CH controllers and P3D v3 and FSUIPC

[Bigmack]

Hello Pete

I hope all is well with you. I'm have a resgisterd version of FSUIPC. I'm using v4947c. I'm pulling my hair out here trying to assign button and axis. For some reason P3D won't assign anything correctly and when I disable controls in p3d and try to asign everything ih FSUIPC, it doesn't recognize or reads any of my controllers either. Any suggestions or help is well welcomed.

I'm considering asking LM for a refund on the new V3.

 

Thanks

You mean it doesn't see them in the assignments tab (Axes or Buttons & Switches)? Does it list them in the Log file or the INI file at all? Does JoyIDs show them (see the Download Links subforum, useful programs).

 

Using P3Dv3 as it is at present, FSUIPC won't see anything in the calibrations tab unless it is assigned in the axis assignments tab -- see the pinned thread at the top of this frum.

My controllers are listed in the ini. file however when I go to the controllers tab in FSIUPC, and move my throttles or rudders I see no movement or reaading when I press the set button. Can I cpoy the info over from my FSX ini which I been using for quit some time.

This means they are not assigned! The calibration tab (which must be what you mean by "controllers tab"), only provides calibration for axes already properly assigned to the function you want to use them for. That is performed in the axes tab (or,  for anything other than the current P3Dv3) in the sim).!

Of course. That's what you should have done anyway. But if, in FSX, you had the control axes assigned in FSX, not in FSUIPC, that still won't work, because P3Dv3 currently has serious faults with its assignments. 

 

PLEASE please do read the pinned thread at the top of this Forum about this very subject!
