Dear John, I prefer giving up with FSUIPC. I just bought it because I had a diconnection problem with my joystick and I miraculously found a very easy solution to solve it yesterday. Your product is really exhaustive which is good for someone that wants to set a full of details but I really think that it's too much complicated for a basic use. Anyway, thanks a lot for your help and patience. Rgds

"but you do not evenseem to be reading mu comments. Take your hat/panning assignments. You ay you assigned this as an axis but that is obviously not true" On the contrary, it seems to me that you don't even read my comments. I never wrote it was assigned as an axis on the files I sent you. I wrote I did it afterwards and that the result is a situation getting worse. After the modification I made according to your demand the lag is longer... Do you know why ? Thanks

I read your 60 pages manual and I will try once again to follow your advise but I believe you should advise your potential customer that high computer skills are required if you want it to work properly. It seems that you say everything is my fault. But how do you explain that yesterday evening everything was working fine and today morning it's a real mess ? Why all my rudders where right yesterday and not assigned today ? I tried A320, P40, 787, 777 and all were fine ! For the Connie : I didn't put any specific setting on him so why those strange setting now ? Best regards

Dear john, My FSX controller is desactivated. What is "ids" ? I managed this time to enclose the files ini & log you ask. It seems that the changes I made created 3 new log files : FSUIPC4.1.log than 4.2 and 4.3. Is it normal ? Concerning the hat, I used the axes assignment panel for it and... it's getting worse : 3 to 4s lag instead of 2 to 3 ! Thanks for your analysis. FSUIPC4.ini FSUIPC4.log

Dear John, Things are unfortunately getting worse today... My Baron hasn't got any more rudder, my Constellation, Concorde have a full power at half throttle (at 50% the power is full) and no more rudder also, my A320 doesn't accelerate before 50%... and so on !! This time, it's a total mess with all the planes I tried and I'm really fed up with this ! How could settings that asked me days to correct could, the day after, end to a total mess ? I bought FSUIPC to solve a problem of HOTAS disconnection and the result is that I always have problems with it ! What is the new set of problems due to according to you ? Thank you. Rgds

Dear John, I made all the changes you advised me and... it works :-). With your help, I understood what I did wrong : I didn't assigned controls on FSUIPC whereas I thought I had. Once modified, the REV box on Joystick calibration does is job. In fact, I've been led into error by a video tutorial from a simmer saying the FSUIPC hat was really slower than the FSX one and that it was better to keep just this hat on the FSX commands instead of FSUIPC. But, in fact, this prevented activation of FSUIPC other commands. Now it's fine for my Aerosoft A320 birds. I just have a last question : despite putting in the wrong direction, the simmer was right concerning the hat (pan view) button, it's really slower via FSUIPC. With "Control to repeat while held" it moves first quickly to the first "notch" but then there's a lag of 2 or 3 s before moving once again and this is really not pleasant and dangerous for the passengers 🙂 I didn't managed to find a similar issue on the forums. Did you know about that and do you think there's a solution ? Once again, thanks a lot for your professionnal help and have a good evening and start week. Rgds

Whaohh, at the end of our discussions I will have become a computer scientist 🙂 Well, I will try to apply all your advise and hope I will solve my problem. I'll keep you posted. Anyhow, thanks for your prompt replies and the time you take on issues that are not seay to deal with via email. Have a good evening.

Perhaps a translation issue : in French Ko is kilo Octets which seems to be same once translated but we don't use Kb for files weight. Anyway I send you then a copy/paste of the code lines I obtained following your advise. Could you have a look please ? Thanks a lot.

Dear John, Sorry for the forum error and the time I took to answer you. No way to send you anything, the site tells me :1 file would exceed the total allowed size of 20kB I know what is a Ko but not a kB. if I can't send you a base word it's gonna be difficult... Sorry but once again, thanks for your help

Dear John, I tried both : Direct to FSUIPC calibration and normal but in both cases when I calibrate the joystick "REV" checked or not, it doesn't change anything. I bought only a few month ago but I have FSUIPC4 and not 5. When you talk about axes assignment, do you talk about the 2 lines following [Axes] in the ini file or is it the 3 axis line : aileron, elevator, rudder + throttle at the end of the file ? I tried to add: ,*-1 or ",*-1" in both cases and once again no result... Do you have any other advise ?

Dear FSUIPC team, I own FSX acceleration boxed and registered FSUIPC. My controls are inverted with Aerosoft A320 X Extended. I tried all the proposals I found on the web, read an reread your tutorials and forum, watched many video tutos but no way : the axis stay inverted. Do you have any idea of what it could come from please ? Thanks a lot and have a good day. Rgds.
