  1. No problem - thanks for the update. John
  2. No. FSUIPC7 includes the MobiFlight preset list (events.txt file) and all presets execute calculator code which is handled by the FSUIPC WASM module. A preset is just a name assigned to a calculator code string. You can also define your own presets in a file called myevents.txt. FSUIPC7 presets can also be parameterized (i.e. accept a parameter) which the MF ones don't. This doesn't prevent you using the MobiFlight WASM module if you want to to down that route. To use the MobiFlight WASM module with FSUIPC7, you would use event files (*.evt, included in the EventFiles folder of your FSUIPC7 installation folder) to make the events known to FSUIPC7. However, I think its simpler and more efficient to use presets these days rather than the event files, and you don't need to install the MF WASM module for this. John
  3. Then copy it again and check the contents - should contain the following: There is a key file which also includes a trial license for WideFS in this post if you want to try WideFS as well: You could do that I guess, but you can also make the toggle switch send the control directly using FSUIPC offsets. You can send any control via offset 0x3110, and you can activate presets (if using these) by preset name using offset 0x7C50. John
  4. When you uninstall manually and then re-install, FSUIPC will default to the install location C:/FSUIPC7 as it has no knowledge of your previous installation (as you have uninstalled it!). When the installer uninstalls, it remembers the location and will default to the previous installation location. Whenever you install, you should always check and set the installation location that you use. I have no idea what caused your issue. From what you say, the installer does contain the correct version. The installer should also detect your current installation and then uninstall this, which should remove the WASM module and manifest file, as well as everything else (but just checked and it leaves a hvar file and so also the top-level fsuipc-lvar-modules folder and also the nodules folder under this - I will correct this in the next release). Maybe next time you install, after the installer has ran the uninstaller, check what you have left under your Community folder.
  5. Did you restart FSUIPC7? Are you sure you placed the file in the correct folder - check by using the Open Installation Folder menu option under the File drop-down menu. Also check the file is called FSUIPC7.key Why do you need to assign keystrokes first, and not just directly assign your cockpit' buttons/switches directly to the corresponding functions? John
  6. No, sorry - the EXE.xml looks ok. A few people seem to be having this issue. Check that FSUIPC7.exe is not set to run as an administrator, and maybe check the permissions on the file and folder. If you cannot get the EXE.xml to start FSUIPC7, you can switch to the older method of starting FSUIPC7 via the MSFS.bat file (used by the MSFS icon that FSUIPC7 installs on your desktop). See the following posts: John
  7. FSUIPC7 is aircraft agnostic - it just provides access to the events and simulator variables (A:vars, L:vars) and allows you to execute calculator code on the FS. Assign your key press to the function that performs that operation. For the FBW (and many aircraft) where many standard controls don't work, you can search for a preset that implements the function using the MobiFlight HubHop resource: https://hubhop.mobiflight.com/presets/. Looking at that, I can see OVHD ELEC BATTERY 1 TOGGLE preset which is listed for the FBW dev version of the A320. You can assign to that using the control 'Preset: OVHD ELEC BATTERY 1 TOGGLE'.
  8. If writing to offset 0BC0 doesn't change the trim, then this implies that the aircraft does not respond to the Elevator Trim Set control/event. You could try with offset 0x2EA0 (Elevator Trim Position) instead. First monitor the offset and see if the values change when you adjust the trim, and if so you can try writing to that offset instead.. Otherwise, you could check if there are any lvars associated to the trim position.
  9. We can download it correctly, just can't unzip it. However, I just tried with 7zip and it worked with that, just not with the windows default extraction program. John
  10. Yes - I just tried and it tells me the (compressed) folder is empty. I think Pete must have made a mistake zipping it - can you check @Pete Dowson?
