IL2 Bug with X52 throttle control

[totalize]

Any idea when the bug that reverses throttle inputs will be fixed? The increasing value for more power by pushing the throttle forward does not work. There is no way to fix it. Reversing the axis does not work nor does partial binding. It's kind of annoying to have to pull back on the throttle to get power when it the reverse should be the case.

My X-52 works perfectly OK.

Reversing the throttle axis works OK.

 

Make sure you press accept after changing anything.

Does it occur with all planes? Or do you observe this with a specific airplane, like for example the Tempest or Typhoon? These two planes need to have the mixture lever

in full position to start the engine, but after engine is running you need to set the mixture lever to normal, because only in this position you will be able to move the throttle
lever forward.

Other thing to consider: If you're running the game as administrator for some reason (usually this is not necessary), this might also have an impact with your input device.
Happened to me the other day. All of a sudden my Saitek Flight Control Panel didn't work anymore in IL2 GB - in the "other" combat sim it was working perfectly.
So I checked different settings, but alas my Saitek FCP didn't work and the input couldn't be read by IL2 GB. Then I realised that I was running IL2 GB as administrator,
which is completely silly, as I already have admin rights on my account. I unchecked the option "run as administrator" and launched the game. And tata! Saitek FCP was
working again.

occurs with all planes. Doesn't do this in DCS so its somehow game related.

OK, then. But did you check my other suggestion? Checking if the game is running in admin mode? Check it!

Other approach: After launching the game, can you see/check the different axis in the key mapping section? Like this:

 

 

Does your throttle axis move?

I will check and let you know.
