[Device Number Issue]

All seems well, now. Sorry for the bother! Thanks!

[Device Number Issue]

I tried again after turning letters back on. It is now showing "C" instead of "D" and it appears to be working now. I'll try a few more things to make sure it's good. I don't think I tried letters again after I removed devices, etc.

Done! Please see attached.

[Device Number Issue]

I upgraded to P3Dv5.1 & FSUIPC6 after uninstalling all previous P3Dv4 versions & addons. After clean install I tried to assign controls in FSUIPC, but my throttle device number was different than P3D and would not accept commands (device 1 in P3D & device 3 in FSUIPC). I noticed the same behavior in the Maddogx Load Manager (LM) with it's custom control options. In the LM if I manually changed the device number to match P3D it would work in the sim, however I can't see where I can do that in FSUIPC6. I've tried unplugging all controllers, restarting, and removing in the device manager. I noticed the device numbers in the registry matched the INI file so I manually changed the device numbers in the registry to match P3D: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaProperties\PrivateProperties\DirectInput. I tried removing the joynames from the INI file and even changing those numbers. No matter what I do the FSUIPC INI & LOG files always assign the wrong numbers. I tried autoassign letters, but it assigned "D" to the throttle, which would correspond to 3 and it didn't work. 

 

Where is FSUIPC getting the device number from in the registry? Is there a way to force FSUIPC to use a specific device number?

 

Just prior to upgrading I had one of my TM MFDs go bad. Not sure if this is contributing to the issue. To be sure I unplugged and removed both MFD from device manager and deleted the associated registry entries in directinput & OEM.
