Winwing 4x32 mode

[Wooky63]

So, I got my new Winwing Orion 2 system which I love, but on some sims like X4, not all of the buttons are recognized by the sim. So Winwing has this 4x32 button mode which virtually splits the throttle and joystick into several separate controllers so the game can see and use all the buttons available on this system. This seems to work somewhat in another space sim, but it doesn't work at all in X4. I still only see on stick and one throttle base and one set of pedals. Is there a limit on how many controllers X4 can see? Is there something I need to do to get another one to show up in the sim? Why isn't this working?

Try using vJoy to split it and 'check' X axis for each virtual device. X4 should see them as separate devices then.

this will be a rant on Windows and/or Steam. Move on.
I hate how joysticks need to be "supported". How the heck difficult is it for Microsoft or Linux to just say "Hello there gaming controller! Yes you are a joystick, yes you look like you were made for a fighter jet cockpit, but guess what, you are here to help control games, so you are a game controller now sh*t the f*ck up! You will present to me like a game controller, you will have all your buttons addressable in the OS as GXY and all yoru axis as AXY. Then I can tell any game that they can assign G69 to the game to shoot a missile up the enemy's b**t and we can all be happy. We can all shy in relief that all joysticks will play well together an no developer even needs to code specifically for your idi***c new type of controller that you coded badly and gave a needless driver and a software to do sh*t with! Your just is to be a game controller, be that or go home!"
... ok... thanks and sorry...
