Thrustmaster X Hotas bind shift buton to recenter view
-
I have recently upgraded to the Thrustmaster T flight X Hotas and installed Blue Raven’s key stroke file. I use FacetrackNoIR and would like to the Shift 5 or 6 key a recenter key and a on/off key. Any help on how to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance

Sorry but I didn’t get what you want to do exactly… do you want to bind HOTAS buttons to recenter/switch your FTNoIR on/off or do you want to bind keyboard combos?

First, thanks for the file and answering my post! I would like to bind on the HOTAS throttle, the Shift 5 button (button 9 and 5 together) to recenter the view and the Shift 6 button (button 9 and 6 together) to turn it on/off. I believe you have these as radio buttons in your file.
Thanks!

Yes, these are the COMMS switch buttons in my setup.
But there’s no way to recenter/switch the head tracking on/off via a BMS callback in the keyfile (the references you might have seen are just placeholders to “reserve” some keys), you have to do it inside FTNoIR: just remove/comment out the relevant lines in my keyfile and search the options for the binding shortcuts.
Just click on the “Bind” button for the function you want (center, zero, etc.) and press the desired HOTAS buttons combo.
I don’t remember exactly if FTNoIR allows you to bind joystick buttons, in case consider switching to OpenTrack that has support for it (even if I won’t swear on being able to map a combo composed by more than one button…).
Let me know should you need further help.
