I have nine GF modules: MCP-Pro; 2 x GF166A; GF46; 2 x RP48; T8; P8; LGT.
These are running FS9 (and FSX to a lesser extent!) with XP.
I have recently installed the Flight1 Super 80 (to FS9) and find some anomalies!
MCP-Pro, GF166s (Nav and Comms radios), GF46 (ADF, XPDR, Altimeter) and LGT (Gear, Flaps and Trim) all work fine.
The problems relate to switch and button assignments on the T8 and P8.
The T8 is assigned to Battery, Avionics, Fuel Pump and Engine starts/fuel run.
Using the T8 to switch on battery achieves nothing! However, switching on the battery from the aircraft panel button switches on the battery and lights up the T8 switch.
Similarly, various lights assigned to the P8 are not activating from the P8 but illuminate when activated from the panel buttons. Another example is pressing the P8 button assigned to Nav Lights, this switches on the Nav lights momentarily and illuminates the P8 button but on taking finger pressure off the button the GF indicator light goes out as do the Nav lights!!!
I have a fully paid licensed version of FSUIPC but (to my shame!) I can't get my head round it. What I need, I think, is a FSUIPC for Dummies manual! :oops:
Would some kind person be able to advise and point me in the right direction? :cry:
I also noticed the same difficulties with the DC-10 Collection (Just Flight/CLS) and some others (commercial) but have to say that ALL of the freeware aircraft and panels out there work perfectly. Does that mean that these commercial add-ons are utilising a different code from that of MSFS?
Soft landings to all.
