Hello everyone!
I use FSUIPC for a long time, this month I finally transferred from FSX to Prepar3D v5 (with a brand new PC, of course) and now I registered to forum because I saw this topic where maybe I can contribute.
I downloaded version 6.0.14c today and tested it with my hardware configuration that includes four Leo Bodnar's input cards: one BBI-32 and three BBI-64s. The 64 has 64 buttons, of course, but BBI-32 is even more interesting: it has 32 physical inputs, but when combined with special switches it represents itself as HID with up to 128 buttons.
I can confirm that FSUIPC 6.0.14c can see all of these buttons as expected. But with this version (downloaded from John’s post published on 30 March) I also have to confirm Dave's report that every button returns its number only when it is pressed. When it is released, FSUIPC says that button 255 is pressed now. It is similar with the switches: when the switch is on, FSUIPC register it’s number as it suppose to. But when I turn the switch off, FSUIPC shows that “button 255 is pressed”.
Then I tried previous version (from John’s post published on 20th March, it’s written there that this version is 6.0.14b, but options window says only 6.0.14) – it works perfectly, there is no “button 255” anymore. I also checked the file in edited first post of the topic – (it declares itself as version 6.0.14 again) – everything is ok too.
Long story short: versions 6.0.14 and 6.0.14b works fine to me, but 6.0.14c again reports button 225 when any button is released.
Maybe I didn’t understand well which file is the latest, but I thought that you would like to know that 6.0.14c also has the reported problem.
I use this opportunity to thank Pete & John for their marvellous tool!
Regards,
János
