-
we have an additional key in front of the American Z key
Own local still Yellowand import not working
-
Try to make new locale Azerty BE NL
No joy cause we dont have 0X2B and i need to fill in that cellManta, you can fix that problem with autohotkeys, same way I did with the budget ICP project.
Edit…good find! nevermind my post
-
i think its something in the excelsheet ?even if i copy the french part to own locale import dont work–>all keys “none”
-
Hoover,
or just do the math in case your devices are not sorted the way it is assumed in the key files. -> change button numbers
Feel also free to use the tool AND have a look at the manuals.Thanks guys (also Darkman and Polaris), after another hacking session yesterday evening I’m nearly set it seems.
dunc_dx works great, so do the mfds, now it’s just the g25 shifter left to integrate and filling in the blanks in the keyfile w/r to the android mfd / icp software.
Am I right in assuming that the POV hat is mapped to trim now instead of rotating the views? Somehow the coolie hat worked for trimming out of the box which was a nice surprise.
Cheers, Uwe

Hi Manta,
I’m a bit confused.
We had a chat via pm about this issue and you got the answer how to fix that.
I also posted it here with a reference to post #1. -
Yes i got the answer how to select the own locale.
That’s workingBut importing the BMS keyfile is not giving me what i expect
i dont see any key… every key says none. Sended a PM with link to dropboxIf i choose German Us or french it shows me this
-
Now I got you.
Yes, simple formula mistake.
Will be fixed in U1.Edit: Thanks for reporting of course

Added X-55 Rhino profile to the Key File Editor Excel file.
It is created in the Own Primary tab.I started working on it with a template of only one device so whoever wants to edit for 2 devices is welcome to do so (please share :))

@xcom - I got a “Security Alert - Office File Validation”. Any one else getting this alert. Thanks
-
Not completely sure why.
This MS article (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2501584) explains about Office File Validation, I think it is more or less a kind of hashing or CRC validation that they introduced.It might be occurring because I used Office 2016, seems that in the readme Kolbe did, he supports up to 2010, still works though.

Fixed an issue with a few wrong DX numbers, and also moved it to tab - OWN #1 instead of PRIMARY OWN.
For some reason on PRIMARY OWN it did not export the DX configs only after I copied it into OWN #1. -
Kolbe hi,
Did some checking with the new dx generator and I have found that there is a problem with the keyboard assignments.
The file has no keyboard assignments and a new one has to be imported.
When the BMS-Full.key is imported the option “Keep default 3rd party Software assignments” results in either:
Yes - third party conflicts with F9 and F12.
No - Absence of all third party assignments as well as controller’s assignments within the output tab.
In addition, there are discrepancies with some of the radio menu callbacks between the imported and actual BMS-Full.key (lines 955-979 in the Notepad editor for the.key files).Either way, both options (the no is more obvious) don’t send the correct callbacks to the controllers and are unusable.
The way I solved it is by copying only the controller’s callbacks, when the “yes” option is chosen, from the output tab, and paste it in the BMS-Full.key file after the “FlightDiamond -1 0 0XFFFFFFFF 0 0 0 1 “FLIGHT: Go Diamond”” line (instead of all the rest within that file).Attached are excel key file generators and key files for each of the options:
“No” for Keep default 3rd party Software assignments: Test
“Yes” for Keep default 3rd party Software assignments: Test2
“Yes” for Keep default 3rd party Software assignments & use the BMS-Full.key keyboard callbacks (working .key file): Polaris01.https://www.dropbox.com/s/imbq8huh5mrmjyd/BMS%20Key%20Files.rar?dl=0

Hi manta, xcom & Polaris,
thanks for all the replies / hints.
I have just returned from a lan meeting an will come back on this tomorrow.
Maybe.
In fact, I need a break…:D -
Hope you enjoyed the lan.
I was on the flightsimweekend in Lelystad.
And talked about it with some friends .
Btw did import old 4.32 keyfile changed some things and exported again.
New soundcodes are in my keyfile now and everything seems ok. -
Thanks for this great Keyfile generation “tool”.
I’m using the Version which was shipped with BMS 4.33
Now I’m trying to get the Idle-Detent on my Hotas Warthog working. Has anyone managed to get this running without using the TARGET-Software ?
Since this template in the xls is for the uncombined Warthog Controller I’d like to use this.
-
I think you should take a look at Morphine’s Profile.
If I’m not mistaken he has solved the Idle Detent function via TARGET.
Not sure, but I would recommend taking a look at it or ask him for hints & clues. -
I own a Warthog myself and I admit I dont see how to make the idle detent work without a TARGET script. Morphine’s solution is in a script indeed and works like a charm, very elegant solution.
-
Kolbe,
Why is the idle detent switch different from other switches?
You managed to program other switches to act when moving On to Off, in addition to their Off to On action.
In DCS it works easily without Target with just a simple lua added command for the On to Off action. -
Well, directx buttons can be programmed to have a callback on key release. I use that for all my three way switches.
