Thrustmaster T.16000m FCS Controller not working

[ZoneKiller]

Ever since the 1.08 update I can not set the controls for my Joystick.
I use the T.16000m joystick and a TWCS Throttle (Thrustmaster)

Before the update everything worked well.
In the reset when trying to configure controls I have an option of T.16000m + T.16000m
And when I move the joystick the bindings goto KEY UNSET in a bigger font and will not assign any keys and reverts back to what it was as soon as I move the mouse or touch the keyboard.

Now if I uninstall the joysticks from windows 10 and install the TWCS Throttle first and then the T.16000m

Battlezone reset shows TWCS Throttle + TWCS Throttle
and I can assign keys to the TWCS Throttle but not the T.16000m Joystick

Whichever Joystick is installed first into windows only shows up in the reset section but as Joystick + same Joystick

Ive uninstalled the game 3 times made sure I have all the updated drivers but no luck.
Ive looked for the file/registry that holds the Assigned Key information incase it is corrupt. But have had no luck.

Anyone have any Ideas ?

Hi ZoneKiller, thanks for letting us know. We're aware of some problems with HOTAS and other direct input-based controllers that have been introduced in the 1.08 patch and are working on a hotfix as I write this.

[ZoneKiller]

Awesome, Thank you. I will look forward to the hot fix

[ZoneKiller]

So Guys how is this hot fix going ?

[[Reb] Shyrka]

Hey ZoneKiller. We're working through a couple of extra input-related quality-of-life things we're trying to get in for this patch. Again, apologies for the inconvenience - it shouldn't be too much longer.

[ZoneKiller]

Thanks for the reply, I hope to see the fix soon :)

[ZoneKiller]

So Guys how is this hot fix going ? Kinda still waiting.
I would like to enjoy the game with my controllers again. It used to work. :(

[[Reb] Shyrka]

Very soon, we hope. Thank you for your patience!

[[Reb] Shyrka]

And, as if by magic, the patch is now live. Hopefully this will fix your issues!

[ZoneKiller]

Still Not Working. (I had no issues before the update everything worked great)

Well there is a change I get

magic keyboard emulator + TWCS Throttle
or
magic keyboard emulator + T.16000m

so now I cant use both Joystick and Throttle even if I could BIND anything

But even as you see the Y+ in the move right as the selected button when you select it the keybindings it just reverts back to mouse as soon as you hit enter or LMB

[[Reb] Shyrka]

Damn. It must be the mouse & keyboard support that was added in gold edition for non-vr users that's causing the issue. The recent hotfix contained a fix to get the controller names correctly which explains the change you're seeing. Is "magic keyboard emulator" something you have installed? My guess is that it's confusing the game into thinking you're using the keyboard when you're not.

[ZoneKiller]

I didnt install it , but it does seem to be in a few games as a controller -- im using win 10 pro 64 and steam VR beta

[[Reb] Shyrka]

Curious. I couldn't even find anything about a "magic keyboard emulator" online. Does it appear in Windows' "Setup USB Game Controllers" configuration tool?

[ZoneKiller]

I removed all my usb devices and reinstalled them and even tho the "magic keyboard emulator" shows in other games as a controller it no longer shows up in Battlezone, Its back to
T.16000m + TWCS Throttle but i still have the issue that when I select a axis or button for an action it does show up but as soon as I click on the LMB or the enter key or even move the mouse the action reverts back to what is was (Mouse & Keyboard settings).

Could the file that holds the information about keybindings be corrupt or read only on my PC?

If it is possible could you point me to that file (I have looked) so i can delete it or configure it and start again. I have uninstalled and reinstalled BZ several times.

"magic keyboard emulator" never shows in the "Setup USB Game Controllers" but does in DCS and ARMA 3 ,Also I am using all Microsoft drivers for my input devices. I have no Issues with any other game. As I said it did work perfectly before the update

[[Reb] Shyrka]

Before the 1.08 update we didn't support keyboard for in-game controls at all but that was added to support desktop mode. I suspect whatever the magic keyboard emulator is, it's now being picked up as a keyboard and confusing the game where it wouldn't have been before. Right now, I'm not sure what else to suggest, unfortunately. I don't have access to that controller here at the moment so we can't even test it in-house. I'll see if we can get ahold of one.
