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

Sorry, no, there is no definitive answer. I don't know if it would help or not. All you can go by is the experience and reports of others. I wouldn't want you to waste your money on something you otherwise have no use for (though it does surprise me that you'd feel FSUIPC wasn't worthwhile for a multitude of other reasons).

 

Regards

Pete
