Copy the Modules folder, complete, from the one installation to the other. Pete

I use RAAS Pro and it seems to handle all that automatically. If it isn't working for you I suggest you check with their support. Regards Pete

If you just want to set full reverse or idle you'd need to assign to ThrottleN_Set (N = engine number, 1-4) with parameter -4096 for full reverse and 0 for idle. Pete

It wasn't an "alternative" when I started -- the digital options came along well after the main layout was finished. And, no, no time recently. Regards Pete

AS2012 uses SimConnect, not FSUIPC or WideFS. Regards Pete

Best to aways use the "joy letter" facilities. Then FSUIPC will recognise devices by their name and unique GUID, and changes in joystick numbers won't then matter. Ah, if you are using buttons on a separate PC then joy letters are irrelevant. So, yes, after checking that it is still "1", and looks like 1001 or whatever via WideFS, just edit the INI file. Note that axes and POVs are not sent by WideFS. Really you'd be better off moving the device connection to the new PC. Editing the INI file would be the same amount of work either way, and maybe less if you used Joy Letters. Pete

Offset 0366 indicates whether you are on the ground or not. Pete

Automatic. Yes to the first, don't know to the second. Same as DynamcFrictions without the Dynamic bit. Regards Pete

Well, certainly the Broadcast is done every second so it seems likley related to that. But I don't understand the picture you provided because i don't speak the language, and translators don't work on images. If you can't fix the problem in Windows, you can tell WideServer not to send the Broadcasts and simply get WideClients to link by using the IP address and protocol parameters. Regards Pete

Sounds like you need to do some scaling or adjusting of the value your pot is sending. Without more information about how you are doing this, and what the NGX value needs to be, I can't really help further. Pete

FSUIPC forgets nothing. It is all stored in the INI file in your FSX modules folder! Maybe you are using aircraft specific settings and have loaded a different one? Next time check the INI file. Pete

Where are you looking? Have you tried "View mode", "View mode Rev", "View Type" and "View type rev"? They are all in the list. Pete

Typo, obviously. 69632 + 1 still equals 69633 as it always has done. ;-) Pete

Offset 07CC represents the A/P heading value in a value which ranges from 0 for 0 degrees up to 65535 for 359.99999 ... degrees. A typical Bodnar axis sends values -16383 to +16383, which as an unsigned value would look like 49153 to 16383, giving your 270 to 90 result. Try scaling the axis input by 2 (i.e. edit the axis assignment in the FSUIPC INI file to multiply the input by 2 -- details are in the Advanced User's guide). Pete

Yes. This error is significant: Problem! The signature check fails on the installed FSUIPC4.DLL. (Error ref 800B0001) Googling shows this: If you receive Windows Update error 800b0001, it means that Windows Update or Microsoft Update cannot determine the cryptographic service provider, I think that either the Cryptographic Servers is not running in your Windows installation (check with Task Manager -- the Service is called "CryptSvc" in Windows 7, probablt XP also), or it is running but your Windows installation is somehow corrupted. Regards Pete

The FSUIPC4 install log shows that FSUIPC4 is installed okay, so there's some sort of run-time problem. Maybe your DLL.XML is corrupted? Please first, though, check the FSX Modules folder for the FSUIPC4.LOG (not the Install log, the run-time log). If it is there, show it to me. If not then find your DLL.XML (in the same folder as the FSX.CFG file) and show that to me. Regards Pete

Yes, that would make sense. I assume it allows you to have the scenery loaded initially from a removeable or slower media, like a USB stick, but with FS copying it into a faster hard disk location when FS is loaded. However, I would have thought this would make start up slower -- though isn't there an option not to clear caches on exit? Where would you expect the sound to emanate? Maybe you have no sound device of the separate PC? Regards Pete

FSUIPC and WideFS is licensed to you, not to a PC. You can use it on any PC, provided it is you using it. Regards Pete

Hmm. Odd. always have worked. I assume you are using the latest FSUIPC4 version? I'll check here as soon as I've caught up with the backlog from my holiday ... Pete

Here: And I said I couldn't help without information, and mentioned which log to get as the first step. I've not seen a result of that request yet. Regards Pete

The answers to all your questions can be found in the FSUIPC documentation and the FAQ and Download Links subforums above. Pete

There are only two gear lever positions implemented in FS -- Gear Up and Gear Down, and those are the names of the controls. Look again in the FSUIPC Documents subfolder. The list of controls is there as a PDF. It is installed when you install FSUIPC, alongside all of the other documentation PDFs. You are not looking properly if you can't find it! Pete

SimConnect and FSX install location are not relevant. What might help determine what is wrong is the content of both the WideClient and WideServer log files. That is where both parts of WideFS log any details or difficulties. You can paste the contents in a message here. Pete

It just means you have a button programmed to send a control on "press" and a keypress on "release", or vice versa, which is quite legal but which cannot be edited in the options screen. You'd only get that if you'd pressed a button in the first place. I can't easily find it for you unless you give me a clue as to what joystick and button it was! Otherwise I'd need to read every line in the [buttons] section comparing each with every other to locate the pair referring to the same button! The values for joystick and button numbers ARE displayed when you press the button and get that message, so it's easy for you to tell. Then you only need to look in the [buttons] section (or the relevant one if Profiles or aircraft-Specific) for the lines containing that joy,button number (after the n=P, n=R or n=U part). Pete

It isn't yet as smart as I'd like, causing too much of a hesitation or pause wen a USB device does have a disconnect/reconnect event. I hope to find a better method, if not today then when I return from holiday on 1st April. [LATER] Okay, FSUIPC 4.865 is as good as I can make it. The hesitation is still there --- in fact it is there no matter whether FSUIPC does anything or not, so it is inherent in the Windows or FSX side of things in any case. 4.865 logs a message when it does the reconnection action.
