Saitek X-52 Profile
-
Edit:
forget my question, it was just me……
After comparing the keyfiles (no TrackIR with TrackIR Version) i understood how it works and find out that the function i was searching for was allready there… -
Hi there, I’ve just bought my X52 1 week ago (not pro) and when I select a profile from profiler it causes me BSOD AND BMS crashes.
Help me please I’m very tired of this! -
IIRC there used to be an issue with Button Names longer than 16 characters. It is supposed to have been fixed but I don’t take the chance just in case.
Edit:
_Note: I needed to add a USB 2.0 PCI card to my “Dell Vostro 430 i7” desktop because of strange MFD communication errors and poor joystick response (lost calibration, etc.) but I never had a BSOD due to the Saitek. I’d guess my issues were due to Dell’s chipset/USB 3.0 implementation (other USB devices seem ok).
I was ready to return the X52 Pro as broken but “luckily” found the intermittent faults disappeared once plugged into another PC._

I ve almost the same kind of problem, but that leads to ctd or bsod! I’ve the leds off, sometimes they bright up and If I’m manouvering while they do so it looses calibration and make the “0 point” the actual point where the cloche was, but it is impossible to trim as it does that quickly and **** up everything another time.
If I don’t use the SST all is going fine, the problem is that the SST is a must to use the radar cursor. (I don’t have command with more than 10 char in string)

It’s been a while since I have ran this sim but on your profile how do you designate a target on the MFD? I can move the cursor but cannot designate it.
Thanks! -

Thanks!The
) you would use TMS Up . -
I have the same problem with the pinkie button not shifting the other buttons properly.
Has anyone else solved this problem?
-
Awesome profile, thank you for making it and sharing with us:-)
-
I have a question, does anybody know how to reprogram the shifted mouse button 1 so it pauses TrackIR instead of reloads TrackIR? Thank you very much for you help

Hi,
Just getting started in BMS with my X52. I found this profile through a google search and tried to use it. However, after following the steps and placing the files in the appropriate folders, the buttons are not being bound. The only control that remains is the MFD cursor, which is configured in the Saitek Profiler. Anyone have any idea what this problem is? I’ve re-downloaded the files, rebooted my computer and reinstalled the saitek drivers, which just seemed to mess up the stick more… now the MFD on the throttle doesn’t display the full profile name or the mode, justMode [1] 2 3 Mo Falcon ```Not sure what I'm not doing (or doing) so that the buttons aren't bound properly or how to fix the MFD on the throttle. Please help? Thanks.

Having exactly the same problem as Squared above…
Anyone having any ideas? -

Anyone having any ideas?I assume you mean the ministick? Using the latest software from I couldn’t use the cursor using the ministick. It just wouldn’t work. You have to roll back to an older version. Look around for 4.0.100.1190 which is available from a Saitek FTP site. I can’t remember where I got that info. It was either on this forum, SimHQ or DCS/Eagle Dynamics. Get rid of the current version and re-install that older version. My head was wrecked trying to get it working in any sim.
Hope that helps.

same problem here.
it seems the profile is not loading.

@ unpilot, jasonbirder et al,
Do you guys have other USB devices plugged in such as the Thrustmaster MFDs? If so this can reset your device numbers to where the profile will not work correctly with you HOTAS.

Thanks!! That did it. I had a old “Virtual” joystick program running that must have gummed it up.
Once I uninstalled that I was good to go!Now I just need to find out why my data cartridge is not loading…i.e. Blank MFD’s

Hallo,
I am new to BMS and I like to use your x52 Profile.
I also use the Thrustmaster MFD - now there are conflicts, because the key mappings for the x52 are not set from 0-x (don´t know the exact number).
In your Initial post, you wrote that one has to check whether the x52 is wins preferred Joystick, so that it does work correctly with the MFDs (or any other third Input device).Where can I set this? I really Need help, I don´t know how to set.
Thanks very much in advance!

What keybinding is the default for the reset/reposition trackIR? I have OpenTrack installed for headtracking, but I can’t figure out the re-center key combination used by the commercial TrackIR software that the Throttle mouse click is mapped to.
-
This profile is great, thank you!
However, the “Precision Slide” is anything but! It’s kind of twitchy, actually… and I would like it to be smooth for FOV control.
Any known workarounds to this would be greatly appreciated
-
Using this one and loving it!
edit: @ChrisBV
I actually turn that off, I feel the FOV zoom takes away from the experience. It is supposed to be a sim after all.

The latest Saitek drivers from Mad Catz didn’t work for me, I had to downgrade. I also had MFD issues with my X-52 using the latest drivers. My MFD would only show half the profile name. I’m currently using the latest programming software but version 6.xxx something of the drivers, sorry I don’t remember which ones. The Saitek FTP has the older drivers. There are some youtube videos discussing the MFD issues and the older drivers.
After using the version 6 drivers, my MFD on my throttle body displays the words correctly, the profiler works. Hope this helps someone else.
