Installing the software changes the options in the Windows 10 Settings panel for Game Controllers.If you hit "Show all downloads" then they aren't in order so finding the latest version and the 64 bit version of that is a pain in the tookus. They show one installer (they "autodetect the OS") but it's for x86. Minor gripe here - Logitech's site is atrocious. Go to Logitech's site (because they apparently bought Saitek at some point) and download and install the latest software (this appears to be 8.0.213.0 as of 14Feb2021 although that version is from 24Sep2018).What are the steps to get a functional HOTAS in ED that I can then go in and modify the buttons after getting at least something basic and functional? New computer (new for what we're doing, not brand new), HOTAS never before plugged into it, and a fresh install of ED. Is there not a post somewhere that describes how to configure the X52 for ED? Imagine a blank slate. The overall game state also determines how each state is mapped to a colour, meaning different colours are used when hardpoints are deployed as to normal.I just spent 2 hours digging through the forums here and elsewhere and trying to get my old Saitek X52 Pro to behave properly in Elite Dangerous and I can't figure out the right combination to get it to work right. Examples of alert states include heat sinks when overheating and undeployed landing gear after docking permission has been granted.
