Sorry for that - never worked with the log function until today... ;-) Here comes what it says after switching on the mentioned option: FSUIPC4.zip

Pete, thanks for your quick reply. I downloaded it because I wasn't sure if there were some updates in it or whatever. It's really obviously that I need more thrust to get the aircraft moving again after hitting the brakes: I spooled up the A320 engines to about 40% N1 and stopped the aircraft with the foot brakes. 10 seconds after releasing them again I have about 1 or 2 kts speed. Then I set the parking brake and 10 seconds after releasing it I had about 13 kts speed. But anyway, I just enabled LUA logging, restarted FSX and put the A320 on a runway. This is the DynamicFriction.log which was generated: ********* LUA: "DynamicFriction" Log [from FSUIPC version 4.929] ********* 88765 System time = 05/03/2014 13:52:22, Simulator time = 22:50:54 (21:50Z) 88765 LUA: beginning "D:\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\DynamicFriction.lua" 357258 System time = 05/03/2014 13:56:50, Simulator time = 22:54:34 (21:54Z) ********* LUA execution terminated: Log Closed ********* As far as I can see, there is nothing unusual... OK, I will try this out this evening - have some work to do first ;-)

Hi Pete, hi all, just registered within the forum because I have a strange problem with the DynamicFriction.lua and hope to get some help here. First of all, I am running FSX on a Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit System. Latest FSUIPC version (4.929) is installed and registered. Mostly I fly Aerosoft's Airbus X Extended, but the problem is the same with all other aircrafts, even the default ones, which I just loaded the first time ever to test this out ;-) I downloaded the LUA Package, copied the DynamicFriction.lua into the Main FSX/Modules folder and wrote this: [Auto] 1=Lua DynamicFriction into the fsuipc.ini. Anyway, the decreased friction is noticeable when I start taxiing after completing pushback and startup. But after hitting the brakes for lets say only one second during taxiing, the friction is reset to default and I have to use much more thrust to keep the aircraft rolling than before hitting the brakes. What I also discovered is that when I now set the parking brake for a short moment and release it again, the friction is again decreased and I can continue taxi with significant lower thrust - until I need to hit the brakes the next time. Then it's the same as described before: friction reset to default, after setting the parking brake friction decreased, and so on... First of all I thought of a miscalibration of my CH Pedals, which I use for braking - but they are properly calibrated (FSX default, not with FSUIPC), and the red "braking" message on the left bottom of the screen is not showing up as long as I dont touch them... also FSUIPC changed the fsuipc.ini automatically to... [Auto] 1=Lua DynamicFriction [LuaFiles] 1=DynamicFriction ...which I think should be correct. So, any ideas to get the friction patch working without setting the parking brake 20 times on the way from the gate to the runway? Best regards Marcus
