Gimx adapter

Post by Wubxxi- »

Okay so i built a gimx adapter and only used the fps config tool because it was much simpler and i finally got use to it and the other config tool called "config". I never knew how to make different profiles so i just used one for a fps called rainbow six siege and i finally used "config" to make two profiles. I made both of the profiles but i didn't know how to fine tune my mouse settings in config so i opened the same file that had 2 profiles in fps config and i fixed it there but, it made a glitch where it combined both profiles and lets say q was to lean left. Q would also be my sprint button which was originally capslocks. I know its because i opened the config file in the fps config but is there a way to undo that with out having to recreate my whole file/config?

I moved your topic to the GIMX discussion section.

You have to fix your config using gimx-config. You should have the same bindings in both profiles.

And for the calibration you should use the calibration tool: https://gimx.fr/wiki/index.php?title=Mouse_Calibration

I understand what your saying but when i enter the fps config app and open that file it said profiles 1 & 2 do not contain the same bindings. Editing this conf with gimx-fpscinfig can mess the bindings

I don't understand this. I also don't know what matter or what it means to be moved into a gimx discussion.

The difference between profiles are sensitivity, accele, deadzone,... not buttons. So if buttons are not matched in all profiles, the warning message will show up.
Of course if you want to change button layout to suit your control purpose (like driving mode, airplane mode, ...) you can use 2 or more profiles without a same buttons layout and ignore that warning message.

One more question. I made a config for rainbow six siege where you knife with one analog and sprint with the other while hip firing or not ads-ing, when aiming down sights you can lean with left and right analog. is it possible to make 2 profiles, one for hip aim and aiming down sights?

Of course you can. What you need to do is just open gimx-config, uncheck Link Controls and bind any keys you want in profile 1 / 2.
