Saitek X-52PRO Profile UPDATED 3-30-12
-
Ah, now I get it. The Range is not for FCR, but for targeting pod. I need to do more reading. I’ve only been using the FCR and dogfight override. So much to learn!! Sorry for being so ignorant, but the only other flight game/sim (more game) I’ve spent any time in is Total air war by DID, and EF2000 before that. That was really simple compared to Falcon.
-
No worries.

My turn with some problems. I’ve set the Rotateries etc. in accordance with HD’s screen shots. Several buttons on my X-52 Pro work satisfactorily but the following are not doing so. There are quiet a few.
1. Throttle Hat - no pinkie reactions at all.
2. Fire E - Not ‘Uncage’ but HOTAS Range Knob Up
and no Radar Standby at all.
3. Mouse Fire button - no ‘Cursor Zero’ but ‘LMFD OSB-9’
4.Mouse Wheel - no Pinkie reactions at all.
5. POV 2 - All OK but instead of ‘Azimuth’ I get ‘LMFD OSB18’
6. Fire A - not ‘View Centre/Aligh Track IR’ but 'View - Toggle SA bar
7. Launch - no ‘Pickle Weapon’ but ‘Eject’ in plain Mode 1
8. POV 2 - No ‘DMS’ as shown but all ‘TMS’
9. Trigger - Nothing showing on 2nd Detend at all. No ‘Guns’
10. Toggles - 5 & 6 are stopped about each performing the others job.
3 & 4 with Pinkie not ‘HUD Dimmer’ but ‘Sim brightness’
Otherwise all is well!I’d appreciate some help here as well, if you would.
Thank you. -
with update 5 and a fresh install of the drivers/software/this profile, when i press fire a in mode one to center track ir, the SA bar(i think that is what its called) appears in the bottom left of the screen.
Reading the above post more clearly it appears i may have more of the same issues, perhaps it is due to new software?
I am on 7.0.27.13 for software and driver.

It appears with the newest updates all around that this profile is broken

Maybe someone had the issue I have but when I use Pinky+Launch Button, my bombs+tanks are jettisoned but the right mfd stay on the emergency jettison screen. I have to push manually the jettison button (with the mouse) and release it in order to make the right mfd back to normal. Any solution for this ?

Sure seems that way….:-(
I am working toward a solution.
If I cannot find one, I will provide a download link and instructions to install older drivers that will work with this profile.
Please accept my apologies for not giving this issue my full attention much earlier.

This profile is…rather incredible. The simple mechanics (things needed for basic takeoff/flight maneuvers/landing) feel much much more conveniently and intuitively bound than the default BMS profile/keybindings. I can actually deactivate the parking brakes now, something that, as you could imagine, helps tremendously for takeoff. I haven’t fiddled around with the more advanced functions (still trying to re-indoctrinate myself to the game; haven’t played Falcon 4.0 since I was a kid), but it seems like all the important stuff is where I don’t have to trawl through densely-packed, multi-colored text to find it on the keyboard chart.
One thing I did notice, though, is that the control for the throttle defaulted to the slider as opposed to the Z axis (the actual throttle lever). While easy to fix, it did leave the slider unbound, and I’ve yet to find a way to re-associate it with the airbrakes. Not that it’s a huge deal, since the airbrakes are bound to B and V without any modifier keys and therefore quick to access. Still, I’d like to know if there’s a way I can get the slider re-bound for the sake of convenience.
Cheers, mate, and keep up the excellent work.
Addendum: What is the push-to-talk button for IVC? I’ve scoured both the keyboard chart and the in-game keybinding menu, but can’t find it. Is it the clutch button? Because when I push it, the throttle’s MFD reads “PTT Teamspeak”.

Hi, thanks for your profile but right now I think there’s a problem with it. If I look in the profiler all the Primary mode is blank like no key have been set up. Emergency had some sets and Primary + pinky too.
Hope you can help me !
thanks

ok i just figured out The problem is my joystik not on ID 0 because of my ch pedals. The problem right now is even with the joystick ID# swapper I can’t set to id 0 only on id 1
-
heh, I have exact same problem as nic?!

Any chance of an update for the new Saitek Drivers? Best X52 profile thanks Hard Deck

Hey i’m trying to help a buddy of mine half way around the world. We are having a problem with your latest update. 3-22-12. We can’t get the mouse stick to work correctly when pressing left. We have followed all instructions and everything else works however just the mouse cursor left. When we use the testing software it will not produce f10 when going left however we go to the saitek control panel and move the mouse stick left it moves left. When we go into BMS and try and assign cursor left in the setup screen of bms it will work but it then un assigns cursor right , so something is haywire between the left and right. When inside the SST software we’ve tried re-assigning f10 in there and it does assign it f10 but it will not produce f10.
Any ideas

Need help please. What am I doing wrong?
Just purchased a X52 Pro, downloaded/installed drivers from MadKatz site. Downloaded HD’s profile. Replaced the BMS Key file with the one in HD’s install. Did notice it;s size is smaller… Fired everything up and about half the X52 functions. No curser function/radar range/etc.
Is that because: 1) I did something wrong? 2) HD’s Key file is out of date with current BMS rev? If so, is there another up-to-date key file? 3) something else I completely missed … did follow HD’s instructions covering the controls setup within BMS setup page.
Thanks in advance.

here are the drivers and profilers for win7/vista 64 bit, they should work with this profile (i downloaded these in august 2012) i too ran into this profile being FUBAR in the pit and after searching on the internet for a while i remembered that i still had these on my pc somewhere, so here you go
edit: this link will remain live for as long as needed, i rarely check these forums but if i see that hard deck has updated his profile to work with the latest driver and profiler i will take it down (might be a year from now)

I am having no issues with driver/software version 7.0.27.13 (Win7 64-bit)
Going in for another surgery Monday. If all goes well, I intend to do an update over the next few weeks.
Having used this profile for a few years now, I have some ideas about what needs to be eliminated,
(eject,jettison…etc.) and what needs improvement.No promises, but if anyone has suggestions for minor modifications, feel free to post your suggestions here.
Take care y’all.
