Hi, best practice is to copy and paste the Name, eMail and Key you received when installing FSUIPC4 with latest installer Install_FSUIPC4964.zip when the registration window opens. (NEVER SHOW YOUR REGISTRATION INFO PUBLIC) Thomas

Hi, maybe you have an overload of an USB port of the PC or USB-HUB, meaning a current overload of the port (max 500 mA). Maybe try spraying some devices over different USB ports. Thomas

Hi, make sure Controller's are deactivated in FS/ P3D. Thomas

Hi, what is the original file name then in that folder, to compare? <File>ORBX\FTX_NA\FTX_NA_CRM05_SCENERY\scenery\ADE_FTX_CRM_16W_Little_Goose_Lock_&_Dam.BGL</File> Thomas

Hi, How do I get to the Traffic Limiter option ? This is the Traffic Limiter Option. [Traffic Limiter] TrafficLimit=0 GroundPreference=50 PlannedAirportsPreference=50 AirportPreference=50 NearerPreference=50 TargetFrameRate=0 The value 0 will disable the Traffic Limiter (Option). Even if traffic set to 0, I still get unstable, & CTD. Best would be as always to provide your FSUIPC4.ini file and the FSUIPC4.log file, both located in the Modules folder. Just copy and paste its FULL content into your message here. AirCraftManager has been around for some time. I guess it does something similar as Traffic Limiter. As I said I still don't have an idea what that program is doing. A search on google didn't help either ... Thomas

Somewhere between 4.957 and 4.957n as in its changes pdf: - 28. A Traffic Limiter option is now provided But there is no download link because older versions are not supported. If the setting as described is set to 0 (zero) , it will not do anything (TrafficLimit=0). If it still does interfere please describe exactly what are the symptoms. In which way is AirCraftManager app involved, I would have guessed it manages only Aircrafts? Thomas

Hi, to make changes to FSUIPC before FS/ P3D has fully loaded can only be made in FSUIPC INI file, but of course not while it is loading. So only before FS/ P3D starts or after it has been fully started. Reload all buttons will also reload all controller and axes in case of reassignments (joystick/ controller). Reload all keys will reload all defined keys and also related macros. Thomas

Hi, you will just have a Firewall problem in windows that blocks the WideFS communication. That happens special when you change your network and special the router. Make sure WideClient is not blocked in Windows Firewall. Thomas

Hi, ups I did misread the version. SimConnect must be overloaded / stalled by something. What did change in the setup, new add-ons ...? Thomas

But you can not run that way, neither P3D nor FSUIPC4 will work correct. Thomas

Hi, that looks a bit odd ! You're running the P3D.exe version 3.3.5.17625 with the latest installed version 3.4.22.19868 and its DLL's, how did you do that? You should see as well the correct EXE version, i.e.: ********* FSUIPC4, Version 4.964 (1st March 2017) by Pete Dowson ********* Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit reported as Build 14393, Release ID: 1607 (OS 10.0) Prepar3D.exe version = 3.4.22.19868 Thomas

Hi, please always copy and paste to your message the actual FSUIPC log file after FS/ P3D was closed, with full content. Your INI file shows only Throttle1 assigned and calibrated. Thomas

Hi, please copy and paste always the full content of the FSUIPC log file into your message, not only a part. The FSUIPC version you use, 4.926 is 3 years old and not compatible with latest P3D version at all and not supported. Please update to latest version first Install_FSUIPC4964.zip and if the problem persists please copy and paste the full content of the log file. Thomas

Hi, as you can find on page 60 in FSUIPC4 User Guide.pdf in Modules\FSUIPC Documents\ folder by searching for 'Limiter': Appendix: The Traffic Limiter facility The Traffic Limiter is enabled by parameters in the INI file or, more easily, by setting the desired limit in the edit box for this on the lower right corner of the Miscellaneous options tab. [Traffic Limiter] TrafficLimit=0 GroundPreference=50 PlannedAirportsPreference=50 AirportPreference=50 NearerPreference=50 TargetFrameRate=0 The limit set to 0 switches the facility off. The other parameters determine how to decide which ones to delete when the limit is breached. ... Thomas

Hi, in case it is not listed in PMDG's SDK for NGX (PMDG_NGX_SDK.h) it will not be in FSUIPC. Thomas

Hi, when FS is running you only OpenFSUIIPC once, not every time you want to read / write. And you close only once as well when you close your app or FS has closed. Also you read/ write multiple Offsets with one Process call and not for every Offset, i.e. if ( !FSUIPC_Read(0x02BC, 4, &ias, &dwResult) || !FSUIPC_Read(0x0020, 4, &alt, &dwResult) || !FSUIPC_Read(0x31E4, 4, &ralt, &dwResult) || !FSUIPC_Process(&dwResult)) { ... } The Process call will return success If you think you process too many Offsets at the time then split into groups and process for each groupe, that takes only couple milli seconds but NOT seconds. Thomas

No, not integrated but may be there is some Lua file around in the forum that would be useful for it. Thomas

Hi, FSUIPC might be used to read FS data or not. If FSUIPC isn't used by aerosoft's software you use because they might use SimConnect instead then FSUIPC can not improve any behaviour of that software and if FSUIPC is used already by that software then it is as it is. The first place to look for a solution wood be areosoft forum, did you try that? Thomas

Hi, on Axis Assignment page on the right you can define the range, up to 10, and define below the control to be send. Depending on the action needed for that AC, Offset or may be a lua script, you can define those as well there. Thomas

Hi, first please update to latest FSUIPC4.963 , any older version cannot be supported. Btw - did you re-assign the axis in your new PC or is it still the INI file entries from the older PC? Thomas

Hi, not the manual is 15 years old but that part for that facility because there was never a need to change that as it works perfect correct and so there was never the need to change that part of the manual. The Point is that I as well as Pete misread your answer and changing of the subject where still in mind is the headlined problem. Don't forget where you might deal with your problem maybe for hours, Pete deals with all problems at the same time and tries to help to solve them and does that well know PERFECTLY WELL. For your clear question, the value you use is wrong. As the manual clearly states (page 23) you need to add 8, so it is not 16 for ALT but 24. 8 Normal (add this in anyway) 16 Alt (take care with this one—it invokes the Menu) When defining direct the Button to Key in FSUIPC menu you will also get 1=P0,4,K13,24 -{Key press: alt+Rtn}- (P0,4 is just in my case here) Also make sure the added line KeyboardFocus=Yes for the INI file goes to [Buttons] section. Thomas

Hi, they can be both connected. Check the FSUIPC4 User Guide.pdf in ..\Modules\FSUIPC Documents\ folder page 23+ (User profiles for all control settings). You can select the AC you want to use with one or the other Joystick/ controller. Thomas

Hi, FSUIPC can only see the controller when also Windows itself can see the controller as a game-controller / joystick in its own facility (system ... GameController). If it is a special controller that only works with additional software, it might not work. Check first if Windows can see it as a Gamecontroller / Joystick. Thomas

Hi, as the install log shows the installation is ok. Did you check the correct folder? C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\Modules\FSUIPC4.DLL When you register with the installer make sure you copy and paste your information rather than typing, give very often problems. Also all information has to be exactly is in your account at the time you bought the key! Also check that not a virus checker by mistake removes anything. Thomas

Hi, make sure you installed with the same privileges as FSX, i.e. as Administrator. Also check in FSX Modules folder the FSUIPC4.log file, copy and paste its FULL content to your messge. Thomas
