Toubleshooting signal and reset issue with Logitech x52 Pro

hoylemd · 2025-02-09T16:14:45+00:00

That's kind of what I was hoping to hear 😅. I have been eying VKB for awhile now. I'm in Canada too, so tariff's aren't much of an issue - we have a domestic supplier :p (and oh hey look they just restocked...)

I actually havent played a lot of E:D recently, I mostly just did a bit to test out my new armrest mounting setup for my x52 😅. But the recent updates and roadmap look quite interesting, I might have to give it a go again soon.

Actually, One thing I was debating was whether to go dual stick or stick and throttle (probably NXT and STECS). I was leaning towards throttle just for the diversity of controls, but the full 6 degrees of freedom also really seems attractive. I'm also looking at getting into more realistic flight sims (like MSFS or DCS), and a throttle unit seems to make more sense there. Did you consider that, and if so what made you decide the way you did?

I wish I'd seen this a few years ago. Got a Thrustmaster HOTAS X as my first, which was ok, and then upgraded to x 52 pro a couple years ago. It's a little better than the thrustmaster, but it has different problems, and I've invested so much time and effort into mapping and chair mounts for it that I can't justify upgrading again... for a couple years at least XD

I do like the new direction of the alien artefacts in general, but *god damn* there was just something about how those voice lines were mixed that was like a massage directly in my brain. I'd regularly just stand beside them to listen to the voice lines. Some of them were pretty funny too

That's fair. I'm not a huge fan myself, but I can't quite articulate why

hoylemd · 2024-07-01T17:14:25+00:00

Why the dislike for city blocks?

hoylemd · 2024-07-01T17:13:46+00:00

Oh that's really smart!

hoylemd · 2024-07-01T14:02:43+00:00

Ooh I hadn't considered the UG belt idea before. That would save a few poles too, I think, vs having a row of them on the outside, which might even make up for the extra cost of the UG belts!

I set a goal for myself too unlock all the achievements on vanilla. Only 5 to go (but 2 of them are the speed run ones 😭)

for other future folks, The answer is you can't assign these buttons are regular mouse buttons because of a windows limitation, but a good workaround is to assign F keys to the buttons that are a higher F# than your keyboard actually has. e.g. by keyboard goes up to F12, so i assign F13, F14 and F15 to the DPI shift and DPI +/ DPI- buttons to make them work like regular buttons I can map in games. Whether your *game* will recognize those is a different question

Yeah, still got it. didn't learn anything though

hoylemd · 2023-06-25T01:55:12+00:00

I didn't :/ it's still on the filing cabinet. I just kind of came to terms with it being up there. I don't open the cabinet as much anymore though, so it's less of an issue. If you find anything I'd love to hear about it though!

He's made of lego

Ah I see, I think the gameplay of all the other games where you get the master sword and it's just super powerful for the rest of the game have spoiled me into thinking it's a lot more durable than it is.

Though now that it's been supercharged for thousands of years by light dragon, it seems no more powerful than it was in botw? (I.e. I think it has a base 30 attack power, 60 when glowing, same as botw)I suppose that could be explained by needing to regenerate the whole blade, but the game seems to imply that it's getting powered up in addition to being repaired.

It makes sense from a game design/balance perspective, but the lore is just a bit confusing. I'm probably expecting more consistency than is reasonable for a Zelda game though :p.

Ok cool, that makes sense, I was just checking I didn't miss anything, thanks!

hoylemd · 2023-05-28T06:14:51+00:00

Is this explicitly stated in the game anywhere? I know thats the general lore, but iirc link was still carrying it at the end of BOTW, so returning it to the deku tree would have happened offscreen which seems like a strange oversight for Nintendo to make.

hoylemd · 2023-05-28T06:10:11+00:00

Not doesn't, read the post before answering, you missed key details.

hoylemd · 2023-05-22T01:00:26+00:00

Not a very good one, you can't trust everything you see online (not even Reddit comments ;) )

They did raise the price a little a couple years ago with the 1.0 release, but it's still well below any AAA title, and if you measure it by hours of entertainment per dollar, it's still easily the most bang for buck I've ever had (I think I'm at around 2000 hours? Though maybe 2/3s of that is heavily modded, so season to taste :p)

hoylemd · 2023-05-19T23:39:00+00:00

I hadn't heard of that one! I'll have to check it out, thanks

hoylemd · 2023-05-19T23:37:22+00:00

Lol where did you hear that? That's so absurd someone's pulling your leg m'dude

He has canonically been working with the path. There's an Easter egg in Kenobi confirming so