  11. Offset 0x0BC0 will use the standard ELEVATOR TRIM SET control. What are the ' normal trim commands' that work for this aircraft? You should just ise the controls that work for that aircraft. Create a profile for the JF Bae 146 (check the 'profile specific?' check-box and assign your buttons to the controls that work for that aircraft. Try changing the trim and see what controls are logged - activate logging for Events and keep the console window open and see what is logged when you adjust the trim in the cockpit UI, and then assign to those (again, in a profile). You could also try logging the contents of offset 0x0BC0 (using FSUIPC's offset logging facilities) to see if this value changes (or not) when you do this, and what the values are for the various trim positions. John
  12. FSUIPC's SteeringTiller control blends rudder and tiller operation, with the amount of blending defined by the MaxSteerSpeed ini parameter (and also the RudderBlendLowest ini parameter) - see the Advanced User guide P11 for details. You could try adjusting this MaxSteerSpeed parameter. However, if you do not want any rudder/tiller blending at all, change your assignment to 'Send to FS as normal axis' and use P3Ds steering tiller control, rather than the one provided by FSUIPC that does this blending. John
  13. Ah, sorry - please ignore my post then...
  14. I'm sorry but I cannot support MSFS, only FSUIPC7 with MSFS. I also use the steam version and don't really know the details of an MS store purchased version. I suggest you try the Asobo support forums. John
  15. Are you sure that the event file is in your FSUIPC7 installation folder? Check that - if it is, it should also appear in the [EventFiles] section of your FSUIPC7.ini. Check that (but do not manually add it there -this section is managed by FSUIPC). If you don't know where your installation folder is, use the Open Installation Folder menu option from FSUIPC7's File menu. The events should appear at the top of the control menu drop-downs, preceded by a colon ':'. Note also that there is no need to use event files any more, as all these events can now be handled by presets. Check the MF HubHob resource (https://hubhop.mobiflight.com/) for the AP disconnect for the aircraft you are using. For the FBW A320, it is probably Autopilot_Disconnect_Push which you can assign to as Preset: Autopilot Disconnect Push without the need to use event files. John
  16. Can you attach your FSUIPC4 install.log please. Looks like you are running a steam version - have you installed the latest updates (not the latest beta)? The latest (non-beta) should be: fsx.exe version = 10.0.62615.0 whereas you are using: fsx.exe version = 10.0.62607.0 However, I think you should be ok if your version includes SP1, but you may as well update to the latest (non-beta) version of FSX, if possible. John
  17. Is this the WideClient.exe in the WideFS6 release? If so, that message is strange... There should be a WideClient that is compatible with windows XP (we think!). Pete will take a look and possibly post you a version to try - we cannot verify this here as neither of us have a win XP system anymore. John Later: Pete has amended his previous post with a version for you to try...
  18. Is this a question about FSUIPC? If so, you have posted in the wrong forum (Feel There Airplanes) - please post in the FSUIPC (or FSUIPC7 forum) for FSUIPC support. You also don't say which Honeycomb product - the Alpha yoke or Bravo throttle? For the latter, I have already posted some basic assignements for this controller in this post: John
  19. Click on the order number and that should show you the order details, including your registration details. You should also have received an email with these details to the email address used. John
  20. Please use the attached license file - this contains both an FSUIPC7 and a WIDEFS7 license valid until 30th May. John FSUIPC7.key
  21. You can assign an axis to up to 4 separate controls - that is why there are four controls drop-down menus with check-coxes to activate them. Just activate the second control menu and select RightBrake there. John
  22. I do not know what you mean by FSUIPC6a. The latest installer can always be downloaded from http://www.fsuipc.com and from the Download links -> Updated Modules section in this forum: John
  23. Is this your MSFS Community folder: C:\Users\andre\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community\ ? If so, can you check the FSUIPC WASM manifest file: C:\Users\andre\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community\fsuipc-lvar-module\modules\manifest.json It should look like this: { "dependencies": [], "content_type": "MISC", "title": "FSUIPC7 WASM Event Module", "manufacturer": "John L. Dowson", "creator": "John L. Dowson", "package_version": "0.5.8", "minimum_game_version": "12.13.0", "release_notes": { "neutral": { "LastUpdate": "11/04/2022", "OlderHistory": "" } } } If it doesn't look like that, try downloading 7.3.3 again and re-installing. Maybe I updated this after the initial release - was a while ago now and can't remember... John
  24. This was added in v7.3.0 and is included in the latest offset documentation: John
