  1. The license/key file previously included expired yesterday. The latest installer extends the beta license until 8th November.
  2. The image you posted shows you are using an unregistered version of FSUIPC7 (no Assignments menu entry). Did you install the the key file? Re-run the installer and make sure that you select to install the provided key file, and skip registration. John
  3. You posted in the wrong forum - I have moved your post. No you haven' t as it currently not for sale. To use WideFS with FSUIPC7-beta, you have to use the instructions provided in the beta release note. Your question has also been asked before (yesterday) - please check the forum for similar questions before posting. See
  4. Can you attach your .log and .ini files and I'll take a look. It you have upgraded to windows 10 it is more than likely that you joysticjk ids and/or GUIDs have changed. Should be easy to manually update them, especially if you are using the "JoyLetters" facility.
  5. That will be the last release with a key file included, so wasn't worth updating the manual. The same text should have been in the provided README.txt file, but looks like I prematurely removed it.
  6. You cannot currently use the installer to validate your widefs license as the time-limited FSUIPC7 license cant be validated. You have to follow the instructions in the announcement while still in beta:
  7. Got it working now, after a few attempts. Seems like the cloud syncing was being turned on again and replacing the deleted files, causing the CTD. Looks like the files have now gone from the cloud now so no CTD. The MSFS controllers page shows my devices, but now with no profile assigned at all. My keyboard now also has no profile, and I only have the 'DEFAULT' profile for the mouse. And clicking on any device still shows the mouse assignments!
  8. I found them under ...\Steam\userdata\<my steam id>\241100\remote following the advice in this post: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/ctd-after-latest-update-update-5/309576/260. I also disabled Steam Cloud synchronisation, as also advised in that post. However, this does not work for me and I still get a CTD if I have my devices connected or when I connect my devices.
  9. I'm getting a CTD when starting with my devices connected, and also when re-connecting them. I only have "empty" "input profiles", except for keyboard and mouse. This is interesting. Could you let me know the location of these (and if you are using Steam or MS Store version) and I'll see if this works for me. Thanks, John
  10. Hi Achoriham, ok, was just checking how you were reloading, as there are currently know issues with FLT files saved via SimConnect (i.e. autosave files). I just checked a few times saving/loading flights via MSFS, and haven't experienced any issues. Can you download the latest release and try again please, just to make sure that you are up-to-date. Then, if you still have the issue, can you try disconnecting and re-connecting to see if that helps. You could also try activating axes logging and moving your controls to see if these are being logged/sent.
  11. First, you posted in the FAQ sub-forum, where it explicitly states 'Answers to Frequently Asked Questions.. NOT for support requests.'. I have moved your post to the FSUIPC7 as you are asking about FS2020 (or MSFS). FSUIPC7 has an optional add-on WebSocket server component, integrated and included in the installer, provided by Paul Henty, which uses his client dll for .net to communicate to FSUIPC. Details can be found here: http://fsuipcwebsockets.paulhenty.com/ This component will also work with other versions of FSUIPC and so with other sims (P3D, FSX, FSX-SE).
  12. The log is a continuation log and shows nothing. Please send me a full log, do not start a new one. You also seem to be getting a lot of FUEL SELECTOR events for whatever aircraft you loaded. These aren't of interest - you can add this line to the [General] section of your FSUIPC7.ini to prevent these being logged: DontLogThese=65962,66523 Press some keys when FSUIPC7 has the focus first, then switch focus to MSFS and press some other keys. Try standard letters initially, to see if you are getting anything at all.
  13. Hi Dave, no, not seen anything as of yet from Asobo regarding the weather, other than what has been said previously (they're looking into it). John
  14. Different aircraft seem to continually log various events like this. This used to be a problem with add-on aircraft in P3D, where unused events are re-purposed for internal use. With MSFS, they seem to do this with many of the included aircraft. Those events are being used, but I do not know what the aircraft is using them for! If you don't want to see such events, you can use the DontLogThese ini parameter (in the [General] section) - please see the Advanced User guide for details. I think I need to allow this parameter to also be profile specific. I'll look into this. Well, that's because you can't see the events! Its not FSUIPC that's sending these, its only logging them. John
  15. Can you go to Log -> Custom, and enter x400. Then generate a short log file where you reload and have your issue. Also try manually disconnecting and re-connecting after the reload. Attach you logs and I'll take a look when I have time, but even if there is an issue it is very minor with a simple workaround (ie. restarting FSUIPC7). John Later: Ah, sorry - misread your post. The problem is now with reloading a flight, not when you resync. What do you mean by 'reloading a flight' - how are you doing this?
