I read that about not messing with modifiers like "shift" keys somewhere in the docs I think. Makes sense! Thanks for the help offer...I think I am making progress with learning how to read/edit key files and also using the Excel Key file editor so wish me more luck

SemlerPDX, why did you re-map the arrow keys from the default usage of ICP dobber to use them for the radar cursor when the default radar cursor controls were just shft-arrow? Couldn't you have just left them as in the bms-full.key?

Sorry to hear that and I am well acquainted with things flying out of my brain too. Thanks for all the help and tips though...greatly appreciated.

Hi SemmlerPDX. Got everything installed and working per your instructions. Things are looking up! Even got my Head Tracker working on a useful level. Been flying around, crashing, and generally just trying to get used to things before I start my crash course on Ramp Starts. One question regarding View 2 - 3D Pan Cockpit. Are you using a headtracker? I'm thinking I need to play around with my opentrack settings to see if I can get those inside cockpit views covered because I can't see everything just yet unless I go to the snap views and keyboard. Which isn't the worst thing for the ramp start but I'm about as close as I'm going to get to being full HOTAS now, with two touch screens wired in front of me which are working as ICP and MFD displays thanks to the fabulous work done here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ch.mollusca.falconbmscontrol&hl=en_US. I used to carry my computer to a friend's basement back in the early 90's to play Falcon 3.0 and now it has come to this! Wow.

I think I'd probably best be served avoiding Alternative Launcher given your stated incompatibility. I've got enough trouble trying to get the stuff that works...working. Now with regards to other controllers...I do have the CH Pedals lying around. But is there any need to add them to the mix given the handle twist, and that you've got brakes mapped to the mousewheel? Also, there is one slight variation from your keyfile and the BMS-Full.key. Probably doesn't affect anyone but your file doesn't have these two lines starting at line 971: SimDoNothing -1 0 0x1C 4 0 0 -0 "SIM: Toggle FullScreen" SimDoNothing -1 0 0x1C 2 0 0 -0 "SIM: Toggle Borderless" Last question for now...has anyone done anything in BMS with regard to using the X-52 LEDs for anything? I started messing around with FlywithLua and LuaOut in X-Plane 11. Really fantastic stuff.

SemlerPDX, do you use the Alternative Launcher? I'm slowly working my way through things and wondering if I can simply replace BMS-Full with your key file...or will that break something (which is what I'm really good at ).

The key statement, above Thanks for the clarification.

Hi Falconeer. Thanks for all this hard work you put in! Newbie here. I'm just trying to load the profile into the Logitech programming interface to test things out. Problem is the only things that show up as mapped are the mouse and sliders. The button labels are there but no keys are mapped. I know I'm probably missing something...but not sure what. I switched overfrom a CH Fighterstick/Pro Throttle/Rudder to the Logitech X52 Pro because of my issues with the CH Software, but it looks like things are no better with the X52 Pro . And I can't even find a Logitech manual for the software. I found a Saitek version and it's basically the same but...ugh.
