek Pro Flight X-55" heading in the column and it will show which device it is.) 6. Once step 4 and 5 are completed make sure the axis are assigned correctly. To do this click axis assign at the bottom of the page. Double check that the X, Y, RZ( If you have rudder pedals you can clear this axis assignment) and Throttle X and Y are set to the correct bindings. 7. Quit the game and go to the following path on your computer, C:\Users\Public\Documents\Mad Catz\X-55 Rhino 8. Copy the RykanesX55a10cprofile-v0.1.pr0 file into this directory and load up the X-55 Software 9. Right click the software icon in the task bar tray (notification area) and select RykanesX55a10cprofile 10. That should be you set, load up the game, happy flying and have fun moving mud! If you have any questions please PM me or reply to my thread within the forums. I will do my best to reply to you. Thanks. I'm also going to try and make profiles for all the other modules when I have time. Rykane's X-55 A-10C Profile - v0.1.zip Edited April 6, 2014 by Rykane
TangoDown332 Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 Hello, I tried to use your profile but the files will not show up in the file browser. I was wondering if this has happened before and if you knew how to fix it.
71st_Mastiff Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 very nice! will try this out on my 4 day weekend, thank you very much!!

Mercutio24 Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Its because he only gave us the .lua files. DCS now uses diff.lua files. That's why you cannot see them. I wish someone who has the diff.lua would post them on behalf of the original poster.
Rykane Posted July 1, 2014 Author Posted July 1, 2014 Hey, Sorry for the late reply. I will try and make some .diff.lua files but at the moment I'm quite busy. I'll try get them done ASAP. Thanks for your patience.
71st_Mastiff Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 any one know where I can find the new X55 drivers? the Saitek web site no longer exists, says it was recently placed into the market place? they go out of business? http://www.saitekusa.com "any failure you meet, is never a defeat; merely a set up for a greater come back", W Forbes.

71st_Mastiff Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 ok I see madcatz must f bought them out, so I tried to install and guess what its freezing on the setup it installed drivers but then it freezes' when trying to install the bulk software,, :joystick: "any failure you meet, is never a defeat; merely a set up for a greater come back", W Forbes.

71st_Mastiff Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 ok had to force update for the bulk part of drivers, in properties, the profiler doesn't show up in the task bar? like the old version so its hard to change profiles on the fly.

Jesse Lacey Posted July 24, 2014 Posted July 24, 2014 I've been using this profile for the A-10C and it works really well minus the slew control. It seems to have some issues, not sure if it's a mfg defect or what, but sometimes I just use the keyboard for slewing. But I'm wonder if you could make a profile for the Ka-50, I got the basic controls but for some reason the trim controls are the buttons to lock targets and weapon release changes the selected weapon so it's a tad strange. Any help would be appreciated, I was able to use it very well considering how simple locking on is, but would still like to know more about what does what in that chopper.

genbrien Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 I'm trying to make a profile for the X-55 but I don't know how to assign the ministick to ''slew''?
