Fix controller and mouse setting in Xbox

I can’t use any aircraft on 2024, I can spawn at airports yes but in the end the controls on the trhusmaster hotas are all reversed, the mouse is completely broken, the little arrow that is usually a moderate size has become huge and I can’t click anything and if I want to move the view using the right mouse button it starts to go crazy spinning all over the place with no control

I had the same problem with reverse axis. This is solved by clicking the little cog next to the binding and moving the slider next to reverse axis. Not having the same problem with the enlarged mouse. Hope you get it sorted as my first flight after a frustrating setup was good. I flew my usual test route EGCC to EGPH

Same here for issues, but for me now its only the mouse issue as I am right handed and it seems the mouse is defaulted for left handed users, but there is no options to invert the mouse settings and when I tried my sim now displays I have 2 mouse in Controllers menu instead of the one I have connected. So frustrating but hopefully a fix is coming from Asobo and Microsoft on this part of it.

Same here. Completely impossible to use the mouse on xbox. Feels like they never started the Sim on a console before release…

This morning all my settings were restored to default and the sim isn’t saving any preferences that I have setup so I am reconfiguring everything before being able to fly.

So, check your xbox dashboard settings mouse button preference if it is set to left or right button. I am a lefty, and tried/failed to get msfs2020 to take the dashboard setting of left button, but 2024 is working well. I assumed it was because the sim now honours the dashboard setting correctly but maybe its just a bug and is left button for all?

Oh never thought of that - I will try it tomorrow when I am free before work to see if it helps. Thank you

I don’t know, on consoles I think they didn’t do so many tests, the mouse arrow then what does it have to do with it being huge on 2024 ?

Thank you so very very much it worked and it also fixed the other issue of my settings not saving… but that might have been another thing Asobo and Microsoft resolved at the same time possibly.

How did you do it?

Same problems from my sude … impossible to play :rage:… and the graphics are horrific :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Xbox controller: There is problem with asigning analog input to some functions e.g. moving around cockpit. It just doesn’t work although the input field is filled.

Mouse: It’s impossible to look around. It’s too sensitive.

For me the graphics is good, I have only problem with the Thrustmaster hotas one, mouse and controller. It’s all buggy for now, hope an update for us will be available soon

I was advised by another to try to this and it fixed my mouse issue for right handed. On your Xbox console - open SETTINGS (The actual console - NOT in the sim) - Select DEVICES & CONNECTIONS - Select MOUSE - UNCHECK the box beside “SWITCH PRIMARY & SECONDARY MOUSE BUTTONS” - and this resolved the inverted mouse issue… on a weird note it also fixed the other settings not saving as well. I hope this helps some.
