Mapping f9 and f12 to HOTAS
Posted: Sun Feb 04, 2024 12:57 pm
Hello
I have just changed my HOTAS joystick. I am running FSX in windows XP and I am able to map the buttons to my X45 HOTAS. Except.. the buttons F9 and F12, when mapped to toggle view and centre, do not work.
I am using the windows drivers for the HOTAS, NOT the Saitek drivers for the X45. ( not available)
The profile uses those hotkeys but the HOTAS buttons when mapped do not get Trackir to react.
I changed the hotkeys and mapped those but it made no difference.
I had the same issue many years ago with my Cougar HOTAS but managed to get it to work, but I’ve forgotten how.!,
Any button in FSX can be mapped to the HOTAS and work. - except whatever Hotkeys of Trackir that I use.
Can anyone assist please?
Thank you
