Thanks Pete for your answer -
My problem with Prepar3D, v2 - doing ILS landings, won't capture glideslope - worked fine in v1.4 - with several planes -
The MakeRunways is the only thing that is different.........so grasping for ideas.

Is it useful / necessary to run the MakeRunways with Prepar3D, V2?
Thank you.

Hi Pete,
If I understand correctly??, I would click in the button box, then click a button on the joystick and then it would enter, and from there it would un-gray the boxes?
I'll re-read that section again and see what I had missed.
Thanks so much,
Tom

Hello Pete or others,
Thanks for your help the other day on Throttle not being recognized.
I've been reading the manual on the buttons and switches tab in FSUIPC.
When I go to the tab, I cannot get anything to enter and some of the areas are grayed out, like FS Control?
I do have an entry in the .ini. Am I missing a step?
Thanks so much,
Tom

Hello folks,
Just found this lua and want to use with my X52Pro.
I went through instructions for additions to .ini, etc. I went into FSUIPC and set up axis for Throttles 1 & 2, Same in Joystick Calibration.....however,
when I went to the section "Buttons & Switches" everything was "grayed out" and would not let me put the parameters in. Any idea on this?
Thanks so much,
Tom

Hi Pete,
I did fine two entries in registry - must have been from some time ago..and yes, old .ini was deleted.
Thanks so very again -

Hi Pete,
Just an update:
I spent quite some time reading the Axis and JS Calibration section of the manual.
I went back into FSUIPC and still had the same issue of throttle not being recognized.
I then deleted FSUIPC, also went into registry and cleaned out instances, rebooted.
Re-installed FSUIPC and was able to get axis and js calibration to work, and it's working fine...go figure.
THANK you for all of your help and patience.
Have a blessed one.

Hello again Pete,
I've also attached the FSUIPC Axis Panel and Joystick Cal Panel Photo.
Couple of FYI's - I changed the X52 to another USB Port and it was recognized and worked fine.
I think I understood you to say that If I use FSUIPC for Joystick/Throttle calibration, which shows it's Z, then in my FS Control Panel it has to be another different assignment. When I clicked on the
Throttle Axis in FS and moved my throttle, it automatically put in Z....is this wrong?

Hello Pete,
First, thank you for your quick response.
I really don't know what "I" have done. I'm still using the same usb port for the X52. FSUIPC reads my brake pedals fine. As stated, it was working fine on Wed. eve., fired up on Thurs., and the problem was there.
I assigned the throttle so I could achieve more precise movement (which I love) and to have a reverse function on the x52. It worked...so, in summary, "me" screwed something up.
Tom
Tried to attach my .ini file and it would not take it. Do I rename it ?
-
My registered version has been working fine until this evening. I opened P3d for a flight and had no throttles whatsoever.
I opened FSUIPC and went to my joystick calibration, item 3, and there were all 0's. I clicked "set", moved throttle and nothing happened.
I went in the console of P3d and assigned the throttle to the axis, and had throttles.
I'm using the Saitek X52Pro.
Here's what I've done:
1. Shut down P3d, removed the FSUIPC .ini to let rebuild.
2. Checked the dll.xml and the FSUIPC was registered
3. Reinstalled the Saitek Drivers and Software - and the X52 is recognized and operates in the Control Panel
4. Just for the heck, I moved the prepar3d.config out and let it build a new one (there were no entries in the config relating to FSUIPC)
Restarted, and the same behavior is present...FSUIPC no longer recognizes the throttle....
I "can" go to axis and it reads it ok
I have searched for an answer and have found none.
No other software or changes have been made that would affect this..IMO..no Win updates or changes etc.
Your help would be highly appreciated..since using this registered version for a month or so, just can't do without it. Just Great.
Have a blessed one,
Tom

Hello fellow simmers,
I have had the CH53 for about a month now and love it - Functions fine with FSX and Vista.
The "only" problem I have is the lighting in the VC. I go through the panels and turn the lights on - BUT, they're just too dim. Is there a way in the Panel.cfg or somewhere that you can make an adjustment.
I love flying at night and the VC makes it almost prohibitive. You help would be most appreciated.

Was just about to post about the CH53 VC Lighting - would this "tweak" work with the CH53 also?
I assume you add to the config file under lighting section - ?
Thanks, - what timing!

Just purchased and am very happy -
Quick question:
Is the auto-pilot functional ? and if show -mine will not turn on?
Thanks in advance.

Can not find Dll.XML
in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
Posted
Werner,
C:\Users\Name(your PC)\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D\ - there you will see the "dll.xml file.
Open it and look for the FSUIPC Entry...IF it's not there, you will have to manually add.
Should "look" like this:
Launch.Addon
Name FSUIPC 4
Disabled False
Path Modules\FSUIPC4_Loader.dll
IF indeed it is there, "me don't know".
