Lua scripts and the add-on.xml method
John Dowson replied to ark1320's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
It is recommended to install FSUIPC6 outside of the add-on.xml folder. You can even select your old Modules folder if thats where you want to keep everything, and you wouldn't have to change anything, except for renaming your FSUIPC5.ini file to FSUIPC6.ini. Please see the Installation and Registration guide. -
First, you posted in the announcements sub-forum. Please post all support requests in the main forum - I have moved your post for you. As you were in the Announcements forum, did you not see this post:

Problem with FSUIPC upgrade 5.155 to 5.156
John Dowson replied to Alje Bakker's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
Me too! Seems to be a problem with the version numbers in the previous build, but they look ok to me. I'll investigate sometime but this will be low priority - got a lot of things on at the moment! Cheers, John -
Problem with FSUIPC upgrade 5.155 to 5.156
John Dowson replied to Alje Bakker's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
Yes, very strange. Sorry about that - I will look into it. For the time being, you can manually delete the existing FSUIPC5.DLL (from your Modules folder) and then re-run the installer. John -
Hi Matt, sorry, just checked you inis. They are empty apart from one assignment. Plugging and unplugging devices can change joystick ids. To get over this problem, there is a facility called 'JoyLetters',. See the user guide. Try the following: - remove your single button assignment (you can add this back later via the UI): 1=R0,0,K65,8 - enable JoyLetters by changing the AutoAssignLetters in the [JoyNames] section to: AutoAssignLetters=Yes Then restart the sim and try assigning again. John P.S. That won't solve the missing Yoke - will need to see the files mentioned in my previous post.

can't register widefs6
John Dowson replied to jean-luc's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
Request a refund from SimMarket. I'm sure Pete will authorise a refund for you. -
can't register widefs6
John Dowson replied to jean-luc's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
WideFS6 does not work with FSUIPC6. You need WideFS7. Did you not read the REQUIREMENTS section for WideFS6: REQUIREMENTS FS2000 FS2002 FS2004 FSUIPC3 Note: If both WideFS6 and FSUIPC3 are registered, both registrations must use the same user name. WideFS6 IS NOT FOR FSX NO REFUNDS GIVEN! -
Yes. Please see the installation and registration guide for FSUIPC6. It contains details of options for using P3Dv4/v5 together with FSUIPC6 (in one or two distinct installations) and how to migrate your FSUIPC5 settings. Licenses are available from SimMarket. For FSUIPC5 license holders, there is a substantial reduction (given automatically on check-out) or free if FSUIPC5 was recently purchased. Please see the following post (in Announcements sub-forum): Cheers, John

WideFs + pmdg ngx
John Dowson replied to Lourival Junior's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
First, you posted in a sub-forum. Please always post support requests in the main support forum, not a sub-forum. WideFS is not compatible (or incompatible) with any aircraft - the question is redundant. WideFS7 is compatible with FSUIPC6. WideFS is used to allow programs that connect to FSUIPC to do this over a network, on a client PC. Please see the documentation. -
Gear Toggle activating on its own
John Dowson replied to sarcas30's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
First, you posted in the wrong place - please post all support requests here in the main support forum. You posted in the 'User Contributions' sub-forum. I have moved your post for you. Also please always give a relevant title - 'FSUIPC Modules' doesn't reflect your problem. I have also updated this for you. I see Pete has just replied... Also note that there is also a recent post with a similar problem (although using a different version of FSUIPC): To resolve your problem, you will need to follow the same steps to determine what is causing your issue.- 3 replies

Every day I need to reconfigure FSUIPC.
John Dowson replied to NNi2020's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
There have been minimal changes in recent releases (check the changes/history log), and certainly none that have anything to do with your problem. No, not possible, sorry. Just check www.fsuipc.com every now and then, or at least before posting for support so that you know you are on the latest release. FYI, 6.0.5 was released yesterday. There have been a few patch releases recently to sort out some teething problems with FSUIPC6, but hopefully this will be the last release for a while - we have other things we need to start looking into 😉 ! -
FSUIPC 4 to FSUIPC 6
John Dowson replied to Cherokee83's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
Yes - FSUIPC4 and FSUIPC5 licenses are not valid for FSUIPC6. There is a special upgrade price for FSUIPC6 from FSUIPC5, but not for FSUIPC4. -
Switch Panel recommendation
John Dowson replied to cruzer's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
You are probably better off asking for recommendations over on avsim.com -
no funciona el fsuipc 6 en P3dv4
John Dowson replied to Mario69's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
No hay una version de FSUIPC que funciona con P3Dv4.0. Dime tu numero del pedido. -
no funciona el fsuipc 6 en P3dv4
John Dowson replied to Mario69's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
If you have a license for 4.0, it is free to update to 4.5. If you do not have a license and are using an illegal copy, I cannot help you further. -
For FSUIPC6, the documentation is installed in a folder called FSUIPC6, located underneath your windows Documents folder. For other versions of FSUIPC, the documentation is installed in a folder called FSUIPC Documents, under the Modules folder (under your sim installation folder) where FSUIPC is installed.

no funciona el fsuipc 6 en P3dv4
John Dowson replied to Mario69's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
I need to see your FSUIPC6.log file (from your installation directory), not the installation log. What version of P3D are you using? FSUIPC v6.0.4 is compatible with P3Dv4.1 and later. FSUIPCv6.0.5 has just been released, and this is compatible with P3Dv4.3 and later. If you are on an earlier version of P3D, you should update (its free, so why not!). You should really upgrade to the latest P3Dv4.5 HF. John -
FSUIPC and AI Separation
John Dowson replied to UniformAlpha2014's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
Its far easier for me if you attach your log rather than posting pictures! Could it be that something (AI separation?) is trying to move an AI aircraft that has already been removed/deleted? Difficult to tell without the full log. -
Switch Panel recommendation
John Dowson replied to cruzer's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
No recommendations, but any device recognised by windows as a hid device should work with FSUIPC. The Saitek switch panel does not work with FSUIPC as its not a HID device. For this (commonly used) switch panel, there is an additional freeware driver (SPAD) or payware version (SPAD.next) that can be used. -
FSUIPC5 is for P3Dv4 only. For FSX, you need FSUIPC4. For the PMDG 747, there is a dedicated offset area. Please see the PMDG documentation provided with FSUIPC (all versions).
