Hi Pete and Company,
After finally getting around to getting off my crappy old desktop and onto my new, much faster notebook, I've really discovered the true power of FSUIPC (even though I've had it for years). One issue, I've run into, however, is the seeming lack of intuitiveness in using the hat switch on my CH Products Flight Sim Yoke USB in different view modes. I've configured the hat switch as specified in John Cook's great tutorial, but that is completely dysfunctional in the spot view mode. Since the command on release is effectively to snap back to the forward view, this makes it very difficult to use the hat switch in spot plane mode, since as soon as I let go, it snaps back to the forward view (just for the sake of thoroughness, the command being input upon press is the PAN, with parameters 0, 45, 90, 135 etc..., and the View Forward is upon release).
So I guess my question is, is there any way to set it up such that I can use the View Forward, Forward Right etc... modes in the cockpit, and the PAN commands in spot mode? This is how it worked before I used FSUIPC for the control inputs, but I've become increasingly disillusioned with the FS interface. Up to this point, this issue is the only thing it handled better!
I'm running FSUIPC 3.999 on Windows 7.
Cheers,
Cameron
