stubboyo Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) https://1drv.ms/u/s!ApPsQLVO18yXhF9wGWsZzbQMrUfA?e=7fBh3l Here is a layout I made for the X-55 for the Viper. It is originally based on Snelle's layout for another sim, but I made several changes. You will need to run the registry fix included that make the mouse nipple bindable as an x- and y- axis. This regfix is Snelle's and not mine at all. I would link to his original work, but that's a no-no. I also never installed the Saitek / Logitech software - just plugged in my stick. While you lose the ability to do advanced programming for the stick, you're saved from having to deal with H.U.D. and a lot of other headaches. Also this way you can bind the Mode switch to Master Arm / Safe / Sim, which is super cool. I included binding for the comms switch (VHF/UHF), though this isn't really necessary in DCS until they get the integrated radio working. I also use the paddle switch as a shift layer, as there weren't quite enough buttons, and the autopilot override is not used that commonly. Binding for the X-56 should be very similar, but you can move the CMS functions from the throttle hat to the stick's side hat to more closely mimic the real HOTAS. I added the arrow keys as the dobber on the ICP and the numpad keys as the main ICP keys. There are .luas for the keyboard, throttle, and stick, as well as the regfix and a diagram included. Edit: I swapped out the gsheet for a .xlsx file. I hadn't realized the gsheet was just a link.

Mirtma Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Thank you for that. How can I use diagram? It looks like gsheet, but it won't open in GDrive.

bell_rj Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Thanks for this. How did you get the rotaries to register in DCS? I'm trying to map HUD and HMCS brightness as you suggested but turning the knobs doesn't register in the control setting screen. PC specs: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stubboyo Posted October 4, 2019 Author Share Posted October 4, 2019 If you load the .luas they should already be bound. Are you using the axis assign screen instead of just they button assign screen? I may have used the wrong binds for the parking brake - you can just put the brake on, not take it off. I also used a bind for the idle detent that only allows you to start the engine rather than turn it off - this is nice so you accidentally don't turn off your engine, but requires you to use the keyboard for shutting down. Hope it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
