  1. I'm trying to setup my Saitek X52 to toggle the taxi lights on/off and the landing lights.​  I'm using fsuipc4 to do this.  I set button 12 to toggle taxi lights and button 13 for landing lights.  However, they don't work.  My other buttons work, elevator trim, landing gear, flaps, condition levers...  I don't know why I can't get these to work.  My pmdg 737, 777 work, as well as my small planes.  I've even tried offsets for them in fsuipc.  And I do have the register version of fsuipc.  I would appreciate any help.  I can still just click with the mouse.

  2. After down loading the zip file, I try to extract it and I get an error message. 

     

    Extracting to "C:\Users\Dad\AppData\Local\Temp\wzeebf\"

    Use Path: yes Overlay Files: yes

    Warning: skipping "Schedule Creator TRACON 11 RFN.exe". The 32-bit CRC stored in the local header for this file is not the same as the 32-bit CRC stored in the central header

     

    And it won't extract.  The new one for tower 2011 opened just fine.

  3. I can't unzip schedule creator 15 v3 rfn.exe.  When I try I get an error message: warning: skipping "schedule creator 15 v3 rfn.exe". the 32-bit crc stored in the local header for the file is not the same the 32-bit crc stored in the central header.  The when I say yes and look at the details I get:  extracting to (then a temp location) then user path: yes overlay files: yes.  Then I get the warning message I gave at the beginning.  Any Ideas what's wrong?  I've downloaded several times, but the same problem.  I've downloaded and unzipped other zip files with no problems.  I'm running win 7 pro 64-bit.  I really like the idea of making cargo schedules.

  4. I've started using my feelthere 737 again and got everything programed to my Saitek x52 stick and peddles.  I have the landing gear assigned to button 4.  It works fine.  Since not everything in the VC works on the 737 I assigned buttons 8, 9 and 10, 11 to 8 mixture 1 rich, 9 mixture 1 lean, 10 & 11 the same for mixture 2.  When I tested out on a flight all was good.  However, after parking and pressed button 9 to shut down engine 1, it also toggled the landing gear.  When I pressed again the gear lever went back down.  I've looked at everything I could look at and can't see why mixture 1 lean causes the landing gear to toggle.  The landing gear is assigned to G on button 4.  button 9 is P0, c65987,0, which is mixture 1 lean.  And that's the only one that does it.   I attached the log file.

    fsuipc log.zip

  5. I'm having trouble with fsuipc 4.  I have shortaircraftnameok=yes and profiles=yes.  However, when I change planes I.E. iFly or PMDG 77, I have to open up fsuipc and do like my buttons and switches and click on profiles.  It will either select the plane or I have to pick it from the list.  Shouldn't it be automatic that it picks the correct plane?

  6. I got fsx a couple of weeks ago and purchased fsuipc4 (I have fsuipc3 for fs9).  I went to create a mouse macro but the box that should be showing while I did the mouse clicks wasn't there.  I thought I saw it flash on the screen for a second then went away.  I've done them in fs9.  I was making one for my iFly 737 plane and was in the 2d panel. I'm running win7 pro 64 and 8gigs ram.  Any ideas.

  7. I have ifly 737 and to turn on ground power you have to go to the menu and pick ifly then the ifly 737 then ground commands then click on ground power and ground air to make it available. I think I have the first part done. I can have it open up to the part that shows the ground stuff. But how can I have it click on the ground power available and ground air available. Those are just click spots. Any ideas?

  8. OK, I've added the gear up/down to the ini file:

    [buttons]

    ButtonRepeat=20,10

    1=P0,7,K90,8

    2=P0,6,C65861,0

    3=P0,11,C66299,0

    4=P0,10,C66298,0

    5=P0,1,K73,24

    6=P0,5,C66066,0

    7=P0,13,K68,9

    8=P0,12,K85,9

    9=P0,4,K71,8

    So what should I do to get the nose gear light to go on/off when I raise/lower the landing gear. I'll check out the other thing about autopilot. Too bad you can't specify a particular model of a plane instead of a specific plane, ie level-d winglet model instead of ual level-d winglet. That would save having to open up each aircraft and appling the assignment you want.

  9. Here is the section from the ini file:

    [JoyNames]

    AutoAssignLetters=No

    0=Saitek X52 Flight Controller

    0.GUID={14FC7E10-128B-11DF-8001-444553540000}

    1=Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals

    1.GUID={588A8F90-3108-11E0-8001-444553540000}

    [buttons]

    ButtonRepeat=20,10

    1=P0,7,K90,8

    2=P0,6,C65861,0

    3=P0,11,C66299,0

    4=P0,10,C66298,0

    5=P0,1,K73,24

    6=P0,5,C66066,0

    7=P0,13,K68,9

    8=P0,12,K85,9

    I've also been trying to figure out how to disenguage the autopilot with buttons. Most of the planes I fly are ie ifly, level-D, pmdg. Z doesn't work with these type of aircraft. I just need to toggle the disenguage bar.

  10. I had autobrake working through fsuipc using the home key for increase and end key for decrease. Then I had my saitek x52's t3 hooked to home and t4 to end. Then I realised that that was also the 7 & 1 on the keypad with numlock off. I then changed them to ctl I and ctl D. But now I can use t4 to decrease but t3 won't increase pass disarm. I had it working but now it doesn't. even if I use the mouse. It's that way on all of my pss 757 and T7. And I do have the registered fsuipc. Here is what is in my ini file.

    I don't know why it didn't work this time.

  11. I'm trying to have my FsMeteo display open when I press a key. Here's what it looks like in one of my panels:

    [window14]

    file=d:\fsmeteo\767fsmwd.bmp

    size_mm=395,448

    windowsize_ratio=1

    position=0

    visible=0

    ident=125

    gauge00=767fsmwd, 0, 0,390

    I tried using the panel ID toggle or even open, but it didn't work. I put in the parameter 125 since that is the id of my fsmeteo display window. Is there away to do it? I have a toggle button in my 2d panels, but need a key combo to have it open in vc mode, since most of my panels use up 1-9.

  12. I'm having the same problem. I have the registered version. My saitek cybor gold stick went out and I got the saitek st290 pro. Now when I start fs9 and select a plane I have to go in and recalibrate. If I don't and I start moving the throttle the engines rev up fast and the rudder moves too quickly. Once I calibrate the throttle is smooth and so is the rudder. I also do the elevators and airones while I'm at it.

  13. I added the new runway for simflyers to the AFCAD with the ils's and correct frequencies. The AIs use it with no problem, but the atc won't let me select it. It was having me land on 36L visual and my only other choices were 36R, 35 and 17. Now I selected 35, so it told me 36L side step 35L. Now it new I had changed the old 17/35 to 17R/35L but when requesting another runway it just had 17 or 35 no L/R. Is there a file that needs to be updated so atc will let you pick new runways? Cause for AI it does know 35R or 35L.

    Did a test. When I was west of KMCO it told me to fly downwind to 17L which is the new rwy. But it never gave me clearance to land. The other rwys would clear me to land after I went passed the end of the rwy. Also, when I looked at the nav section in AFCAD it still had 17/35 and I couldn't change them to 17R/35L, nor would it let me delete them cause they are stock ils's. Any help?
