Solved Saving joystick and keyfile settings?
-
Should the BMS setup be saving things like my selected joystick and bms key file selection? Every time I go back into the Setup/Controllers screen after exiting BMS, I have to re-select controller and keyfile. I’m using the alternative launcher if that matters…as I once again try and learn how to fly this sim.

@bdlmi2018 Alternative Launcher should be used by itself. No need to go into the BMS controller setup
-
@bdlmi2018 On the Alternative Launcher page, make sure the “launch without any setup override” box is NOT checked.
-
@mj3437 All good on that option. It wasn’t checked. Thanks.

@quasi_stellar Thanks. That might be the problem. I have never set up my sticks in alternative Launcher before. I was going to use SemlerPDX’s X-52 Pro Keyfile, which might to be a problem as far as Alternative Launcher is concerned since it wants to use BMS-Full.

I think it’s best to either use AL or a premade profile & instructions to use it such as my X52 Falconeer set. I’m not at all sure if my modified BMS_Full.key in my profile would be a suitable replacement as far as AL is concerned, though if you back up files before trying, if it doesn’t work, you can just put those file copies back as it was before you started testing.
It was pointed out that my keyfiles do not have the (afaik) new callbacks for screen size (fullscreen toggles, etc.) since this was created some time ago, and those could be added easily enough.
If you get a user made profile such as mine to work through AL, it might be helpful to post up what you did and any issues that may have happened or been overcome. Cheers!
