Hi all
Apologies if this topic has been raised before, but many users (me included) are suffering random joystick disconnects in Prepar3d v 2.0/ Win8 or 8.1. Lockheed Martin are aware of the problem and are working on a fix for 2.1 but this could take a while and for me the sim is unusable asis (disconnects on changing planes mid flight, going to a new airport, loading a flight etc).
A number of posters have reported that assigning joystick controls through FSUIPC solves the problem, but this doesn't work for everybody apparently.
Is there a definitive answer? I would happily register FPUIC if this would definitely solve the problem.
Help much appreciated
Hendrik
