Saitek X-52 Profile
-
Can someone give me a link to a good profile for the bms 4.32 that uses the track ir.
Total newbie here.
I have 4.32 but I do not have 4.33 yet. I just recently bought a track ir and I have the X52 non pro. I just tried the game last night with a profile I found online, I think it was Ironman or something, but the thrust did not work, and after switching views the track ir stopped working.
I can’t wait to learn how to fly this thing, I have had the game for years, and with a broken ankle and time on my hands, I figure that this time I will do all those training missions and fly this baby.
The OP post and download is for 4.32 with trackir. Just follow KesMonkeys instructions and use all of his files.

Thanks for the help. Maybe its just because Ive been grading papers for 9 hours, but I think I’m missing something here. Where do I download those files? They are not available to download on that first page. Or is the download link taken down because of the negotiations going on? Or am I just missing something obvious because its too late and I’m too tired?
Edit,
The answer was that I was too tired. I found it, lol. Thanks!

Ok Im running into a few problems problems.
First the throttle doesn’t work for airspeed, instead the precision slider controls air speed.
Second, I have windows 8.1 and I could not find the x52 properties menu to make the changes needed to enable mapping of the clutch button.
Third I could not find the line set g_bPilotEntertainment 0 so I could change it to 1 to enable winamp controls (which I have no idea what that means yet.) I did use word pad and I did look through falcon bms.cfg files.
Thanks for having patience with someone not familiar with all of this stuff.

Assign your axes in the SETUP –> ADVANCED screens:
After you plug in your X52, right click on the system tray Saitek Icon to open the Saitek Control Panel, like so:

Got it! Thank you.
Now after two days of trying to get everything working I can start to get my self killed in the training missions:p

Will the profile on the first page work with 4.33.1? If not, are there any profiles for 4.33 with track ir?
I’m just getting ready for 4.33.1. Great thing to look forward to as I learn how to fly with 4.32 for now.

It may work but it is not recommended. Use the 4.33 files I posted and let me know if you have problems. You shouldn’t. I copied and pasted the callbacks into the 4.33.1 key file just to be sure but I saw no changes that would cause problems. You should not have to do that. If you have problems let me know and I will upload an updated file.

Hello.
I just started with Falcon BMS, and of course I need help already.
I did everything to setup this profile as it should, but in the Profile Editor there is no sign and reactions of the buttons.
Any help is appreciated! -

Any help is appreciated!A lot of callbacks and keys have changed since 4.32. This profile, most likely, won’t work anymore, and needs an update.
I made one for the Saitek X-52. It may suite you.

This post is incorrect and misleading. This profile was updated to 4.33.1.

Any help is appreciated!The profile is almost entirely DX so it will not show in the profile editor. It will show in BMS. Use the files in posts 321 and 340. Start with Keysmonkey’s files from the first post then replace the duplicate files with the ones in post 321. Depending on what you like more you can use the keyfile from post 321 or post 340.

Sorry guys, THIS is my problem too. Shifted keys are not working. Thanks Viking for the answer. I got it now with the profile editor.

The problem POMBO was having was that his kefile was corrupt. You either have a corrupted keyfile or are trying to use the one from 4.32 in the original post. For all the newcomers out there, you need to match your files to the version of BMS you have. If you see a post from 2011 that has not been updated, it is not made for your BMS version. If the file is from a post in 2015 then make sure it says it is for 4.33.1 or at least 4.33.
Mike, follow the directions in post 321. If you like the new keyfile in post 340 then use that one.

I’m using keyfile from post 340. I have a fresh install of BMS 4.33 U1. I’m sorry I just can’t figure out how to make working that pinky… Where should I exactly put these lines: set g_nHotasPinkyShiftMagnitude 256; set g_nHotasShiftQuickPressTimeLimit 500
within the falcon bms.cfg?
I’ve put them right under the Config.exe Settings.
And I always load Saitek profile before running BMS. -
Did you do this?
•To enable the mapping of the clutch button to “HOTAS Cursor Enable”, disable clutch mode in your X-52 properties (see third pic).

I don’t see the misleading….nor the update or the 4.33 version mentioned on the first post.

That is because you didn’t read the thread. I am not Keysmonkey so I cannot update his post. You really should read a thread before you butt in and make incorrect misleading posts.

Or you should just have answerd that his post is not updated, and you made a new keyfile. Or better yet, make a new post with the updated keyfiles, so that people, and moreover newbies, don’t have to read 35 pages.
