T.Flight HOTAS 4 and Linux

[TehFreek]

I recently acquired a Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS 4 and have been trying to use it with X4. I needed to install a module for it (https://github.com/walterschell/tflight4) in order to get all the axes and buttons to work, barring a few minor issues. When I try to configure X4, the game refuses to acknowledge all the axes and buttons, for some reason believing that I have a gamepad instead. I can assign the three stick axes (X, Y, twist), but the throttle and hat and the additional axis created for the rudder rocker via a module option as well as the majority of buttons refuse to be seen.

Please tell me what I need to provide in order to help you solve the issue. I can provide screenshots, vidcap, logs, whatever will be helpful. Thank you.

Have you tried to use the HOTAS profile as base for it? Steam user here has a HOTAS X profile that may be similar.

I tried both the built-in HOTAS profiles as well as the linked profile, but they were unable to make the game see all the axes and buttons on the device.

I just realized that I should probably post that I'm running the current beta, 4.20 Beta (464483).

If its not recognising teh axes chances are its a driver issue, have you checked in the device manager that its set up right?

PS.: Dont think the game version would make a difference to your referred issue.

`jstest` shows all axes and buttons working normally with a few non-interfering exceptions once I load the module.
