[FSX Locks Up in FSUIPC Key Presses Tab]

When in the section for assigning Key Presses, FSX locks up every time as soon as I start to enter in any field. I then have to go to the task manager and end FSX.

Any idea why this would happen?

Thanks a lot,

[Possible to assign joystick buttons to set coms']

Sorry Pete, I completely forgot about the drop down assignments list in FSUIPC. These "senior moments" are coming on much too frequesntly lately. I will check tonight.

Thanks again,

Howard

[Possible to assign joystick buttons to set coms']

Well Pete, I did first look in the FSX assignments and could not find any relative commands to increase and/or decrease the frequencies for either the units or the fractions.

[Possible to assign joystick buttons to set coms']

Pete,

If it is possible, could you please give an example on setting the Saitek throttle buttons to set the com frequencies?

Thanks a lot,

Howard Bloom

[Utilizing more than one mode?]

Thanks Pete. I did find the thread you referred to. That, along with the advanced manual, is going to take some serious reading. At least I now know that it is possible.

Thanks again,

Howard

[Utilizing more than one mode?]

Hi Pete,

I am using the Saitel Pro Yoke & Throttles, which are capable of using 3 modes. Is it possible to program the 3 modes within the FSUIPC software, and if so, how? I searched the forum and couldn't find this topic.

Thank you and best regards,

Howard

[Greyed out options?]

Hi Peter,

Why are the options greyed out on the 'Buttons & Switches" tab?

Attached are snapshots of the FSUIPC applicable screen and the Game Controllers screen in the Control Panel, indicating I am using the CH Control Manager software to make assignments to mycontrollers.

Thanks,

Howard

[FSUIPC with CH Control Manager?]

Hi Pete,

If I am using the CH Control Manager in mapped mode in FSX, can I still program the joystick axes and buttons in FSUIPC?

Thanks,

Howard

[Lost registration info]

Hi Pete,

Sorry to bother you, but I just installed a new system and I cannot locate my FSUIPC registration. :cry: Could you please resend it to me?

Thanks a lot,

Howard

[FSUIPC and CH Control Manager?]

Thank you for your replies and help. I am off to experiment.......again.

[FSUIPC and CH Control Manager?]

Hi Pete,

If I am using the CH Control Manager software in mapped mode, will FSUIPC still see my CH Yoke and Throttle and will I be able to assign keystrokes and axis assignments within FSUIPC?

Thanks a lot,

Howard

[FScene & Ultimate Terrain USA? (solved)]

Thanks a lot for the reply. Also, which program should be installed first, FSScene or Ultimate Terrain?

[FScene & Ultimate Terrain USA? (solved)]

Will FScene USA work with Ultimate Terrain USA?

Thanks a lot,

[Use on a Notebook?]

I am going to purchase Micro flight. Can it be used on a Notebook using the keyboard? Also, are there any 'joystick' type devices available for a notebook?

Thanks,

[Where to get the Mi-17?]

Thank you.

[Where to get the Mi-17?]

Where can I purchase the Mi-17?

Thanks a lot,

[Wide FS & MaxiVista?]

Thanks Pete-

Yes, it is Wide FS that I need and was confused with wideview. I want to use FS Commander on the lap top, and Wide FS, I believe, will do that job just fine.

Thanks again,

Howard

[Wide FS & MaxiVista?]

Hi Pete,

I just received a new lap top, and I, of course, want to incorporate it with my FS program.

I guess I am a little confused, again. Are Wide FS and MaxiVista used together, are they complimentary or do they both provide the same function and do the same thing?

Thanks a lot,

Howard

[FSWHIFPS.ZIP or HIFPSV2.ZIP?]

Hi Chris-

Thanks you again for your wonderful programs. I just love Active Sky and now FS Sky World 2004.

I am now the 'HIFPSV2.ZIP' file. Should I switch to the newer 'FSWHIFPS.ZIP' file?

Thanks you,

Howard

[Setting Reverse Thrust with the new CH TQ?]

This is the new CH Throttle Quadrant with 6 axes, and each has a detent. The area travelled below the detent is for reverse thrust and/or braking.

The idle value (-14518) is the value at the detent as shown in the FSUIPC page with 4 throttles. I did not use the page 1 throttle setting at all.

I will try again tonight and see if I can figure this whole thing out. :wink:

Thanks again,

Howard

[Setting Reverse Thrust with the new CH TQ?]

Hi Peter,

I know this subject has a long history, but I just purchased the CH Throttle Quadrant and was callibrating the TQ in FSUIPC and these are the values for each of the 4 throttles:

Rev -16065, Idle -14518, and Max +16065

Do these values look correct to you, in order to provide reverse thrust, where available? Am I supposed to set 'reverse thrust' anywhere else in order to achieve it?

I have not been successful getting Reverse Thrust to work, and I have also been discussing this with Bob Church, who, you know, authored the wonderful Control Manager software for CH. The values in CM after callibrating are:

Detent 240; Reverse 255; Maximum 0

Bob concurred that these numbers look good.

Thanks a lot,

Howard

[Emma Field Tour Release III nearly completed]

Where can I get the first 2 releases?

[Just Drivin' Around Emma...]

I don't have the "active scenery player" option in my menu either. :x

Howard

[EMMA VOR?]
