![]() The instructions are fairly simple, and don’t require anything more than cutting and pasting a few dozen lines of code. Right now it’s a little intimidating, coming in at over 40 pages, but that’s because it includes instructions for everything from the Steam Controller to the ancient n52 Nostromo Speedpad. Next, you’ll want to head over to the community-generated guide on Google Docs. Inside you’ll find a REMAP file titled “HOTASMappings.” Copy it and rename it to “HOTASMappings_old,” then double click on it, assign it to Window’s Notepad program, and open it up. Then, head into the MW5Mercs > Saved > SavedHOTAS folder. ![]() You can head there directly by hitting the Windows key and inputting the location manually (C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME_HERE\AppData\Local) or by typing out %appdata% and noodling around a little bit. Job one is to find your local AppData file in Windows. MechWarrior 5’s combat is on target, but other parts fall flat Hopefully your setup is added to the catalog soon, and you won’t need these workarounds at all. Your mileage may vary, and take careful note of what you change as you go along so you can roll back to the original state if need be.Īlso, be aware the the developers at Piranha Games are likely adding more and varied default controller settings, so keep tabs on the official website as well for more info as patches continue to roll out. Understand that additional updates currently in the development pipeline mean that this guide may not apply forever. Even after lengthy delays and a big post-launch patch, things are still a bit rough for MechWarrior 5. Here’s how to get your PC gear up and running with the first simulation-style ‘Mech combat game of its kind in nearly 20 years.įirst, a few caveats. Luckily the community has come together with a pile of workarounds for many of the most popular setups - including solutions for Saitek/Logitech, Thrustmaster, and CH Products equipment you might already own. If you’re having trouble getting your flight stick, HOTAS, or rudder pedals working correctly, you’re not alone. Hope it all gets sorted out eventually.MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries launched with only partial support for a limited set of peripherals. Spent 2-3 hours this morning on debugging Thrustmaster and fs2020. I’ve mapped other buttons and used one of them for the parking brake (which default config is A button). So I am using the up/right and not using the ‘A’ button for anything. Then I found I can’t assign the A button and X button to separate tasks as the game gets confused and thinks they are the same button. So can’t use ‘A’ button with up/right mapped with the hat. All the pov directions work except if you map the up/right view to the up/right pov in the drop down then the ‘A’ button on the throttle acts like the up/right function! The mapping of the up/right does NOT warn you or anything so you find out about it when you test the mapping in game. Found you can’t scan the hat switch itself - you need to select from the drop down joystick pov selections if you want to map the hat switch. ![]() I was assigning cockpit left, right, up, down, left up, right up, left down, right down to hat switch. This is not to say there are not problems even when scanning. Just make sure focus is on the empty scan field before you click a button. ![]() If you can use a mouse try it - probably can focus with controller on the field as well. Problem was that focus was not in the blank scanning field so when clicking a button nothing appeared to be scanning. I had same issue with scanning but got scanning to work. ![]()
