ShuRugal Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Don't use the H.U.D. software to program the stick, do it in game. Saitek has never been very good with their profiling software, and the new H.U.D. is every bit as lousy as SST ever was. Only thing i use it for is calibrating the stick and setting my curves.
Foul Ole Ron Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Probably you were trying to get a combination of shift + some key which I've found to be a bit dodgy with SST. To get around it you can use the advanced commands in the SST software. Right click on the button that you want to program and there should be an option for New Advanced Command in the list. Give the command a descriptive name like you would normally. Then in the Repeat box enter in the command that you want e.g. SHIFT F. It might add in a couple of extra ones but just delete them so you're left with only one SHIFT F. Then right click again in the Repeat box and select Quantize Time. Select 0.000 as the time you want. Once you've done that you should see 0.000 under both the SHIFT and F buttons. Click OK then and you're done - should work fine now. Despite this little bit of hassle I find it easier to use SST than going through the game UI as you can give all the buttons proper names and it's a lot easier to keep track of what button you have assigned to what.
AdrianJ Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Hi I've got the same problem and it's driving me mad. I have to use Saitek's software because I use the rotary's as switches. There all working fine but one of the hats on the throttle sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, but always works when I clear the profile. I'm only using the button presses from the hat in game. ShuRugal have you tried DIView for calibrating it seems really good.
Regamuffin Posted January 27, 2015 Author Posted January 27, 2015 now the problem iv got is say i set up the x55 via the hud but go into dcs world game settings to make sure the right key presses are getting done when i press the button on the say joystick i just get the said button number no action to match the key press via the hud??
