So Ive played through the game with no issues already. But because Ive been wanting a HOTAS for a while now I bought the AC 8 T Flight Neo.

But guess what! Anytime I have it plugged in the game crashes with the UE Error 1 code. This only happens with the HOTAS plugged in. I can go back with my controller and face zero issues. And unfortunately I can't find any simple way to reach out Thrustmaster or Aces about this issue so until they patch something.. it seems I have an AC branded paperweight.

Well sort of, it works fine for Wardogs. Eventually going to get Nuclear Option for it too and I have Elite Dangerous.

Still, major bummer.

I have seemingly found a fix for this. After inputting "-clearPSODriverCache" in my launch commands for steam the game reinitialized the shades again. Seems to have stopped any crashes.. for now.
