FSUIPC and Go Flight Components

[Flying-Paul]

Hello friends!

I'm not really sure about the use of the program GFDisplay:

Do the displays of the GF Modules working correct if I use them with the GF-Software instead of programming through FSUIPC? So that in this case I have no need for GFDisplay??

Thanks for your answers!

Best regards

Paul

Of course you haven't. You have no need of programming GoFlight buttons in FSUIPC either.

If you only need the functions GoFlight provides by default, what's the problem? The provisions in FSUIPC and GFDisplay are only for those who want to do something different. If you don't, then I'm not sure of the point of the original question.

Hi Pete!

Thanks for immedate reply.

I need to update FSUIPC and WideFS because I use SB3.

Another question: I have a twin-throttle-quadrant in use and had some problems to make all the axes working properly.

Can I make a copy of the fsuipc.ini and store it back after having updated fsuipc, so that all functionality of my hardware is still provided?

At the moment I use FSUIPC 2.975

Tanks a lot for reply.

Best regards

Installing a new FSUIPC.DLL doesn't touch the INI file. There's no INI file provided with the package. Just replace the DLL when you update.

At the moment I use FSUIPC 2.975

Well, there are a lot of changes in the INI since then, but none that I know of will cause any problems when updating. If you want to be really sure, then move out the old INI file, let the new FSUIPC make a new one, then cut and paste the Joystick sections from your old one into your new one.
