What is 'dx'? The 'ctrl' key only augments additional keypresses, same as the shift, alt and cmd/wnd key. So FSUIPC expects another keypress with the 'ctrl'. It cannot be used/assigned on its own. John

That is the only version of FSUIPC5 available. There are various SDKs available which are free for personal use. Check the Download Links -> Useful Additional Programs section. John

Glad its now working for you. 127 is the limit for macro files. The general idea with macros is to try and have only a few macro files per aircraft, split by functional groups. Macro files can hold multiple macros, with a maximum of 2000 numbered parameters per macro file. You should try merging your macros into fewer files before using them for assignments.

Yes, you need a registered version to use the lua interface. John

Hi Jason, FSUIPC should be installed on your sim/P3D system only, and WideClient on the client pcs. Anyway, seems like you have it sorted now. Also, just fyi, WideFS is WideClient + WideServer. WideServer used to be a separate program, but it is now part of FSUIPC since FSUIPC5. Cheers, John

Hi Mustafa, so something is sending a 'decrease flaps command', but I'm not sure if thats related to your issue if you are seeing 5/full. You do have a button on your yoke assigned to this. It would be helpful to see the whole log (with appropriate activations) to try to determine where that originates (ie from your button assignment or not). As to the other events, many add-on aircraft re-purpose P3D events for their own use, so they may be internal to your PMDG add-on. These are generally 'noise' in the log and can be excluded using he 'DontLogThese' parameter (see bottom of page 13 onwards in Advanced User Manual). John

Hi Jason, re-installing the scenery should not affect FSUIPC, and the latest FSUIPC version should be ok with all P3D versions from 4.1 onwards. Is that the full install log ? Seems to be cut short, unless it can't find your P3D installation. If thats your full install log, then it seems that P3d isn't installed correctly. Try re-installing the client only, then re-install FSUIPC and attach the log here. Cheers, John

Hi Jason, if fsuipc isn't in the 'Add-ons' menu, it isn't running, If it isn't running, WideClient can't connect. You need to determine why FSUIPC is not running. Try downloading and running the latest installer. This should re-install FSUIPC and leave any settings you have. Cheers, John

If thats the ini file now, then you have reset, no? There are no assignments there (apart from a few macro assignments to buttons). Change AutoAssignLetters=No to AutoAssignLetters=Yes or manually assign. As I said, please review the user manual to understand this. I will be making this a default value in a future release as its quite a common problem. The only advantage of 'No' is that it allows the user to assign the letters, which may have a relevant meaning (e.g. 'T' for throttle' 'R' for rudder, etc). For the people who don't manually edit the ini file, this is not relevant. John

Also, previously 10 macros, now 3? What are you actually doing? I think maybe you need to reset (i.e. start from scratch), and re-assign. If you do this, please activate Joy Letters before you do so (or after, before you disconnect your usb devices!). And with macros, please remove references to them in your assignments before you remove the macro file. John

I still need to see the entire ini. You seem to have a lot of devices, and if you are unplugging and re-plugging them in a lot, their ids will change. You really need to use the 'Joy Letters' (or JoyNames) facility if you are doing this (see p21 in the User Guide). It is possible to recoup your current settings, but you would need to identify which device is which from your ini settings, which may prove difficult with so many devices. If you can do this, you can then manually force the id change by updating the ids in the ini file. You also have a lot of assignments to unidentified macros. Where are these from? If not needed, you should delete all of these (i.e. those assigned to '<unknown macro>'). The different log files also show you have different devices connected when you are posting these. It is very difficult for me to determine anything if your configuration is changing all the time. Can you please keep the same config while we try and sort out your problems. John

Can you also attach your Joyscan.csv file as well please (to check the device scan), also in the Modules folder.

In your previous log, you also have many joystick ids acquired for use, but in the newer one only 2: Are you unplugging devices/hubs? Your ini file only shows one device: but no assignments to that device in the fragment posted. If its too large to attach, compress/zip first and then attach. The extract you posted shows at least 118 macro files, and a lot of assignments to unknown macros...can you also show me the contents of your Modules folder? The macro files will be maintained if they are assigned - why do you have so many assignments to unknown macro files? John

You also have this error which may need to be addressed: ***ERROR: Too many Macro files (max is 127), "anteng1" is omitted John

No - I still need your ini file, its in the same location as the others. And please do not post your key file, containing your registration details. I have removed it.

Would this be for read or read/write? I can see that 05B0 was duplicated at 83BC (read only), so maybe I could use that offset.

Hi Luke, I currently don't have any visibility of what was at that offset, and it is currently used/assigned internally. I'll talk to Pete next week when he's back to get more details, but I don't see a problem if the info is available from SimConnect (or the PDK), but it may have to be at a different offset. I'll get back to you. Cheers, John

The log file is in the same folder as your ini file.You should activate logging of 'Axis controls' as well, as you have assignments to AXIS_FLAPS_SET.

Can you post your FSUIPC5.ini and .log files from your Modules folder please. Your joystick/device ids may have changed, so FSUIPC will not find your assignments/calibration for that device if you have not used the 'Joy Letters' facility. John

PFC's test program could be using direct USB decoding not available to the generic Windows drivers. You could try the HidScanner to see what that that sees/reports. Its available from Download Links -> Useful additional programs section. But I think you'd be better off asking on the FDS or PFC forums/support - or maybe over on avsim.

Is the device recognised by windows as a joystick device? If so, it should be recognised by FSUIPC. Can you see the device in the FSUIPC assignment or calibration tab? If so, can you see any movement registered? If you disconnect the working rudder pedals, and connect the "non-working" set only, does this make a difference? Maybe you can post your ini and log files, but it sounds like its more of a question for PFC support. Cheers, John

FSUIPC key mappings are visible from the 'Key Presses' tab, where you can review and delete your settings, or program new ones. Check the User Guide from p28. Regards, John

Hi. Active Skye ambient turbulence at aircraft is at offset 8638, and precipitation at 8640. From the offsets documentation, ActiveSky offsets are: 8638 4 ActiveSky needed: Ambient turbulence at aircraft (0-1000), 32- bit float 863C 4 ActiveSky needed: Exported ambient visibility (metres), 32-bit float (-ve if not supported) 8640 41 ActiveSky needed: Exported precipitation type (0 none, 1 rain, 2 snow, 3 hail), 8-bit integer (Byte) 8641 41 ActiveSky needed: Exported precipitation rate (0-4), 8-bit integer (Byte) 8642 41 ActiveSky needed: In cloud flag (non-zero if aircraft is in cloud), Byte ** the byte offsets (8640, 8641, 8642) are 1 byte not 4 (obviously!) - I'll correct the documentation for this [I did strikethrough the incorrect '4' size above, but the strikethrough is not so obvious on that number!] ** Cheers, John

Yes, thats the idea. However, seems strange that the 'PMDG_737NGX_Event_IDS' document (?) seems to specify this event id as 70316. What is the control with event id 70320 in that document? It may be worth clarifying this discrepancy on the PMDG forums, but I would go with the header values rather than the documentation in this case. Cheers, John

Hi Reinhard, did you check the 'Offset Mapping for PMDG 777x' document? All offsets specific to the PMDG Boeing 777 are documented there, with 6 offsets for the CDU. Regards, John
