Is there a quick solution to add more buttons?

[Maico]

I keep it all on a excell document. THat way I dont forget where I put that command.. "Was it Shift+ this button, Oh Damn, that was eject"

Start by opening the software to the X-45 and assigning keys to the buttons. A, B, C, ect. Of course make sure you assign Ctrl and Shift. I put Ctrl on the throttle and Shift on the Joy, but to each his own. Assign the A, B, ect in game. Then assign the Ctrl+A ect. If you want a copy of my Excell let me know I will email to you.

Is this possible? Would CoD just see another number pad as another control device? I have a lot of buttons mapped already, but would like to use one as a dedicated bomb control panel. I already use a CH fighterstick, pedals and a Saitek throttle quad.

Uther - I think numpads are treated as keyboard devices. Certainly I have an extra one to get away from using the actual keyboard and all it does is duplicate the keyboard numpad.

Thanks phoenix, looks like that idea is a no go then! Thought it would be too easy.

I think you could use two if you were careful to not use the same key's (or combos) on two keypads for seperate commands. For instance, on one keypad you could map say "5" for bail out and on a second keypad you would bind a "6 & 5" press to open canopy. Probably help to look at this kit to get a better idea of what I'm driving at

It seems at first to be based on keyboards but I did see a you tube video where a person more or less made a button box out of keypad.......nice solution to get around buying buttons, hardware and electronics and then wiring things up.

Wait for Sokol to post a solution.

In the meantime, Touchbuddy (and a second monitor) could be a solution.
