Hi Pete

My setup in FS9 mainly involves flying iFly 737s.

All "joysticks" are set up/calibrated through FSUIPC (with FS9 joystick disabled.

I recently adopted the profiles option and set up all the axes and buttons on a 737-700.

I then added a few more aircraft liveries (all 737-700s) and all went well.

The problem arose when I loaded 737-800 and 737-900 by ticking the box as usual but was disappoited to discover

That although all axes and some buttons operated ok, those buttons (mainly on my home made MCP), which were configured using a mouse macro

did not function at all.

I would appreciate your help in this. I have attached a copy of my FSUIPC.cfg.

Mouse macros are completely dependent on the code in the Gauge modules being used. They are actually calls directly into code. If those aircraft have different gauge modules you'll need different mouse macros.

Hi Pete

Thanks very much for your response. It is much appreciated.

However does this mean I need to creat further profiles or will the new macro settings work with

the original profie?

Hi Pete and Andy

Just got my 737-800 calibrated. A bit of a slog for an old guy but well worth it. Only another five models to go.

Many thanks for your generous help.

Regards

Jim McQueen
