  1. Shouldn't matter as it should be using the AXIS_THROTTLEn_SET controls, but if you are using the THROTTLEn_SET controls and you don't see the calibration values change, then uncheck it. No...they look pretty standard,,,, You have to clear the Throttle calibration to see this - click the Reset button for the Throttle. Also better to set a larger idle range for the individual throttle calibration rather than just 0...
  2. Did you try this, as specified on page 44 of the FSUIPC6 User guide: Don't forget to uncheck the NRZ (No Reverse Zone) checkbox on page 3 of the calibration screens when you calibrate. Otherwise, if you don't want to map to 4 throttles, you can assign to throttle 1 (and maybe also throttle 2) instead of just throttle, and then calibrate them on page 3 of the calibration screens, making sure NRZ is unchecked.

  3. Ok, great - thanks for the update, saves me some time! John
  4. No. The installer is needed as, it also needs to update the MSFS EXE.xml file to add the auto-start of FSUIPC7 with MSFS. The installer also updates the windows registry (with the installed location paths) and generates the uninstaller. However, you can install manually if required. I can, as a one off, provide you with 3 zip files - one for FSUIPC7, one for the FSUIPC7 WASM module and one for the FSUIPC7 documentation. It would be up to you to manually modify the MSFS EXE.xml to enable auto-start. However, this would be a one off- I will not be making such zip files available on each release of FSUIPC7. Let me know if you want to provide you with the 3 zip files, but it may take me a few days to put these together. John
  5. The file is provided as-is from MobFlght. Comparing the new one to the old one,. it looks like many of the KA_* events (as well as others) have been renamed rather than removed. Not sure why MF did this as it is bound to create issues with folks using the older preset names. I will ask about this on the MF discord channel. I have attached the previous events.txt file used for reference - you can diff this with the current one to see the changes (various free tools available for this): events.txt Probably better to update to use the new names, if available... Yes, many of them are generic - not sure why they are listed under the King Air rather than as generic Asobo events. John
  6. License sent. John
  7. Line 10 is not pressed.... when you press button 6 on joystick 0 then the assignments on that button, which are stored/saved in your ini file, are triggered, The assignment stored in line 10 is only activated when button 0 on joystick 0 is also pressed, and the assignment stored on line 20 is only activated when button 0 on joystick 0 is not also pressed. Pressing button 6 (on joystick 0) will trigger the assignment stored in line 10 if button 0 is also pressed, and the assignment stored in line 20 if not. By also pressing button (joystick 0) at the same time, This will then trigger the assignment at line 10 and not the one on line 20. But all this should be obvious, so I don't understand what/why you are asking this... please use FSUIPC's logging facilities to see what is happening - activate logging for Buttons & Keys and open the logging console and this will show you what is happening in real-time. Any further issues or questions, please raise a separate relevantly titled topic - but only after checking the documentation and also this forum for similar issues first. And any problem with assignments, please attach your FSUIPC7.ini and FSUIPC7.log files (with relevant logging activated). I am closing/locking this topic now. John

  9. But its not 2022 x86 and x64 combined, it is 2015, 2017, 2019 & 2022 combined, with separate packages for x86 (32-bit) and x64 (64-bit). Not sure what your initial issue was, but glad its now working... But, this is not the place for such issues anyway, which have also been reported many many times before and always with the same resolution. This topic is for requesting a trial license only.... John
  10. No - the combined package also installs the latest VC++ redistributables for 2015, 2017 and 2019. The registration checker is an older utility, used by the installer, which requires the 2019 (or maybe 2017) redistributables, which is why you need to install the latest combined package.
  11. It may have the latest VC++ libraries installed, but it won't have the latest combined package which is the one needed....this is always the issue that people have with new PCs/laptops... John
  12. Please see the provided Installation and Registration guide, section Invalid Key Problems. You will need to install the latest combined VC++ redistributables.
