Hi,

 

i have a Problem. I have bought a serialkey of FSUIPC today, because i had problems with my Saitek Cyborg Evo with WIndows 8.1. Some users in a Forum recommend me to buy FSUIPC. 

But now i can't assign the axis in FSUIPC.

 

It looks like this in the Picture.

 

Please help!!!

It will look exactly like that until you move an axis which it can recognise. If it doesn't see any axes then you have some driver which is preventing it, or your device doesn't actually have any real DirectInput axes.

 

Does FS recognise any axes? FSUIPC is only using the same DirectInput facilities as FS.

The Problem is, FUSIPC detected the Joystick, when i use it via FSX... But under Windows 8.1 the Joystick will disconnect after a while, so some users recommend to use FSUIPC.

If FSUIPC detects the joystic it will show the axes.

 

Sorry, I may be misunderstanding you. Perhaps you can give more information?

The Problem ist...

 

When I have calabrate the Joystick via FSX, then it shows in Joystick Calabration Menu the Moving of the axis. But I have configure the Joystick via FSUIPC; because I use Windows 8.1 and  under Windows 8.1 the Joystick will disconnect in FSX after a while.

 

I use the Saitek Cyborg Evo.

FSUIPC uses the same DirectInput system to read the joysticks as FSX, so I would have thought the results would be the same.

 

Does FSUIPC list your joystick, with its allocated number (0-15) and its "GUID", in the FSUIPC4.INI file? It'll be in a section like this:

 

[JoyNames]

AutoAssignLetters=No

0=Saitek Pro Flight Throttle Quadrant

0.GUID={B0ABDEC0-6DA5-11E0-8001-444553540000}

here is the Entry in my FSUIPC:

 

[JoyNames]

AutoAssignLetters=No

0=Saitek Cyborg USB Stick

0.GUID={FFD83740-5D49-11DF-8005-444553540000}

 

Okay. That's good. Now in the FSUIPC Axes tab, when you move the levers sufficiently (from one extreme to the other), they should be recognised and you can assign them.

 

Regards

I just tried it and it does not work :(

 

Hmm. Sounds like there's a Saitek driver blocking it. Are its buttons recognised in the Buttons & Switches tab?

 

Try this: add these two lines to the [General] saection of the FSUIPC4.INI file:

 

Debug=Please

LogExtras=x200008

 

Then run FSX and try again in the Axes tab.

 

Then close FSX, and paste both your FSUIPC4.INI and FSUIPC4.LOG files back into a message here.

 

Regards

      625 #### Initialising Dlrectinput Axis Scanning ...

      625    Trying: "HKCU\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaProperties\PrivateProperties\DirectInput\VID_06A3&PID_0464\Calibration\0"

      625    Found correct joystick Id 0

      625    ... and a "GUID" value

      625    DirectInput8Create failed, return = 80040154

 

Aha. There's the problem:

 

DirectInput8Create failed, return = 80040154

 

There's another thread featuring a Saitek device with the exact same problem. See here:

 

http://forum.simflight.com/topic/76089-directinput8create-failed-return-80040154/

 

FSUIPC is reporting an error occurring in Windows when it tries to access the device as a DirecInput device.

 

I am now suspecting an incompatibility between Win8.1 and certain Saitek devices. You could try uninstalling the device (frm the Windows Control Panel-System-Device Manager list), ensuring you also remove its driver if possible, then re-booting the PC and letting it be found again.

SLtill net working :(

 

I'm strongly suspecting a Win8.1 bug here. FSUIPC cannot actually manufacture such an error -- "class not registered". FSUIPC doesn't need to register classes itself, that part of the systems job, classifying devices and the like. It seems some incompatibility between Win8.1 and Saitek.

Okay. What do you recommend?

 

I've avoided Win8 entirely. Win7 is the best version of Windows ever and I'm sticking with it.

 

Sorry, I've no other answer. You could try repairing or reinstalling Windows, or rolling back to some previous restore point.

Okay...

 

May does it help when I use the FSUIPC_LOADER?

 

You could try it. All that does is delay the startup a little, to avoid clashes with other add-in programs.
