amberdog1 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Ive been using this in FSX for years now, I have tried to map it in fs2020 to no avail, please help me. I've spent $120 for the game, and I'd really not want to spend another $100 or more for a controller if I don't have to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonMan Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Ive been using this in FSX for years now, I have tried to map it in fs2020 to no avail, please help me. I've spent $120 for the game, and I'd really not want to spend another $100 or more for a controller if I don't have to. Also had the same problem and figured it out, created this account to share. When selected on the AV8R in the control menu, on the left side is filter, once i choose all it let me finally assign controls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try to share my AV8R controller profile, it took me a while to map some basic controls, trims, HAT/POV switches etc. Sent from my SM-A515F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkhawaja Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I will try to share my AV8R profile which had the basic controls mapped. Took me a while to make it. It has: Camera switch, internal/external Camera view HAT/POV Flight controls, flaps, landing gear Trims, elevator and aileron Active pause Throttle Rudder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkhawaja Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) av84profile.txt Attached my profile for the AV8R joystick. It was in the following folder (this is the Windows Store version FS2020, not Steam): C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\SystemAppData\wgs\0009000000A24FF2_00000000000000000000000069F80140\30AE2E26EA044B7CAAE1AAFE4A60A395 You will need to use the actual file and folder names in your FS2020 install folder. 1. Go to C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\SystemAppData\wgs\0009000000A24FF2_00000000000000000000000069F80140 folder and take a screenshot of the existing folders. 2. In FS2020, create a new profile for the AV8R controller. Save it and exit. 2. Go to C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\SystemAppData\wgs\0009000000A24FF2_00000000000000000000000069F80140 folder and look for a newly created folder (other than the ones from Step 1). 3. In that new folder you will see a file with a long alphanumeric name, like F690BCAD75ED4149A403B9059B4EB48A, and a container.x (some number). Open the alphanumeric named file in a text editor, and replace it's contents with contents of the attached profile file. 4. Save and close the file 5. Go to FS2020 and check the newly created Av8R profile again, it should have all the mappings. Edited September 5, 2020 by hkhawaja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amberdog1 Posted September 7, 2020 Author Share Posted September 7, 2020 I am getting there finally. Trigger is breaks, Button 2 is nav/gps mode. 3 & 4 are right/left breaks 5 flaps decrease, 6 flaps increase, 7 throttle decrease, 8 throttle increase 10 parking break, and 11 landing gear. My 2 throttle levers will work but its all or nothing. I can't adjust the throttle back to like 75% with them. The buttons work fine. Forgot about the hat switch, have them for looking inside the cockpit... Its a work in progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
