This poor Saitek x52 of mine has been stowed for years, alas, because I thought I'd enjoy War Thunder. But their joystick code was...well...FUBAR. Plus I've not found an online flight based game I've enjoyed since Air Warrior invented the MMO back in 1986. Yes, Air Warrior, not Ultima Online, not World of Warcraft, not Meridian 59 or EverQuest, but Air Warrior was the first client/server massively multiplayer online game with full graphics in full 3D. But the world moved on to good versus evil, fantasy medieval grinding games that you could only play if you hated yourself on some level. Eve Online is brilliant in its own way. But some old Air Warriors pointed me toward this game: Elite Dangerous. And imagine my good fortune to THIS video first on my long neglected control system. Many thanks! Onto parts 2, 3 and the one covering the differences between the stock X52 I own versus the pro version.

They use voice recognition to issue game keystrokes based on what you say. For instance "Request docking" will initiate the sequence to open the left panel, then switch to contact, then select request docking, then switch the left panel off. However, you have changed the game binding and so now some of the sequences are not working. So I have what I think are a couple options - 1. roll back to the stock x52 config but now my muscle memory is set up for yours so that is a suck ass option, 2 - try to reprogram the voice attack profile of the hcs voice pack (I have no clue how hard this would be). I was hoping someone might read this that has figured out how to fix it as I like your profile. No flipping a butt load of buttons just to ask for docking permission is just one example and that in it self made it worth the $10 to me! There are many other commands of course and most just relieve a lot of the work load and distraction of flipping buttons. Saying - "max shields, max weapons, max engines" might seem like it is not a big deal until to try it and realize holy shit I cam fly 1000 times better because I am not constantly flipping pips and checking to make sure I have not fucked them up!

first of all, that video is great. but now, I have a question: I bought the x52 pro on amazon a couple of days ago and it arrived yesterday. I figured that you have to disable the functions of the x and y rotators and the clutch, but I am not able to use them in the game. additionally when I open the control panel, I dont see them moving. At first when I open it, there are red bars going halfway, but when I push a button they dissappear and I cannot get them to work. does this sound like a driver problem or a hardware problem?? (Win7 64)
@matthewwagner4042
7 жыл бұрын
I'm not sure I'm following on disabling the functions on the x and y "rotators". I don't do that. You do disable the clutch to allow that to have in-game functionality. Most games don't really require the use of the clutch in it's original intent. I've never had those two bars "disappear" unless you turn them all the way down, but if you have found a way to disable them... maybe you can reverse that and turn them back on and they won't disappear. I'm not sure if it is a hardware problem, but if you want me to remotely connect to your computer to troubleshoot the issue let me know.

Ron Kramer I probably would, but I have every command on my HOTAS... making all of those voice commands redundant and inefficient as I can press the buttons way faster than I can speak verbal commands. You cannot also give two verbal commands simultaneously, but you can press two buttons. The most intriguing part of them, to me, are the tours and such. If someone wants to get me a voice pack I'll program it. That would only be helpful if we can import/export voice attacks settings or copy the edited file(s) to another computer though. Also, there are so many different voice packs. If I edited one of them would it work for all of them?
@ronkramer3476

Yes - editing/programming on pack works with all voices. You load the voice you want to use. Programming is easy - like WHEN I SAY "landing gear" issue this command "L" on kb. and play sound... "landing gear deployed and locked". Or you can program it WHEN I SAY "landing gear" (joystick button press 5) or similar. The program then works with voice attack. The voice you use is not part of the program. You load the voice you want. Voice attack also works with any program or game. It's pretty cool to be in the SRV and while hands are busy driving - just say "place ship in orbit". And you get a response and the ship takes off... Request it come back when you want to be picked up and simply request it to "make it so" = ) you can import and export files created. And yes you can do two commands at once on a controller... and one voice command at a time, but you can do BOTH for 3 things at once ;-) I sold my trackIR when I got my vive VR headset, while flying into a base or station I can "say" request docking pad" and she will respond, 'requesting... docking and I'll get my response without ever looking to the left menu and clicking the location to request docking. I don't have to take my hands off the throttle or stick to call up either MAP using toggle 1/2 because I can simply say "system map'. And it appears while I'm still on the controls. Voice commands are not in place of hotas controls they are in addition to. I played with the new setup last night and over all I liked it. I did however wonder if we needed to turn the mode dial. That seemed cumbersome. Do I use landing or flight when docking, landing? did I loose something I needed by changing the mode. I think I'd like to see a program contained in one mode. Or at least flying - and driving. I believe voice attack was free to get started with. I did later purchase some stuff as well as another voice pack. It is SO cool. And well for VIVE people - we have a mic on the head set, so mumbling a question or command gets you computer assistance just like captain of the enterprise = )
@matthewwagner4042