  13. Presets will be loaded even when the WASM module is not detected in the next release, and I have also added the ini parameter ExitIfEventsAreMissing. I will probably release this version (7.3.22) tomorrow. The new version is attached below if you would like to try it. John FSUIPC7.exe
  14. There is no "demo" version of FSUIPC. There is only one version, and the additional facilities provided by having a license/registered copy are only available once you have registered your license. You do this at the end of the installation process. Please see the provided documentation in installing and registering FSUIPC7. John
  15. I can easily update to load the presets even when the WASM isn't installed, but handling the missing events files is trickier. I will see if I can handle this better, otherwise I will add the 'ExitIfEventsAreMissing=Yes" ini file option.
  16. This will cause the same issue - when the FSUIPC detects that the WASM isn't available, it won't load the preset files and you will get the same problem. I will look into rectifying this... John
  17. Can you please show me your FSUIPC7.ini file so that I can see your assignments. Also an FSUIPC7.log file generated showing your issue would be useful - activate logging for Axis Controls, load your aircraft and move the assigned axis that isn't working through its full range, then exit FSUIPC7 before attaching the files. And please make sure that it is a full log file and not a continuation log file, i.e. do NOT use the New Log feature. Finishing now for the day/weekend - I may take a look tomorrow, otherwise it will be Monday now, John
  18. i do nor provide or support the GoFlight Interface Tool or GFDevFSX, whatever that is. Please contact the providers of these utilities if you want to use them. I do support the GF driver for FSUIPC, available from http://fsuipc.com/, which I believe also supports the GF MCPPRO. You need the 64-bit drivers for use with FSUIPC7 and MSFS2020. Side-by-side is the windows WinSxS folder, used to hold shared libs and dlls - see https://www.thewindowsclub.com/winsxs-folder-windows-7-8. John
  19. This can happen if/when FSUIPC is started and cannot read the preset file(s) (events.txt and myevents,txt). As it cannot map the preset name to its control number, the control number reverts to 0 and this value is then used when the ini file is re-written. I am not sure what happened in your case, i.e. why FSUIPC could not load the presets. Did you manually remove or rename the events.txt file at some point? I am not sure if there is anything i can do about this but will take a look to see if I can prevent such assignments being re-written if the preset cannot be found. In the mean-time, just back-up your FSUIPC7.ini file occasionally, when you have added or changed any assignments. Please also check that you are using the latest version of FSUIPC7, which is currently 7.3.21. John
  20. There is a specific option for this on the 3rd calibration page. From the FSUIPC User guide, page 44: Alternatively, you can assign an axis to up to 4 controls, so you can just assign one lever to engine 1 & 2 throttle control, and the other lever to the controls for engines 3 & 4., John
  21. Ok, but that seems strange, PMDG aircraft usually have issues with FSUIPC calibration if assigned in the sim or in FSUIPC with 'Send to FS as normal axis' due to priority levels. In FSUIPC6 an earlier, even though they are called 'hot keys' they are no actual windows hot keys, just key assignments to common functions. They work the same as having the equivalent key assignment, and so provide no added functionality really. This is why they were removed in FSUIPC7. Ok, good! Cheers, John
  22. Yes - or the throttlesync on/off controls Yes - you need to assign the throttles in FSUIPC only, and with 'Send direct to FSUIPC calibration'. It doesn't work in FSUIPC7 when assigned in the FS or when assigned with 'Send to FS as normal axis'. Does it work in P3D when the throttle is assigned in P3D? That would surprise me, especially with PMDG aircraft (which I do not have for P3D and so cannot check unfortunately). John
  23. Can you first check your key assignments in MSFS - is the 'M' key assigned there? If so, remove that assignment - by default it is assigned to Magneto... If you still have issues after that, please show me/attach your FSUIPC7.ini file, and also your profile-specific ini file if using profiles-in-separate-files. I am pretty busy at the moment but will take a look when time permits. John
  24. I did check this and it is the same in all versions of P3D. I have also asked about this on the LM developer forums but have yet to receive a reply. I will update if and when I get one... Cheers, John
  25. Please see the WideeFS Technical document on how to start programs from WideClient. There is no [Programs] section in the WideClient.ini - you need to use the [User] section, there is no RunIf command, and no actions. Instead of: try: John
