I got FSUIPC6 to work in P3D V5. I am not quite sure why it works now, but it does. I had 2 full installations: one in "C:\Users\***\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons" and one in "C:\Users\***\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons\FSUIPC6". I deleted all files in "C:\Users\***\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons" under the assumption that they were redundant since they were also in "C:\Users\***\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons\FSUIPC6". When I deleted the files, FSUIPC6 no longer showed up in the P3D v5 "Add Ons" drop down menu and it was as if FSUIPC6 did not exist. So I restored the files in "C:\Users\***\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add Ons" and when I did everything returned to normal. FSUIPC6 worked fine in P3D v5. Case closed. Problem resolved. P3D v 4.5 is running fine on FSUIPC5.15 and P3D v5 is running fine on FSUIPC6.

John, as I said in my previous email, I copied it to the C:\Users\***\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons" folder per instructions. I did this prior to installation of FSUIPC6. Is that not correct? Yes, I have a reasonably current version of my FSUIPC5.ini available. I installed v6.0.3 to P3D V5 only. I copied a good copy of FSUIPC5.ini into "C:\Users\***\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons\FSUIPC6", renamed it FSUIPC6.ini. Took off with what seemed to be normal flight controls using X-45 joystick. P3D V5 recognized my joystick for a couple of minutes then did not respond to flight control inputs such as elevator, rudder, thrust or aelerons. Interestingly enough, after exit from P3D V5, I noticed that FSUIPC6 is installed in "C:\Users\***\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons" and in "C:\Users\***\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons\FSUIPC6". I would assume it belongs in C:\Users\***\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons\FSUIPC6". Am I correct? Reverted back to FSUIPC5.15 for P3D V4.5. It now works fine again. Everything appears normal with P3D v4.5 FSUIPC6.0.3 installation for P3D V5 did not work. I ended up with 2 installations which I assume is the problem. Guidance please. Thanks for the help.

Yes, I renamed FSUIPC5.ini to FSUIPC6.ini and placed it in the C:\Users\***\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons" folder per instructions. I did this prior to installation. It appears that the installation overwrote the ".ini file. Do you concur? Can I simply rename an old version of FSUIPC5.ini to FSUIPC6.ini and be fixed? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Longtime FSUIPC user (FSX, FSX-SE, P3D v3-5) with Saitek X-64 joystick. No problems until FSUIPC6 installation. Using P3D 4.5 and 5 now. The problem in P3D v5 is that the X-64 joystick is not recognized at all. The only controller listed is mouse yoke. FSUIPC6.ini (copy of FSUIPC5.ini) lists joystick as X-64. FSUIPC6 registered copy listed in P3D ADD-ON dropdown menu. FSUIPC6 standard menu comes up, but Axis assignments and Button presses do not register as if the joystick wasn't connected. Partial success with P3D v4.5. FSUIPC6 recognizes X-64, accepts Axis assignments and Button presses; however, appears to no longer read aircraft profiles so incomplete transition to FSUIPC6. Any help here would really be appreciated. Thanks in advance. FSUIPC6.ini
