X52 Input mapping refinement request

[phillowAT]

Hi there!

Dear J2KBR, fantastic work with the new HID for the X52! As i understand, it seems to be hard to add all physical Inputs, so i would like to request a change of the HID to maximise the usage. Please find table underneath. Reason for: we have 3 rotary/slider which are not really much useful, as XB/PS does have limited analogs, which are in use already in favour of other functions (also to be as close to the gamepad mapping as possible). Also, as far as my knowledge goes, i haven´t found any script for the X52 where those analog channels are used.

Therefore it would make sense to switch over and refine it to: (Naming according to: LINK)

Mouse Click 2	POINT_2_Y	POINT_2_Y

Mode Switch 2		ACCEL_2_Z
Mode Switch 3	(calulated by	Switch1+2)

for the new physical inputs coming in:

• we saw already the Mode Switches (sure you are aware of)
• Pinky Switch: this one was mapped at the very initial generic HID, or to PS before 1.11 (which was the generic too)
• Mouse Scroll UP/Down: here i hope for your magic to find & bind them :)

As you also saw, i did some changes in PADDLE´s and some random to get a more consistent HID for the joystick (optional). Also the change of Button 15/16, would then reflect the Thrustmaster T-Flight layout.

EDIT: as GYRO/ACCEL/POINT channels does give us issues (e.g. using POINT_2_Y as button, while having POINT_2_X mapped to the Slider atm, PS/DS is backfiring values, causing issues with those channels, even when "zeroed" in script by:

  	if(get_val(POINT_2_X)) {
		set_val(POINT_2_X, 0);
    }

Therefore, obviously new Button channels for (where there are buttons) would come in really handy

Many thanks in advance!!!

today, i tried to remap (prepare) my proposal based on the existing channel offering and failed miserably. There seem to be more dependencies between ACCEL/GYRO/POINT channels as i thought. Pls find my remap attempt here:

    // swap buttons 15 and 16
    remapper(X52buttonSwap);
	remapper_disable(BUTTON_18);
	remapper_disable(BUTTON_19);
	remapper_disable(BUTTON_20);
	remapper_disable(POINT_2_Y);
	remapper_disable(GYRO_1_Z);

In the end, all "BUTTON_*" are doing fine, but others are only partly working, therefore i call it a fail.

with a colleague, we figured out a remapping/re-asignment that should work out for both version (and hopefully all platforms). Please find the proposal here: https://www.consoletuner.com/forum/download/file.php?id=4242

based on the collaboration work done here: https://www.consoletuner.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=17720&p=111857&hilit=X52#p111546

It would be great to test the behavior upfront without putting it into the next update right away for a POC.

Many thanks in advance!
