Saitek X52 Pro configuration problems (SOLVED)

Post by Screet »

Hi,

it looks like I've been away from playing far too long. When I tried to setup my X52 Pro again, I encountered problems: The old profile has been lost and due to a new oolite installation all stick configuration there was lost, too.

I do remember that the POV1/POV2 were detected by Oolite as joystick buttons with extremely high number for each direction.

Now oolite does not register these controls anymore. It simply does not assign a button, but jumps back as if I did abort the action or as if the button has been registered, but it's not showing up, still empty.

Does anyone have a clue as to what I'm doing wrong? I've both tried "unassigned" in POV mode and "button" mode without assigning a key. Nothing of this did work.

I could imagine that setting all to button mode and assigning the keys manually might help as a workaround, but I'd prefer to setup as much as possible in Oolites normal joystick setup.

Turns out that my Oolite installation was somehow broken. It's working now, POV buttons properly being recognized.
