One hint to get you going. Program all the buttons for one shift state in FSUIPC's Buttons page in FS -- that's easy enough after all. Ignored? no. you lost me even ont he first line. What is this ONE SHIFT STATE? Don't need to answer that cause I will be lost. I think I am going to bite the bullet and go against someone's recommendations and install the ch managaer. much easier. thx

Is there not a simple program that has been created to modify all this for you? Because all these numbers and things you guys are throwing at me mean nothing. I appreciate you trying to help but I am no further ahead than I was from my first post. I fly planes for a living. I am no good at programming. I am suprised there isn't any easy way in the FSUIPC in flight sim to assign a shift key to a button so you can double up on buttons. This going into the .ini is a big pain in the butt.

Ok can someone help me. I just want to know what string of letter,numbers, whatever i need to make to TOP HAT button a "shift+backspace" and also i need to make a button a shift button so when i press it AND my TOP HAT button it will send a "shift+5" . Thats all. simple.

I am sure it is there. Just beyond my comprehension.

Hi Pete. Its not that your material is poorly worded. Its that this is FSUIPC for advanced users. Iam not advanced in any way when it comes to programming BUT i doneed to add this feature to my fsuipc. I read and reread your document and its beyond my comprehension

I did take a look at the advanced users guide and it's all greek to me. Can someone tell me how this is done? I just want one button on my controller to be a "shift" button so that it doubles up every other button i press while pressing the "shift" button so i can have double the abmount of usable buttons. So when i push the HAT button to the 12 oclock position is pans up but but when i push the HAT button forward IN ADDITION to the key assigned for "shift" i get the overhead panel. Thanks!

BUT what i am trying to do is use my hat switch for the panning around AND use the UP hat switch while press the other key (which i assigned for SHIFT) to show my overhead panel in LDS767 which is SHIFT 5. how do i set this up. I am having troubles. It seems i can only use the up hat switch for one key. Thanks

DISREGARD Joe.

Thanks Joe. Its kind of working for me. Now when after i clicked reload all buttons, i go into fsuipc and press my hat button (120 oclock position) and it asks me what key i want to assign to it. I put shift+5 for my overhead on LDS767. What other settings do i put in there (like "hold while pressed,etc) because all i get now is the main panel totally disappearing in the background (you can even see it. all you see is the blue screen behind the overhead) and my over head panel appearing in the foreground BUT when i release my HAT key the overhead disappears and main panel reappears.

Being the not so programmer i am, I am wondering if someone can help me out. I am trying to assign a key on my ch yoke as a SHIFT button so i can double up some other buttons on fsuipc. I know i can use the CH programs to do this but i do not want to install them. Thanks guys!
