  1. Honestly, Pete, I don't know where everything went so wrong. But ultimately I appreciate your help and advice. I have bigger problems now though - seems my computer encountered a major operating system crash today! (What else could go wrong?! :blink: ) So after 2 hours on the phone with tech support I've had to wipe/reformat my HD. Lost all my programs, files, FSUIPC, the works. This hasn't been my week for computers :D . So at some point in the next couple days I'll be back to be installing everything again and hopefully things will go smoothly! Thanks again though - awfully generous of you to step in and help. Best regards, Todd
  2. One more thing... above you mentioned that all I need to do is assign in FSX but calibrate in FSUIPC. I read an FSUIPC "How To" yesterday that told me to unassign ALL controllers in FSX and use FSUIPC for ALL axis assignments and buttons. Could that have been my big issue? I'll try as you said and assign in FSX and calibrate in FSUIPC only.
  3. By programming I meant just trying to assign axes, buttons, etc. I'm not tech savvy by any means, so I used that word for lack of a more appropriate one ;) Below is my DLL.XML file. Additionally, I reworded the original file, reinstalled FSUIPC, and it seems to work now. Is that all it took? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252" ?> - <SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0"> <Descr>Launch</Descr> <Filename>dll.xml</Filename> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad> - <Launch.Addon> <Name>Object Placement Tool</Name> <Disabled>True</Disabled> <ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad> <Path>..\Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK\SDK\Mission Creation Kit\object_placement.dll</Path> </Launch.Addon>- <Launch.Addon> <Name>Traffic Toolbox</Name> <Disabled>True</Disabled> <ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad> <Path>..\Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK\SDK\Environment Kit\Traffic Toolbox SDK\traffictoolbox.dll</Path> </Launch.Addon>- <Launch.Addon> <Name>Visual Effects Tool</Name> <Disabled>True</Disabled> <ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad> <Path>..\Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK\SDK\Environment Kit\Special Effects SDK\visualfxtool.dll</Path> </Launch.Addon>- <Launch.Addon> <Name>FSUIPC 4</Name> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <Path>Modules\FSUIPC4.dll</Path> </Launch.Addon> </SimBase.Document>
  4. Hello, I know I'm not the first to say this, but after installing and purchasing a registration key yesterday for FSUIPC I encountered TONS of problems while coordinating my setup between FSX and FSUIPC. It drove me to the near point of insanity. FInally at 1:00am I broke down, uninstalled FSX and FSUIPC, and went to bed. This morning I reinstalled FSX (not to program files, but to my own root C: drive), reinstalled FSUIPC, reobtained my registration key from my purchase yesterday, and reinstalled FSUIPC without a problem. I immediately began a free flight to work with FSUIPC again, but alas, I no longe have an "Add Ons" menu from the top of my screen. I deleted and reinstalled FSUIPC for a second time, it went without a hitch, recognized and accepted my registration key and all, but still no Add Ons menu or FSUIPC option while in-game. My "Modules" folder is present and I've scoured the Users Manual for help but I cannot seem to troubleshoot this problem on my own. It ran perfectly 24 hours ago, but today it is not being recognized at all after an uninstall/reinstall. I'd hate to say "to hell with it" and delete FSUIPC for good and lose out on the money I spent for the registration, so I hope someone is familiar with this problem and can help me. This 26 year old guy is starting to turn grey from the frustration ;) Thanks in advance to any and all who may be able to help. Todd
