@Jack-Daniels @Jambo tell me more about these G: and Z: drives
are they network drives? subst-aliases? or actual physical drives… NTFS?
can you show me the permissions – run this from the cmd prompt
>icacls "X:\Falcon BMS 4.37"
output should look like this
X:\Falcon BMS 4.37 BUILTIN\Administrators:(I)(OI)(CI)(F) NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(I)(OI)(CI)(F) BUILTIN\Users:(I)(OI)(CI)(RX) NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:(I)(M) NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:(I)(OI)(CI)(IO)(M)

@airtex2019 z: drive is a actual physical SSD Drive, with no other partitions

Oh dang, I think I realize what’s happening… new theory…
There is a “Stock” subfolder of default XML templates, for popular hotas devices. It appears many of those templates were never updated for the DX32->DX128 transition.
That’s where the 32-slot XML files are coming from. Those templates are loaded at first-time startup, if you haven’t already saved any mappings for that particular device.
(Older versions of AL must either have failed silently, or crashed later, when attempting to bind a button number >=32 … new version of AL is failing sooner)
If anyone is game to do a quick validation:
-
rename your
"...\Falcon BMS 4.37\Launcher\Stock"
folder … toStock_backup
or something -
delete (or better, move to a backup folder) any
"Setup\*.xml"
files in your...\Falcon BMS 4.37\user\Config
folder
Let me know if that helps.

@airtex2019 Thats it!!! Problem solved. Also closing after editing and restart works. Thank you so much.

-
Worked for me as well. thanks
-
@airtex2019 yes, your suggestion worked for me. Thanks a lot
-
Whew…! thanks. I’ll update those templates, and also harden the AL code better (for folks actually upgrading from old DX32 era).
This is what a former coworker of mine used to refer to as “psychic debugging”. Not an easy part of this job…

-
@airtex2019 Just wanted to give you a big thank you for your efforts in getting this figured out for us. THANK YOU!!!
-
@Jambo I accept the thanks, but … this one is also directly my fault, so…
I’m just trying to make omelets without breaking too many eggs… as the saying goes.
-
@airtex2019 For me WAS NOT a fresh install but an update via the launcher! Yeah, probably i’m dumb. I will do a clean new install, but i see that in any case you guys found a way to solve the problem. Good work, thank you a lot.
Edit: WORKED! You fellas are the best. Thank you.
-
Worked for me aswell! Thanks for your effort!
-
Thank you it worked…
Glad you could find the culprit.

Thanks for finding a solution so quickly
