Basically the joystick bindings are screwing with my key bindings. I need to be able to clear a few of the joystick controls from my controls in settings. However when I try to remove the setting nothing happens. I cant seem to "empty" or clear the particular control or setting under joysticks. Is there a way to do this ?

TY

dont know if it works, but try this:
rebind every funktion (one after an other) to the same button. so there should be only one binding left. to even erase theis one go to \MWO\MechWarrior Online\USER\Profiles\yourprofile and open aktionmaps.xml in your wordpad. now erase the last left keybinding.

I've had the same issue for a while now. Actionmaps.xml in both default and my profile are empty.

Maybe there's a better way these days, but I think you need to reset to default on menu>options on the client. Annoying because you will need to rebind/remap/readjust everything to it's former settings, but I think this is the only reliable way to undo any existing bindings...

Keep in mind that there is default joystick settings that are in the third column until they are mapped to something else, but they should not interfere with keymapping, at least not to a keyboard. If you are using some other gamepad/numpad thing there could be a conflict...

Honestly I just used reset all keys option in the option / settings menu to reset mine when I got confused while setting the Thrustmaster Hotas X up for use in MWO.

My wish is that they soon establish a lookspring. I should note I did no adjustments in XML files or anything else, however.

I used this in my user.cfg as given by Paul in terms of joystick controls.

Note this was modified to suit my preferences of sensitivity and includes my field of view.

Sadly until there's a lookspring, I'm only using the throttle end of this guy.
