FSUIPC WASM module + client-side API + lvar/hvar discussion topic
John Dowson replied to John Dowson's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
You can only access hvarsfrom the new lvar menu at the moment (Activate Hvar...). As well as the new controls above (which are still to be implemented), I also need to add lua/macro functions for hvars.... -
FSUIPC WASM module + client-side API + lvar/hvar discussion topic
John Dowson replied to John Dowson's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
Please find attached v7.1.0d of FSUIPC7 that has lvar support via macros and lua scripts. (i.e. as in FSUIPC5/6). This is an early 'pre-release' for testing. I am planning on updating the installer (to add the WASM) + the documentation this week, and when that is done I will release as a beta. To use, you must have the FSUIPC WASM module installed. When FSUIPC7 is started, if the WASM is detected there will be a new LVAR menu under the Add-ons menu. To activate lvar functionality, you need to Enable through this menu (you only need to do this once!). Once I have updated the installer + documentation (and released officially as a beta), I am planning in adding the following new FSUIPC controls to allow direct assignments to lvars/hvars: L:var Set L:var Toggle L:var Increment L:var Decrement H:var Activate Execute Calc. Code FSUIPC7.exe John -

Steam MSFS control issue
John Dowson replied to Jon Rodd's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
So you are using MSFS, not FSX? I will update the title of your post.... The first think to do is to check your assignments in MSFS. If assigning in FSUIPC, make sure you create an empty profile for each of your controllers (just create a new profile for each, which, by default, will be empty). If you don't have any assignments in MSFS, please show me your FSUIPC7.ini file and an FSUIPC7.log file and I'll take a look. -
FSUIPC WASM module + client-side API + lvar/hvar discussion topic
John Dowson replied to John Dowson's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
There was an error in this function, corrected now. Also, the dll posted on the 7th is not build against the latest WAPI. Please try the attached:FSUIPC_WAPID.dllFSUIPC_WAPID.lib FSUIPC_WAPI.h You may get better results with those, but I don't think its fully functional but I'm not sure why.. Thats interesting...even the list functions? -

FSUIPC WASM module + client-side API + lvar/hvar discussion topic
John Dowson replied to John Dowson's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
Você sequestrou um tópico que não está relacionado ao seu problema. Please see the provided documentation - start with the Installing and Registering FSUIPC, then check the User Guide. I'm sorry, but they are only available in English. If you have any issues, please check the forums first (as ALL issues with installing and registering have been reported before), and if you still have problems, then post (either in a topic that reports the same issue or start a new topic). In Portugese (from google): -
This is normal for prop aircraft... Sounds like the rudder is far too sensitive. Could you show me your latest FSUIPC7.ini file please. Also a log file with axes controls logged showing your issue would also be useful.

Reverse Axis Assignments
John Dowson replied to snedstar's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
As well as what Pete has said, maybe the axis doesn't need reversing - did you try with the Rev checkbox unchecked? Or are you saying there is no difference to the axis output values regardless of that setting? -
New to FSUIPC I have some questions prior to purchase
John Dowson replied to able724's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
So do I! I do provide temporary/time-limited licenses for you to try before you buy...but too late now! Some controls work on some aircraft and not on others, so you need to try them, You can use 'profiles' to have different assgnments to different aircraft. One way to determine what controls are used is to activate logging for events (and also open the log console). If you then click on the UI element you want to control, you should see the event (and parameter) that it is using. You can then try assigning to that. However, be aware that not all events logged from the UI will work when sent via Simconnect (i.e. from FSUIPC). There are various posts both on the FSUIPC (MSFS) forums and in the Asobo forums There is a list of all MSFS provided controls created at run-time, called Controls List for MSFS Build 999.pdf, located in your FSUIPC documents folder. FSUIPC added controls are documented in the FSUIPC User Guide. I just don't have the time or resources for that. Its just me (although Pete helps out when he can), and I have little enough time for development as it is after covering support issues posted on the forum (as well as on the Asobo forums and avsim). For the time being at least, its just easier for me to keep requests in one place, the support forums. John -
Have you tried assigning to that event/parameter? Also maybe try the stable or vanilla version - I have had reports of different things working in different versions of the FBW mods. Maybe also check for lvars as these will be available shortly (via lua or macros),

Reinstalling FSUIPC 6 for Prepar3d
John Dowson replied to Florencio Pascual's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
Make sure they are exactly as specified in your purchase email. But if you have previously registered and have a key file, there is no need to re-register. If you don't have your old key file, you can also create it manually. Details on how to do this are in this post: -

FSUIPC WASM module + client-side API + lvar/hvar discussion topic
John Dowson replied to John Dowson's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
Ok - same problem as before, I forgot to add add the extra lines to receive the extra lvar name CDAs. Corrected in this version: FSUIPC-WASMv0.4.9.zip -
Which aircraft are you using? Toggle master battery has been reported as working for some aircraft (Baron, Longitude). The ELECTRICAL MASTER BATTERY offset at 0x281C is documented as 'Currently not working for the 747-8: always shows on. Can switch off, but not back on', but at offset 0x3102 it is documented as working for read & write - but it has the same issues as 0x281C.

FSUIPC WASM module + client-side API + lvar/hvar discussion topic
John Dowson replied to John Dowson's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
But 2044 is the maximum. Your CRJ has 1738, and you can see/access/update them. no? Why to you expect there to be more than are available? Is it working ok for you with 1738 lvars? Why do you expect to see more? -
Forget about lvars/hvars for now - they are not yet accessible via FSUIPC. But they certainly shouldn't be needed for master battery. Search for existing topics on this please, I'm sure there are already posts on this... and maybe check the offset documentation spreadsheet. Also, please remember, if using LINDA and have issues you need to go to the LINDA forums. I haven't looked at your files as I beliebe @jaxx identified your problem. But if you still have issues, please post again, and also attach your latest files.

Ah, sorry, probably is in a restricted or beta forum.... But we are going off-topic here....this is a discussion topic for the WASM! Please raise another topic for other issues. -
Can you please also show me your FSUIPC7.ini file please

FSUIPC weather setting for P3Dv5
John Dowson replied to yindengxie's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
First, you posted in the FAQ section, where it explicitly states NOT for Support Requests. I have moved your post to the main support forum. You can use the offset area starting at B000, which uses METAR weather strings. However, you may find it easier to use a 3rd party weather engine to control weather, either free or payware.
