Reassign Joystick Numbers T16000m HOTAS and Win10 ID's

[iNgeon]

In the past use to have constant issues with joystick assignments based on when or where i use to connect joysticks.
As example have a T16000m and a TWCS throttle. To get Star Citizen or SCJmapper in this case to swap i could manipulate which one i connected when. This is no longer the case, it seems Microsoft has potentially fixed this.
So with Star Citizen 3.14 ptu they have changed a vast amount of bindings and they have added a config file for t16000m in game. In the below keep your eyes on Flight - Movement Pitch, Yaw, Roll

• Load a fresh SCJmapper
• Reset, Reset Defaults !
• Load, Defaults, Load and Grab the t16000m
• My Joystick 1 is TWCS Throttle. and Joystick 2 is T.16000m Joystick. The base loadout is swapped as in everything that is mapped to js1 and js2 must be swapped
• As example all main flight controls are mapped to the js1 the TWCS throttle instead of the T.16000m joystick js2
• So I open Reassign Joystick Numbers and i swap js1 and js2
• It changes the js1 and js2 but nothing on the bindings swap around. All main flight controls remain mapped to the TWCS throttle which is now js2. It basically only switches everything around without swapping the stick bindings around

Basically it would be nice if one could Reassign the joystick ID/jSN - Assignment then hit Reset to defaults but having the reset to defaults not also resetting the new Reassigned joystick numbers also

The Reassign works only with a once valid configuration where things changed - i.e. the Header would need to have some devices added.

Now if you want to - this works here...

Get an old profile where the devices are listed i.e.

<ActionMaps version="1" optionsVersion="2" rebindVersion="2" profileName="my_x55_65t-js5_js6"
js5="Saitek Pro Flight X-55 Rhino Stick" js5G="6f187bc0-5d28-11e7-8006-444553540000"
js6="X65F Flight Controller" js6G="a7663300-5deb-11e7-8001-444553540000"

Copy the jsN lines away (notepad or the like)

js5="Saitek Pro Flight X-55 Rhino Stick" js5G="6f187bc0-5d28-11e7-8006-444553540000" 
js6="X65F Flight Controller" js6G="a7663300-5deb-11e7-8001-444553540000" 

I used the X55 Template as I have that stick - you would do the same with the TM template and device

Select Template (here x55)

RESET LOAD AND GRAB

In the new XML - change:

<ActionMaps  version="1" >

To

<ActionMaps  version="1" 
	js2="Saitek Pro Flight X-55 Rhino Stick" js5G="6f187bc0-5d28-11e7-8006-444553540000" 
>

(NOTE the device string is in the brackets...
THE JS Number is changed to the one the template expects (for the x55 the Stick is js2)

You would need to add your devices

THEN...

GRAB (Button)

JS Reassign - all should be n.a. now - change X-55 ... To Js2 (the one from the template)

DUMP (Button)

JS Reassign change X-55 .. To Js6 (the real one now - yes mine is at Js6 ..)
(you need to reassign both to the real ones)

DUMP (Button)

DUMP and SAVE to any file

RESET LOAD AND GRAB the saved one

This worked here...

Thanks, so basically i

• Reset > Reset to Empty
• Then ran Config > Js Reassign Dialog > Reassign Joystick Numbers
• Swapped my TWCS to js2 and T.16000M.Joystick to js1
• Dump XML then copied everything from first line up to and incl
• Selected my layout_ingeon.xml > Reset load and grab and then replaced the first 23 lines with the copied items

I thought that using Reassign Joystick Numbers only swapped the mapped sticks vs the js names instead of rebinding\renaming\swapping all the js1 & js2 bind names also. I think having both options would be very handy

So SCJmapper at the moment thus completely swaps js1 with js2 (stick names and all bindings) and vice versa instead of only rebinding stick 1 to js2 and vice versa z

I prefer not to use any other 3rd party apps to swap around devices etc.
