Hey guys, it’s been a while since I played BMS. I’ve been on DCS a lot lately, and I just don’t get to drive the viper over there. So here I am. Now, it would be nice to get a little help getting back into the swing of things for BMS.
First off: I have most of my axis set up in their basic forms. I have pedals, breaks, throttle, stick and TIR.
The thing I’d like a little guidance with is setting up my stick buttons and keyboard to get the most of the sim.
I’ve mentioned before that I use the X-52 (non-pro) HOTAS, and early on when trying to get that all set up I was a bit daunted by setting that and the keyboard up. I know there were two keyboard set ups (keymap and bms). Keymap seemed was mostly familiar and something I’d gotten used to with FreeFalcon. I then found out that BMS had a lot of HOTAS functions that Keymap didn’t have, but BMS seemed was very different and didn’t seem to ‘flow,’ at least after being used to other things.
So that’s one thing.
The other thing is, I’m wondering if I can use a button on my stick (pinky button/button 6) on my stick as a modifier in BMS like I can in DCS or will I have to use the SST profiler for that?
Any other guidance you all can provide will be much appreciated.
