Thrust master T Flight HOTAS X. How to make it work on mac?

[Raptor kerman]

Hey, I run a Mac mini updated to the latest OS X (forgot the name sorry), I recently bought a Thrustmaster T Flight HOTAS X, I plugged it into the mac and opened  KSP. All the buttons work apart from the hat and the swing like button behind the thrust lever. However, the joystick and and thrust levers don't work. Even with the drivers converted using the Wine application. Does anyone knowledgable have an answer to this problem? Otherwise I've waste 60 euros...

Also, I run 1.1.3.   

Thanks in advance, I really don't to have to sell this joystick...

Moving to Tech Support, since this is really more about "how to make hardware work with the game" rather than "how to play the game".

I have no idea what the answer to your question might be, myself, but here's a quick search for "HOTAS" in thread titles-- you're not the first person to want to hook one up.  Perhaps worth browsing those threads to see whether they might have something helpful?

Hi @Raptor kerman, the hat switch and the joystick axis are analogue inputs, I assume the swing like button behind the thrust lever is as well, please make sure you're binding them to the axis bindings on the right hand side of the settings screen, the bindings are marked as pitch axis, roll axis, yaw axis etc.

They will not work when binding them to the digital button inputs on the left, e.g. pitch down, roll left etc.

Hope this helps.
