new SF activation through Saitek X45

[redeagleGER]

Hallo

 

I changed my joystick from an old Logitech Wingman Extreme to Saitek X45 now. The problem is that Lockon 1.1 and the starforce**** wants me to make a new actvation when I load a profile to my X45 but i have no activations left. I can only start lockon when i load an "empty profile".

To change a joystick shouldnt has an effect of 30% hardware change :icon_roll

 

What can i do, i have no registrations left? Thx.

If it only asks for an activation when you have a profile loaded, then there's something wrong with your profile.

 

I had a similar thing with my X-52 when I first got it. Firstly I found by cancelling the activation screen and restarting FC I was able to get it working....But the profile still didn't work.

 

Eventually I realised that I'd set up the profile badly and had a setting that was constantly sending out keypresses. I changed the profile to correct the problem and the requests for activation stopped.

 

I suspect that the CP software interprets the constant keypresses as a suspect script trying to run, so it kicks in.

i just uninstal and reinstal the latest divers for both the joy and the stt software

Jester u r the greatest! :icon_pray I spent the whole evening to get the best solution with the ingame button programming cause i thought im lost without a sf key.

My mistake was to set the flaps (flaps0 flaps1 flaps_full) on the aux switcher :rolleyes: and the x45 sent always the order strg+f what i noticed earlier but didnt care about it lol.

now i know from the sst manual that the aux button need a non prorgammed position.

 

thx again for fast reply. cu u in the sky. =IA=redeagle :cool:

and for those that had same problem:

it is possible to use the "aux switcher" for flaps0 flaps1 and flaps2 ( but not the way i did :-)

 

do it that way:

right click mouse on the "aux0" and then "new extended order" and press ctrl+f

for aux1 press f

for aux2 press shift+f

 

that way the button get pushed only once :-) but u can read it in the sst manual if u r not as lazy as i am ;)
