  1. FSUIPC7 steering tiller assign to B787 suddenly doesn't work.

    The logs look ok now. They show a few full -ve tiller deflections and some positive (but only up tp 2/3rds). There are a few rudder axis controls so they must be either from an MSFS assignment or auto-rudder. How was the handling - do you get the same problem? If so, I'm not sure there's much that can be done. Is the handling better using Steering Set or better using FSUIPC's Steering Tiller control? You can switch back to the other control to compare.
    You could also assign your tiller axis to both the rudder and the steering tiller axis (and turn off auto-rudder) to see if that helps.

    When did you notice the change in the steering handling? Was this after (or before) the last MSFS update?

    I'll have a look at the B787 later today to see what works best for me and report back.

    Thanks John, looking forward to a setting that I can copy.

    Not sure what is going on. I start MSFS, reload all the assignment. Start from cold and dark. As soon as I want to steer to the left or right and my joystick reach its deadzone, the B787 just stop. I put a lot of thrust but the aircraft just pushing the nose gear forward.

    I reset and rescan, assign to the steering set, calibrate my joystick, got to steering tiller and redo again. The aircraft just acting like it was before, it will take a few test and trail before it got that nice setting but then all setting gone as I quit and restart msfs.

    I am baffle as to what is happening to this aircraft, when I purchased FSUIPC7, it work like a charm, I just set the setting to steering tiller and I was having fun for a week before all this happened. Damn ASOBO for not being able to fix this.

    Attach is the*ini and log for your information. I lost hope already and will not touch this B787 anymore.

    Hello, sorry for the late reply. Been busy with work. BTW, I notice that when I start MSFS, do I need to reset everything? I ask this because, the tiller doesn't work or load when MSFS start from cold and dark compare to start directly at the runaway, ready for take off (FSUIPC7 however automatic start with MSFS) in the end I have to reset and set back everything.

    Also, if I select from reload all assignment, will it load back the specific profile for specific aircraft that I used at that point of time?

    I hope the log I attach captured all the required info as I'm not a rocket scientist in this. I'm merely just a plug and play user 🙂

    The DontLogThese ini parameter didn't seem to work. Did you add this to the ini after you had started FSUIPC7? Maybe move it to the first line after the section name (although this shouldn't make a difference).
    Can you also calibrate your steering tiller in the profile please - you currently don't have a calibration profile. Click the profile checkbox in the calibration tab and calibrate your steering axis there.
    Then, show me both files again. Check to see if you still have those LIGHT_POTENTIOMETER_SET and FUELSYSTEM_PUMP_SET events logged first - they shouldn't be there when using those DontLogThese options...

    Also, did you check that you didn't have any axis assignments in MSFS? The parameters to your rudder.

    Although not related to your issue, you should also change to the following settings in your [General] section:

        InitialStallTime=100
        NormalStallTime=-2

    The first setting will increase the time allowed for the initial connection and prevent retries (MSFS is quite slow to start!) and the second will instruct FSUIPC7 to only log a stalled connection and not re-connect. You can change this later if you get issues and need to re-connect, but when this is a positive value (and especially 1) this can cause many reconnects if/when your system is overloaded and can cause an MSFS CTD when simconnect runs out of connections.

    Ok. I have some spare time just now and I did what you asked. Also I have done calibrate my the steering axis. So should have it under the profile.

    Also, in the Steering Tiller (direct!) I reset and set back the setting and playing around with the slope. I'm shocked to find out that the B787 is more responsive now when turning left and right (this is a big aircraft so I play around with throttle for taxiing).

    Yes for your question rudder in MSFS. Its default there. When I remove it, I can't control the aircraft when taking off (no rudder).

    Also I have added the line under [General] section.

    Anyway pls take a look and let me know.

    Thank you for being patience with me. I will try again to do what you advising me to do. Once I have the output will upload it here again. I am currently at work and will finish in 9 hours. Will try to do this once I have the time :)

    I have updated to the latest version. Do a fresh Axis Assignments & Calibration and named the profile to Custom B787. In this new install I did not touch any setting for Steering Tiller (direct!) at Joystick Calibration tab. Some how its responsive now. I will give it a go again and update.

    There is no change in the new version w.r.t your issue, so it won't. However, check those assignemnts that I mentioned, especially the delta - correct that and try again.
    Probably a good idea to re-calibrate your steering tiller axis once you've changed the delta. Your calibration for this axis in your profile looks way different than the general calibration for this axis:
        SteeringTiller=-12873,2560,6144,11903
    vs
       SteeringTiller=-32384,-512,7534,32648
    Note the differences in the max/min. Your B787 calibration is only using a third of your axis range....maybe that, together with the delta, is your problem?

     

    This only added later after the problem start happening and I forgot to removed.

    I'm starting to suspect my joystick now. Because every time I twist to left or right the numbering in In/Out did not stay constant. Keep changing to different value 😅 

    Attach is the files as requested.

    Can you activate FSUIPC logging for Axes Controls and Events, produce a short(-ish) log file showing your problem (i.e. load your aircraft and taxi showing your issues, then close MFS/FSUIPC) and then attach that, together with your FSUIPC7.ini file and I will take a look.

    Something must have changed if it was working and now doesn't. Do you have any idea what could have changed?

    Your FSUIPC7.ini file is the one I need to see your assignments, not screenshots.

    Hi John/Pete,

    Omg thank you for your quick response. I have done as instructed but not sure if its correct or not. Attach is the two files.

    I can't remember much what I did as I'm not a techie guy who knows how to tweak/edit files. All I can remember is that I install 3rd party liveries for my B787 (Malaysia Airlines Liveries) and before I used FSUIPC7. I already have and install FS-ATC-Chatter. That's about it.

    Greetings fellow flight sims,

    Name Vecmin, recently I purchased FSUIPC7 from SimMarket on the 1/24/2021 after I was told that it can solved B787 current steering issue while taxiing using rudder axis whereby it can't make a tight turn if player twist the joystick full to the right or left. If player do a tight cornering by twist the joystick full to the left or to the right, the B787 just stop moving and player need to give a 100% full thrust for it to move again.

    However when using FSUIPC7 and assign this to a steering tiller, all of the above issue gone. The B787 can do a tight cornering without it stuck/stop.

    Only recently this has stop functioning (a week now). No matter what I do, when the B787 do that tight cornering (where I have to twist my joystick full to the left or right) the B787 will stop/stuck like it was before I use FSUIPC steering tiller.

    I post similar issue at MSFS 2020 official forum and there's a couple of great guys who was very patience in helping me to get this problem solved. We tried a couple of troubleshooting like  assigning numbers directly to the Steering Tiller setting in Joystick calibration but the B787 still not responding. It will stop and stuck when I twist my rudder fully to the left or right.

     I can't attach screenshot of the  FSUIPC7 Axes Assignment that I used for the Steering tiller but maybe I can just described it here:

    When I twist my joystick to the left and right, the reading for the In=[16383/-16384].

    When I twitst my joystick  to the left or right, the reading for Out=[12799/-11443][14463/-13393][14719/-14563]. The number does not maintain it will keep changing when I release to center back the joystick. The reading also will be shown something like this [2048][-2211][0] 

    As for Delta sometime the reading will be [5632][128][526]

    What ever the number shown there now, when I click ok (I create profile for B787) when I near a corner slow down, pressing the break and make a turn, when my joystick reach the dead zone (where I turn all the way to the left or right) the B787 will stop and stuck dead on the ground won't move until I put full thrust 100% to push it forward.

    Can someone help me out? Thanks.

     

    P/s: this is the link to the post that I made in MSFS 2020 official forum for 3 party apps.
