  1. good point peter i must have had a brain fade i did this process in the past when i was playing with the throttles but completely forgot about it this time thanx for your help i will give a try and see if it cures my joystick problem .cheers mate most appreciated
  2. Hi Pete yes perhaps i didnt explain correctly , when you say assign the axes in fsuipc i assumed that this is the procedure/.. this is what did i pushed rescan moved the aileron axis and up popped the x axis , and i moved it full range and got a digital readout from fsuipc i then selected "send to fsuipc calibration" then i pushed rescan again and moved the elevator and up popped the y axis in the little box and moved it up and down and got a digital range readout from fsuipc i then selected once again "send to fsuipc calibration" Then i went to fsuipc joystick calibration and calibrated both axes in fsuipc . I assumed that is how the axes get assigned in fsuipc is there some other step that i am not aware of??? that has to be done ???? even after doing this procedure when I disabled the joystick in the FSX settings i get NO movement in FSX from fsuipc calibrated joystick ECEN THOUGH when i go back to fsuipc it is still registering the joystick in the fsuipc joystick calibration . Is there some extra step in fsuipc of assignimg the axes that has to be done.. It is very frustrating as i am following the fsuipc guide as closely as possible and i cannot understand why FSx is mot picking up the my FSIPC calibrated joystick
  3. HI I am building a research based simulator using FSx ( acceleration ) . The problem i am having is that i am having a bit of joystick lag with FSX controlling my joystick, I have a registered up to date version of FSUIPC installed , I have used the rescan method to find the joystick axes and calibrated them using fsuipc calibration successfully . The problem is as soon as i disable the joystick or delete the joystick axes in FSX settings. FSX doesnt doesnt pick up the joystick even though FSUIPC still registers the axes so i end up with no joystick control With the joystick re-enabled in fsx settings and registered on fsupic axes i can tell that FSUIPC and fSX are fighting for control for teh joystick and there is unusual movement and lag when flying the aircraft. it is driving me crazy cos FSUIPC looks like a far better way to calibrate and provides more sensitivity to the joystick controls. Is there some setting i can change in the fsx.cfg or fsuipc.ini ??/ that would help My joystick is a simple potentiometer based copntrol column going through a haagstrom encoder board which provides three basic axes x, y, z(rudder) . and registers as a simple joystock in control panel and FSX. Really need a definitive answer in this one so your help would be greatly appreciated .. BTW i have tried a standard microsft joystick and the same effect occurs so its not the joystick
  4. I have puzzling problem setup 1 -one PC - fs2004 , gpsout-output com2 , mix-w virtual com port 2 and 3 set up , polyview moving map display ( set to receive NMEA on com 3 ) Works brilliantly!!! Setup 2 two pCs - master PC , fs2004, gspout-output com1, client pc , polyview moving map display ( ( set to receive NMEA on com 1 ) a borrowed null modem cable attached between master and client to transfer data works brilliantly !!! Setup 3 two pCs - master PC , fs2004, Widefs(latest version ) , gspout.ini set to port=widefs client pC , wideclient.ini set to port com2, speed 4800 ,mix-w virtual com port 2 and 3 set up , , polyview moving map display ( set to receive NMEA on com 3 ) NO GO ! no Nmea data detected ??? notyhin g wrong with WideFs and wideclient as they do work with other software eg FS commander , AV weather etc so can only think it must be some obscure wideserver.ini or wideclient.ini settings Tried different comports , diff speeds still no luck ??? then got desperate and swapped PC master into clent and client into master pc and reinstalled correct software for each machine .. still no luck !!!! Any ideas is it soem obscuire
