I don't even know where to start with this one. Downloaded Elite Dangerous after buying Odyssey last night. I set up my X56 again and loaded the game, only to realize that I needed to put my old binds back. Problem was that of course, my custom set for HCS was for Horizons (I used Voice Attack). I followed the guide to the letter about lost binds, but have made no progress. I spent over an hour making a new set of binds because even after changing the appropriate line in my old binds file, the profile never showed up in game. I've done everything I could think of, but when I go into the control options, my setup (named simply "HCS") is nowhere to be found. Looking in the appropriate folders, I can see the file is there, name and data changed appropriately, plain as day. I removed all of t he other .bind except for "Custom" in the folder just to make sure I still had SOMETHING in case the HCS profile didn't show up. Sure enough, loading back in, it wasn't there. I altered the startup profile information, it still wasn't there. I checked the start preference files after closing the game, and the changes had been reverted all on its own.
What's worse is that for some bizarre reason, using my throttle to slow down by any amount causes multiple things to happen: 1) galaxy map opens 2) landing gear is lowered 3) FSD starts charging. All of this happens at the same time when I pull the throttle back. I cleared all of the bindings in the other three categories in game (general, SRV, on foot) because I thought that I might have multiple binds in the different categories interacting with each other. No idea why I thought this because it makes no sense.
Long story short, Odyssey will not recognize my old control profile no matter what I do and it does not show in gamer, and the throttle causes three different things to happen simultaneously. I have no idea what's going on and found absolutely nothing so decided to ask here.
EDIT I previously thought that the bind files were responsible for the strange throttle issue, but it turns out that after re-binding the throttle to a elsewhere, I managed to land without issue. No idea what's going on with the actual throttle itself, but I'm going to keep testing if no one has any ideas.