  16. You can use the offset directly. as Thomas has suggested, or you can use the Parking Brakes control, and then add an offset condition for offset 0x0BC8. Offset conditions are described in the Advanced User guide. John
  17. I've just checked these and they should be fine. Are these assignments working for you when MSFS has the focus? They should work when both MSFS has the focus, and when FSUIPC7 has the focus (but not when neither have the focus). If not, enable logging for Buttons & Keys, then press those keys when MSFS has the focus and send me the log and I'll take a look. John
  18. Ok Al, I'll keep in on my 'todo' list and let you know when I get a chance to look at this in detail. John
  19. There are various issues with receiving keys via SimConnect when MSFS has the focus. Please check the MSFS SDK documentation if you want to see what keys are working (although even in this, the numpad keys don't work!). Looking at your assignments, the ones you have to normal keys (D, E, Z, Q, T) should work - have you tried these when MSFS has the focus? For numpad keys, MSFS only sends these when numlock is off (when it should send them when numlock is on). Please see this thread for this: I'm not sure why your F1-F7 aren't working - these should be ok according to the documentation. I'll take a look (when time permits), and look into it or raise with Asobo if this is an issue with MSFS. FYI, this is the current MSFS documentation on key inputs, upon which FSUIPC7 relies to receive these from MSFS:
  20. But what exactly is your issue? If you can explain it rather than saying "FSUIPC works only when he has the focus" then maybe I can help. What exactly are you trying to do/achieve? No, this is not possible and if it was it would cause many issues!
  21. Sorry, what do you mean? FSUIPC "works" without focus. The only functionality that may be different when FSUIPC7 has focus compared to when MSFS has focus is in the key assignments area, and this is due to lack of support (in the MFS SDK) for various keys, and a bug in the numpad keys where they are only sent when numlock is off (when it should be when numlock is on). If thats your issue, then there are already various support requests on this issue (and this has been reported to Asobo). For all other functionality, the focus is not important. Why do you think it is? What is your actual issue? John
  22. Thinking about this further, I'm not sure if this is needed or helpful as it only applies when on the ground (if you were thinking that this could be used for a 2nd calibration when flying at slow speeds). Also, the MaxSteerSpeed is already configurable for different profiles, and you can probably achieve the calibration you require by playing around with this parameter - from the Advanced User Guide: Given this, do you still think that this would be a useful addition?
  23. @HeLord You have posted in a topic (and forum) for FSUIPC7 for MSFS, not for FSUIPC6 and P3Dv5. Can you please post in the main forum for FSUIPC6 support, and attach your FSUIPC6.ini and .log files please. I will delete your post in this topic shortly. John Later: may also be worth reading this (even though its a bit old nbow): https://forums.flightsimlabs.com/index.php?/topic/8145-tuning-the-brakes/ If I understand the gist of that discussion, it seems that FSUIPC calibration doesn't play well with the FSLabs for toe brakes, and you should try 'direct to FS' and calibrate yuor brakes in the FSLabs config files....It may be worth asking over on the FSLabs forums.
  24. Don't the active/standby frequencies swap in the offsets when you do a Com Stnby Radio Swap? What do you see in the BCD offset 0x034E for COM1 /VHF1 active frequency? This is a well used offset and I doubt very much that there is an issue with this in FSUIPC, so I think it must be due to either your PMDG or mobiflight config, neither of which I am familiar with unfortunately. I know PMDG like to do there own thing, but if the COM2 offsets and the COM1 standby are all ok, it is surprising that the COM! active is faulty. I did read somewhere that the comms can be disabled in the FMC when using PMDG - maybe you can check if you have SIM COMMS DISABLED in the FMC? Not sure if this is relevant: https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/460188-activate-atc/ John
  25. @Terry Kulp Sorry, but I have no idea what you are talking about or asking. FSUIPC does not read or write "spreadsheets". There is a spreadsheet provided, which is a temporary document giving the status of the FSUIPC offsets for MSFS, in lieu of the FSUIPC offset document being updated for this FS. Please also note that you have posted in a thread that has been dead for over 17 years! And if you have questions relating to FSUIPC7-beta/MSFS, then you should use the specific sub-forum for that. John
