PMDG + FSUIPC + PFChid troubles


Recommended Posts

OK, I previously had a PFC C2 and the PMDG 737/777 and everything was working just fine. Just got a brand new computer, brand new Prepar3D v3 install + PMDG install + FSUIPC install + my same PFC C2. Now whenever I load up a PMDG aircraft the "internal state" is all wonky. Thrust levers have no effect, starting the APU has weird side effects, etc. Removing the PFChid.dll file from my Modules/ directory fixes everything so I know the issue is something there.

I can't for the life of me figure out what the difference between my old P3D install and my new one might be that's causing this. Any potential avenues to investigate?

In case you care, here's my PFChid.ini:
