  1. What was the problem? Is everything now working as expected?
  2. Looks like I forgot to remove that button....not sure how that has not been noticed before. I will remove in the next release. From the Advanced User guide: But there are and most probably never will be mouse macros for MSFS. The facilities in the SDK just do not exist to implement such a feature, and probably never will. MSFS has hvars instead (html variables), as well as calculator code that can be executed via presets. You should look into what presets are available (see https://hubhop.mobiflight.com/presets/) for the function that you want to implement via mouse macros. Presets are far easier to use than mouse macros. John
  3. Note that you should also not modify anything in the Community\fsuipc-lvar-module folder as this would get overwritten the next time you update. You should use the WASM persistent storage area - see the Advanced User guide for details. John
  4. You do not need to run as Administrator - the installer will request admin privileges when required. For any installation issues, you must show me/attach your InstallFSUIPC7.log file. John
  5. I have re-installed steam on my win7 system, and downloaded and installed FSX. The version this installs is 10.0.62615. I then ran FSX once, then installed FSUIPC4. I did get some registry issues (most probably due to duff registry entries from my previous installation), but the installer detected and fixed these. I then ran FSX again and FSUIPC4 was installed and working correctly. Did you try updating your FSX installation from the steam client? If not, try that. Otherwise uninstall and re-install. If you re-install, do not install into a windows protected folder, such as Program Files or Program Files (x86). With steam games, better to install under steamapps (the default), although not strictly necessary. John
  6. There is no Create Mouse Macro button in FSUIPC7 - FSUIPC7 / MSFS2020 does not support mouse macros. Note also that there is a specific sub-forum for FSUIPC7: https://forum.simflight.com/forum/183-fsuipc7-msfs/ John
  7. Please ALWAYS exit FSUIPC7 before attaching an FSUIPC7.log file. I cannot tell anything from the one you attached. Please start MSFS, and let that auto-start FSUIPC7. Then, load an aircraft and click Ready-to-Fly. Wait for 1 minute. Do you see any message in the FSUIPC7 main window, and if so, what? Then exit FSUIPC7, and show me your FSUIPC7.log file. John
  8. But I don't need to see that at the moment - that comment was for future reference. But your ini does show that you are still using the 7.3.8 beta. This has now been released, so please download the latest version. Did you install the WASM and the MF events.txt file? Both of those are needed. After you have reinstalled the latest version, if you still don't see the presets please show me your InstallFSUIPC7.log file as well as your FSUIPC7.log file. Not exactly sure what this means, but you enter the Rotor Brake parameter number in the Parameter box. When using an Offset control, you should see two boxes, one to enter the offset and another to enter the parameter. John
  9. Ok, I found the issue. The MAIN_annunAP_Amber[2] (65F3) and MAIN_annunAT_Amber[2] (65F6) were only allocated 1 byte each. This accounts for the 2-byte difference. So, the correct offsets are as follows: Updated document attached. John Offset Mapping for PMDG 737-700.pdf
  10. First, please don't attach images - they are far too small and I cannot see anything in them. For your assignments, I need to see your FSUIPC7.ini file. All additional PMDG offsets are read-only. You cannot/should not write to them. For control, you need to use either the custom controls via the Rotor Brake control or the available presets. For the former, see All PMDG presets should be available in the latest release, v7.3.8. To assign/see the available presets, you need to check the Select for presets checkbox. Since v7.3.8, presets have been moved to a separate drop-down menu. John
  11. I think it would be best if you uninstalled FSX and re-installed from the Steam client. My FSX on windows 7 is currently unavailable/corrupted as I recently cleaned-out some swappable disks. I am also going to re-install FSX from steam on my Windows 7 system to see where and what it installs... John
  12. You posted a continuation log - please don't do this, always attach a full log file as there is information I need to see. You should also exit FSUIPC7 before attaching a log file. But your ini shows that you are still using the lua hidAlphaButtons and hidBravoButton scripts. These have not been needed for a long time, as FSUIPC has supported up to 128 buttons since v7.1.0. You should remove these scripts and update your assignments to use the actual button numbers rather than the virtual ones. However, you do not have to do this, but you will see both the virtual and real button presses - the ones that you call phantom. But this is not an issue as long as you are only assigning to the virtual ones. As to your actual issue (fuel pumps not working) i would need to see a full log file, if you want to continue using the lua scripts. Note also you should update your profiles to use substring matching, so change to and to and to and to John
