Solved How do you get the joystick and throttle recognized by BMS?

(i know this may sound basic, but don’t want to pooch these items).
I installed the throttle, then calibrated, saved the calibration, then saved the profile. I then loaded that profile and then disconnected the Throttle.
I then installed the joystick and calibrated, saved the calibration, then saved the profile. I then loaded that profile
I exited the software,
How do you get the joystick and throttle in the games…Do I
- Connect both items to my computer usb.
- Run the game
- Configure the buttons and sliders as to the games inputs.
(Do I need to load the profiles and have them running in the background (like some head tracking programs?), or just as long as they are connected to the computer,I should be good to go.

@jack72 - you need to tell BMS what your primary controllers are in BMS Setup. Have them all plugged in and make the choices for all of them at once.

Yeah, plug them in. Directly in the computer or in a powered USB hub is to prefer.
Before BMS, check that Windows can “see” them in the basic interface for game controllers: Choose Run, then type “joy.cpl” and OK