When I come into a station, or right before, I put it in landing mode... that means I cannot accidentally boost into a wall because boost becomes extend / retract gear. Having no boost capability is a safety feature. It was actually my initial idea behind the landing mode. When I'm in a smaller ship I'll extend my gear outside which assists in slowing down my ship. If I'm in a large ship like the anaconda I extend my gear after going in the slot because fitting through with the gear out can be problematic in that case. Most everything functions in the same way in landing mode, but not 100% everything... like 95%. I think vertical motion on the galaxy map IS affected and I'll probably fix that in version 2.0. There is NO way you're going to get every command in one mode especially when you take driving mode into consideration.

Hi, I have a x52 nonpro since a few days, and trying to set it up for ED. I have watched your videos and downloaded your profiles for it for the nonpro version, but found that the ED-binds didn't work, probably because of the 2.2 update. Now I'm trying to bind the ED controls to the X52 profile, but I'm running into some problems, f.e.: - in de X52 profile (made a few changes), the upper hatswtich left/right is set to T and Shift-T. But when I go to ED and set this to Next/Previous Target, the game only registers Shift (???) when I use the joystick, so I cannot set these controls. When I open a textfile and play with the hatswitch it types: tTtTtTtT so it DOES send T and shift-T - some controls in the X52 profile are set to CTRL-numpadX, like next hostile, previous hostile. As an extra, I added "fighter commands" to numpadX in ED controls to command my fighter with the keyboard numpad. I have set CTRL-numpadX in ED-controls to the corresponding hatswitch, but when I use the hatswitch, it commands my fighter, so it seems like it doesn't send the CTRL (only the numpadX) - at this moment, I can select Next Target using hatswitch-right, but when I use hatswitch-left, it selects the previous target, but only as long as I keep the hatswitch pressed to the left. When I release the hatswitch, the focus jumps back to the target that was selected before I pressed hatswitch-left, so hatswitch-left seems to operate like "hold"-mode Any thoughts on this?

And an even stranger issue: I just redownloaded your ED.binds and X52 profile and reloaded both. Most things seem to work fine, but there was an issue with firing weapons, so I thought I'd go and reset the ED-control to the proper joystickbutton. I go to ED controls, find the primary/secondary firebuttons, both already set to RIGHTCTRL-F and LEFTALT-F, as in your X52 profile. When I try to reset the ED control to RIGHTCTRL-F it only registers RIGHTCTRL, not the F, not even when I use the keyboard.... What drivers for X52 do you use?

Just an initial thought... You're using the file download from the 2C video correct? The 2B video download only works with the X52Pro and not the X52. Part 2C deals with all of the downloads for the standard X52... that's also the best place to bring up standard X52 issues. If that's not the issue another thing that comes to mind is that there are two CTRLs keys... make sure you're linking to the correct one as either Lctrl and Rctrl. If this is a 2.2 issue and not a wrong file issues I'm going to have to try and get ahold of the guy that makes the X52 file versions. I don't own a standard X52 so I can't directly re-do the keybinds download for it. Let me know if you're using the correct file for the standard X52.

Hi, tnx for replying, but I have solved my problem (basically I have recreated my own profile since I had some problems with yours, but the problem was persistent). My problem was: when binding a joystick button to combined keys in the profiler, f.e. Shift-N to Pinky-A on X52, and setting Shift-N to Prev. Firegroup in ED, ED would stay on the same firegroup, after blinking the next firegroup but immediatly going back to the current firegroup. In case of firing: I had F set to Prim.Fire in ED/Trigger on X52 and Shift-F set to Sec.Fire/C on the X52, but noticed that when I fired the second firegroup, the first firegroup was also triggered on RELEASE of the C-button! This would explain why I could not select Previous Firegroup: after Shift-N sending another N would have ED stay on the same firegroup. My solution is to not set Shift-F directly to the button in the profile, but use an Advanced Command, in which I split pressing Shift-F to Press, and releasing Shift-F to Release (with 0,01 sec difference between the buttons). This solved my other problems with combinations with Shift (supercruise was set to Shift-J, hyperjump was set to J, SC was giving the same problem: shutdown after releasing the corresponding button, HJ worked fine). It now works fine! I think it goes the same for all combo-keys (CTRL, etc) but I have only tried 4 shift-combo's which now all work without problems. Also think that I could use your profile now, but would have to reset combo-buttons to an advanced command to get it to work properly. Might have initially dld the wrong profile.