  13. Strange...just downloaded from Edge here and got 7.3.8, but I don't use Edge and so had nothing cached. I will revise/check the no-cache headers.... John
  14. Buttons 134 a 135 are for the left most switch, and there is no button 65 - see Button numbers in FSUIPC go from 0-31, 32-39 are for the POV, and then from 132-227. Can you please set logging for Buttons & Keys and Events, generate a log file showing your issue, and then attach your FSUIPC7.log file as well as your FSUIPC7.ini. John
  15. It could be that the lvars were not yet available when the scan was performed in the WASM. If this happens again, consider increasing the LvarScanDelay parameter in the FSUIPC_WASM.ini - details in the Advanced User guide. John
  16. Ok, thanks for the update. Rather strange though - there were no changes between the last beta and the released version. John
  17. There is not much I can do about this at the moment as the SDK for the PMDG 737-700 has still not been published, and I have received no information in SDK updates since version 3.0.25. I will take another look at the PMDG offsets but any information that you can provide is helpful - such as what is the last offset that is holding the correct information? ...maybe try the following offsets, adjusted backwards from 65FD which has been reported as MAIN_annunSPEEDBRAKE_ARMED: 65F3 2 BYTE x 2 MAIN_annunAP[2] Boolean 65F5 1 BYTE MAIN_annunAP_Amber[2] Boolean 65F6 2 BYTE x 2 MAIN_annunAT[2] Boolean 65F8 1 BYTE MAIN_annunAT_Amber[2] Boolean 65F9 2 BYTE x 2 MAIN_annunFMC[2] Boolean 65FB 1 BYTE x 2 MAIN_DisengageTestSelector[2] i.e. adjust the offsets by 2 bytes, It would be useful to determine the first offset that needs adjusting for this (or the last offset that is valid). It looks as if a new 2-byte variable has been added but I'm, not sure where... John
  18. 7.3.8 was released yesterday and is no longer in beta. There have been many changes/releases since v7.2.12 - check the FSUIPC History document for a list of changes. However, there should be no changes that break your configuration, but check the history document to see if there have been any changes to facilities that you are using - there have been quite a few changes to key assignments using modifiers, for example. Can you generate a log file showing your issue, with logging for Events and Buttons & Keys activated, then show me your FSUIPC6.log and FSUIPC7.ini files. John
  19. The additional PMDG offsets provided are specific to the PMDG aircraft (i.e. 747, 777, 737NGX - which one are you using?) and are defined in the provided Offset mapping documents. If they are not specified there, they will not be available. FSUIPC4 has been closed for development for many years, and I am not aware of any updates to the PMDG aircraft for FSX since it was closed - I don't own the PMDG aircraft for FSX. If you have the latest PMDG SDK header file for the aircraft, I could take a look to see if this has changed. Looking at the offset mapping for the PMDG 737, I can see that the takeoff config was added at offset 0x6c8f for the NGXu only. But this will be available in FSUIPC5 and FSUIPC6, not FSUIPC4. If this data is provided for the FSX PMDG aircraft, I could possibly add the new offsets but cannot guarantee this. Show me the header file and I will take a look. John
  20. I don't know why Edge is doing that - nothing has changed in the release process...you can always try downloading from www.fsuipc.com
  21. This looks to be a browser caching issue - try clearing your browser cache and retry... John

  23. I don't know (I don't use VR) - why don't you try it? There is a trial license available in a post at the top of this forum. FSUIPC7 doesn't do anything special for VR - your controller assignments will be the same as for none-VR. John
  24. I haven't looked at the SDK changes in detail yet - this will have to be after the release I'm afraid as I'm still not enrolled in the beta program. But this should work in the current release, and has been available since I released the FSUIPC WASM module, which handles lvars/hvars/calculator code, over a year ago. You can also use offset 0x7C50 for setting lvars, activating hvars and calling presets. 😁 Yes, unfortunately! I had planned this holiday for 2-3 weeks after the SU10 release, to give me time to review the SDK changes and update and release FSUIPC7 before I went away, but the delay in the SU10 release has made this a bit more tricky...hopefully I will geta chance to at least re-build and update anything important and release before I go away. Cheers, John P.S. v7.3.8 has been released.
  25. First, you posted in the Download Links sub-form, where it explicitly states NOT for support requests. Please take care to post in the correct forum for your issue. v4.977 is the latest and only supported version of FSUIPC for FSX. FSUIPC5 is for P3Dv4 only, and has been discontinued, replaced by FSUIPC6 which is valid for P3Dv4 and P3Dv5. John
