X4 Foundations Not Recongnizing All Controllers Easy Fix (For me)

Post by mesae » Sun, 28. Apr 24, 11:59

On beta 7: I fired up X4 for the first time in 4-ish years, after upgrading my sim pit to all Virpil with three control panels, throttle, stick and rudder pedals. The game only saw three of those. After reading in a previous locked thread about the same issue some speculation about the game not recognizing controllers without X and Y axes, I checked in VPC Configuration software and sure enough, the controllers that did not have both a X and Y axis were the ones not recognized. So I changed axis names so all controllers had x and y axes, and the problem was fixed. All six of my controller are now recognized in X4. One of my panels does not have any hardware axes, so I had to add two virtual axes naming them x and y and X4 was happy with that. I hope this helps anyone else with this issue, and maybe it will provide a data point for Egosoft to fix the issue as well.
