USBMacros

Simple tool to map second usb keyboard keys to some key combinations, useful everywhere you may need some extra buttons e.g. flight simulators.

This tool exist as I couldn't find any tools that would work propertly with DCS.

How it works

It's directly communicating with usb keyboard by bypassing system HID keyboard driver with libusb(WinUSB to be specific).

New inputs are send throught SendInput API.

Currently only one keyboard is supported.

Install WinUSB driver using zadig for specific keyboard, after that keyboard will no longer be detected as input device.

Download latest release from releases.

Modify config.yaml to match your needs, especialy keyboard vendor id, product id and mappings.

Run usbmacro.exe

Install dependencies:

pip install pyusb libusb pydirectinput

Run as administrator:

python usbmapper.py
